                                     ORDER

   Adopted: September 30, 2010 Released: October 1, 2010

   By the Assistant Division Chief, Telecommunications Consumers Division,
   Enforcement Bureau:

    1. In this Order, which follows upon our Notice of Apparent Liability for
       Forfeiture ("NAL"), we determine that no forfeiture penalty should be
       imposed on Mechanicsville Telephone Company ("Mechanicsville
       Telephone").

    2. On July 19, 2007, the Enforcement Bureau issued an NAL  in the amount
       of $100,000 to Mechanicsville Telephone for its apparent violation of
       the Commission's rules by failing to prepare and maintain a CPNI
       certification that complies with section 64.2009(e). Consistent with
       section 503(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
       Mechanicsville Telephone was granted an opportunity to show, in
       writing, why no such forfeiture should be imposed.

    3. In response to the NAL, Mechanicsville Telephone provided evidence
       that it was in compliance with the Commission's CPNI rules.
       Accordingly, we find that no forfeiture should be imposed.

    4. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to section 503(b) of the
       Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and sections 0.111, 0.311, and
       1.80(f)(4) of the Commission's rules, the proposed forfeiture in the
       NAL WILL NOT BE IMPOSED.

    5. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order shall be sent by First
       Class Mail and Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested to
       Mechanicsville Telephone Company to its address of record.
