Bellsouth DSL in Chattanooga - Whose Lines?

BellSouth only has a co-lo with KMC in Chatt. They can give you full service
IF the building is lit with Bell fiber. Most of the buildings are KMC
though. Atlanta is their closet full facility.

Subject: Bellsouth DSL in Chattanooga - Whose Lines?

Does Bellsouth use its own infrastructure for consumer/business ADSL
(specifically in Chattanooga, TN), or does it rely on someone else's lines
to get from the local central office to the nearest peering exchange? I've
seen outfits like Covad use Exodus/C&W, but I'm imagining a RBOC like
BellSouth prefers to use its own infrastructure.

What is the closest peering point that would be used in Chattanooga,
anyhow?

thanks,
