Summary |
Tariff revisions on less than statutory notice to reduce intrastate nontraffic-sensitive terminating access rates, increase originating carrier common line pooled rate, and confirmation by this Commission that the traditional universal service fund charge is part of a state universal program not subject to new rules issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The net revenue reduction is in response to the FCC's new rules governing the reform of intercarrier compensation mechanisms (including intrastate access charges) that were initially released on November 18, 2012, in Order No. FCC 11-161. |
