Section R746-356-1 - Purpose and Authority
Universal Citation: UT Admin Code R 746-356-1
Current through Bulletin 2025-06, March 15, 2025
A. Purpose --
1. These rules establish
procedures and methods by which all Commission certified local exchange carrier
telecommunications corporations (LECs) will provide and maintain equal access,
and customer dialing parity, to intrastate (intraLATA) toll services when
requested by one or more Commission or Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
certified telecommunications corporations or common carriers.
2. The costs of the equal access
implementation and continuing service shall be fairly and reasonably
distributed based on the future toll service market share achieved by the LEC
and all certified telecommunications carriers requesting equal access
service.
3. The provisioning of
interLATA interstate toll services by a subsidiary, or an affiliate, of a LEC
will be considered to be the same as those services being provided by the LEC
itself for implementation of intrastate equal access.
B. Authority --
1. Section
54-8b-2.2(3) requires that the
Commission establish these rules.
2. Title
47 U.S.C.
Section 271(e)(2) requires
implementation of intraLATA equal access for Bell Operating Company interLATA
service offerings.
3. Title
47 U.S.C. Section
251(b)(3), requires all LECs
to provide intraLATA equal access when requested by a commission or FCC
certified telecommunications corporation or common carrier, or when the LEC
commences providing in-region or interstate interLATA toll service to its
customers, with some exceptions as defined in
47 U.S.C. Section
251(f)(2).
