Eliminating Ex Ante Pricing Regulation and Tariffing of Telephone Access Charges
Document Number: 2020-09810
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2020-05-21
Agency: Federal Communications Commission, Agencies and Commissions
In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes to deregulate and detariff the end user interstate access charges currently included on consumers' and small businesses' local telephone bills. The proposal would also prohibit carriers from separately listing these charges on customers' bills and address issues related to the Universal Service Fund's and other federal programs' historic reliance on these charges in certain circumstances. The need to regulate and tariff those charges is declining as consumers and businesses continue to rapidly migrate away from traditional telephone service provided by local exchange carriers to next-generation voice service options. Detariffing and deregulating these charges will give carriers the flexibility to price their services competitively. Eliminating these charges from consumers' telephone bills will make it easier for consumers to understand their telephone bills, compare prices among voice service providers, and better ensure that a voice service provider's advertised price is closer to the total price that appears on its customers' bills.

The Commission also proposes to modernize the terminology in our regulations to use the term ``audio description'' rather than ``video description.'' Finally, it proposes to make a non- substantive edit to the video description rules, to delete outdated references to compliance deadlines that have passed.
