2. Procedural Background

Ordering Paragraph 3 of D.00-04-034 provides:

3. Pacific Bell shall pay MCI all reciprocal compensation, and accrued interest, withheld under Section VI.B.4.d of the co-carrier agreement, filed as Advice Letter 17879A, for termination of traffic routed to MFS/MCI customers who are internet service providers.

MCI filed a petition for modification of D.00-04-034 on April 4, 2001, which seeks clarification that the appropriate rate of interest is 10 percent per annum. Pacific filed an opposition on May 7 and MCI filed a reply on May 17.
