ORDERED that the opinion issued February 1, 2019, be amended as follows:

Slip Op., p. 27, delete the last paragraph of the opinion and insert in lieu thereof: “Accordingly, because the Commission's adoption of the Tribal Facilities Requirement and Tribal Rural Limitation was arbitrary and capricious, the court grants the petitions and vacates the 2017 Lifeline Order as challenged in the petitions, and remands the matter to the Commission for a new notice-and-comment rulemaking proceeding."

The Clerk is directed to issue the amended opinion and to amend the judgment issued February 1, 2019. The Clerk is further directed to issue the mandate forthwith.
