Indeed, as AT&T points out, the commonly used term ``riser conduit'' itself demonstrates that conduit is not generally understood to refer only to underground facilities. Moreover, we recently amended Section 1.1402(i) of our Rules in another proceeding to clarify that ``conduits'' are not limited to underground facilities. In the Competitive Networks NPRM, we noted that the 1977 Pole Attachments Act Senate Report described duct or conduit systems as consisting of underground facilities. We conclude that this legislative history does not circumscribe our authority to apply Section 224 to in-building ducts, conduits,

  • this legislative history legally limits the plain language of the statute.99 Moreover, even if, as has been argued, electric utilities rarely own or control riser,100 this fact does not necessarily limit the application of section 224 to any situations where a utility does exercise such ownership or control.

In the Competitive Networks NPRM, we noted that the 1977 Pole Attachments Act Senate Report described duct or conduit systems as consisting of underground facilities. We conclude that this legislative history does not circumscribe our authority to apply Section 224 to in-building ducts, conduits,
