(a) the associated intraLATA PIC change charge;

(b) the associated interLATA PIC change charge; or

(c) the total of one-half of the associated intraLATA PIC change charge plus one-half of the associated interLATA PIC change charge.
(i) Each one-half charge may be shown separately on the customer bill.
