ORDER
Adopted: January 14, 2009 Released: January 15, 2009
By the Chief, Enforcement Bureau:
1. In this Order, we adopt a Consent Decree terminating an investigation
by the Enforcement Bureau (the "Bureau") into compliance by AT&T Inc.
("AT&T") with the terms and conditions contained in Applications of
AT&T Inc. and Dobson Communications Corporation for Consent to
Transfer Control of Licenses and Authorizations, Memorandum Opinion
and Order, 22 FCC Rcd 20295 (2007).
2. The Bureau and AT&T have negotiated the terms of a Consent Decree that
would terminate the Bureau's investigation. A copy of the Consent
Decree is attached hereto. Pursuant to the Consent Decree, AT&T
agrees, among other things, to make a Voluntary Contribution to the
United States Treasury in the total amount of $2,380,000 to resolve
the Commission's investigation.
3. We have reviewed the terms of the Consent Decree and evaluated the
facts before us. We believe that the public interest would be served
by approving the Consent Decree and terminating the investigation.
4. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to section 4(i) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the authority delegated by
section 0.111 and 0.311 of the Commission's Rules, that the attached
Consent Decree IS ADOPTED.

TERMINATED.
