Download as PDF pwalker on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES 50968 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 190 / Friday, October 2, 2009 / Notices all (both rural and non–rural) incumbent local exchange carriers(LECs) must provide the National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA) with the loop cost and loop count data required by 47 CFR 63.611 of the Commission’s rules for each of its study areas and, if applicable, for each wire center (that term is defined in 47 CFR Part 54). Loops are the telephone lines running from the carrier’s switching facilities to the customer. The loop cost and loop count information is to be field annually with NECA by July 31st of each year, and may be updated quarterly pursuant to 47 CFR 63.612. Pursuant to section 36.613, the information filed on July 31st of each year will be used to calculate universal service support for each study area and is filed by NECA with the Commission by October 1 of each year. An incumbent LEC is define as a carrier that meets the definition of ‘‘incumbent local exchange carrier’’ in 47 CFR 51.5 of the Commission’s rules. Section 63.612(a) also requires non– rural carriers to file loop counts (no loop cost data) on a quarterly basis. The Commission requires that non–rural carriers submit quarterly loop counts in order to ensure that universal service fund (USF) support for non–rural carriers is accurately calculated when competitive eligible telecommunications carriers (ETCs) are present in the incumbent LECs’ operating areas. Quarterly loop cost and loop count data filings are voluntary for rural carriers. When a competitive ETC, however, is operating in an incumbent rural carrier’s territory, the incumbent rural carrier is required to submit quarterly loop count data. Quarterly filings of loop counts are necessary because if an incumbent rural carrier does not update its loop count data more often than annually, but its competitor does, the competitor’s more recent data may include loops captured from the incumbent since the incumbent’s last filing. Thus, the incumbent would continue to receive USF support at the same per line support amount that the incumbent LEC receives in the same operating territory. In order to receive such support, the competitive ETC must file loop count data with the USAC on a quarterly basis. The reporting requirements are necessary to implement the congressional mandate for universal service. The requirements are necessary to verify that rural and non–rural LECs are eligible to receive universal service support. Information filed with NECA pursuant to section 36.611 is used to calculate universal service support payments to eligible carriers. Without VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:40 Oct 01, 2009 Jkt 220001 this information, NECA and USAC (Universal Service Administration Company) would not be able to calculate such payments to eligible carriers.
