It is the only permanent record of common carrier activity published by the Government Printing Office and sent to repository libraries. The most recent edition may be purchased by mail from the Superintendent of Documents, P. O. Box 371954, Pittsburgh, PA 15250- 7954, or by calling GPO's Order and Inquiry Desk at (866) 512- 1800. Sources of Information Much of the material contained in this volume is available well before the SOCC is published by the Government Printing Office. Internet The Wireline Competition Bureau has a home page on the World Wide Web. This home page can be accessed directly at www. fcc. gov/ wcb/ through a link from the main FCC home page at www. fcc. gov. The materials available include orders, notices of proposed rulemaking, statistical reports, public notices, news releases, fact sheets, and answers to frequently asked questions (F AQs). The Wireline Competition Bureau Statistical Reports web pages include all of the files contained in the SOCC and a variety of other reports that are used in the preparation of the SOCC. It can be reached directly at www. fcc. gov/ wcb/ stats/. The annual carrier submissions that are used in developing many of the tables in this publication can also be found at www. fcc. gov/ wcb/ armis/. D u p l i c a t i n g Co n t r a c t ors and Reference Info rmation Cen ter Several private firms specialize in locating, duplicating, and distributing FCC documents. The Commission's current duplicating contractor is Best Copy and Printing, Inc. Documents may be purchased by calling Best Copy and Printing, Inc., 1- 800- 378- 3160, or via e- mail at FCC@ bcpiweb. com. Reports and the summaries used in the preparation of the SOCC are also available in the FCC's Reference Information Center, located on the Courtyard Level, 445 12th Street S. W., Washington, D. C. Coverage Loc al Teleph one Companies There are approximately 1,300 companies that have historically provided local telephone service in the United States. These companies, often referred to as incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs), range in size from rural cooperatives serving fewer than 100 customers to large holding companies serving millions of telephone lines. In most cases, only larger companies (those with more than $125 million in annual revenues in 2004) are required to file information with the FCC, and only te lephone companies affiliated with the four largest holding companies are required to file the most extensive info rmation. New telephone service providers, referred to as competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), and providers of wireless telephone service are not required to file detailed statistical data with the Commission. In 2004, as shown in the detailed statistics in Table 2.8, there were 28 reporting large ILECs required to file the ARMIS USOA Report 43- 02. In addition to these large carriers, 28 mid- sized ILECs repor t less detailed data in 3 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers iv the ARMIS Annual Summary Report 43- 01, and statistical tabulations based on this report are shown in Tables 2.9 through 2.17. While these 56 companies account for more than 90% of the local te lephone lines served by ILECs, they do not reflect a complete census of the industry. Long Distance Companies Over 900 firms buy access from local telephone companies in order to provide long distance service, and a limited amount of information on the larger long distance companies is contained in various tables throughout the SOCC. Among long distance carriers, only AT& T and Al ascom, which once were regarded as dominant carriers possessing market power, were ever required to file detailed reports. These data are contained in earlier editions of this publication. The reporting requirement s, however, were eliminated when the FCC determined that AT& T was no longer a dominant carrier. Accounting Standards A new Uniform System of Accounts (USOA) for the telephone industry became effective at the beginning of 1988. The detailed tables in this report are based on that system. Full Class A reporting requirements are imposed only where the aggregate revenues of an ILEC and its affiliates exceed $7.403 billion. In 2004, only BellSouth, Qwest, SBC, and Verizon remain ed subject to full Class A repor ting requirements. The results for the 28 carriers affiliated with these firms appear in Table 2.8. The amount of state- by- state information varies from company to company. Ameritech, now a subsidiary of SBC, has historically maintained a separate operating company in each state served and consequently files information for each one. In contrast, Qwest, formerly U S WEST, has consolidated its operations into a single company servicing 14 states, for which it files aggregated information. Where a company’s revenues from all its affiliated ILECs total less than $7.403 bill ion, each of the affiliated ILECs earning revenues over the reporting threshold is eligible for Class B (streamlined) reporting treatment. Summary tabulations for these mid- sized comp anies are included in Tables 2.9 through 2.17. The USOA applies to telephone operating companies. It is not designed to capture the activities of parent holding companies or subsidiaries. Where activities have been transferred from telephone companies to holding companies or subsidiaries, the revenues from those activities cease to be reported by the operating companies. For this reason, along with several other differences between financial and regulatory accounting systems, the results contained in reports to the FCC may differ markedly from reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Timing of the SOCC Most companies report information for the prior calendar year to stockholders and to the SEC by April 1. At the same time, they provide annual reports on their domestic operations to the FCC. The basic raw data are made available to the public as soon as received. This statistical summary is produced after the data have been checked, inquiries on suspect items sent to the carriers, corrected submissions received, and the industry tables compiled. Unlike data for domestic operations, corrected data for international services are typically not received until at least ten months after the end of the year being reported. Summaries of the international data are usually prepared and released by the end of the year. We have shortened the production cycle in order to reduce the delay in publication and we now complete the production within a six- month timeframe. This has been done by lagging the publication of international data 4 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers v by one year. Thus, this edition of the SOCC contains the international statistics only through 2003 . International data for 2004 will be available via the Internet, from duplicating contractors, and in the FCC’s public reference center, but it will not be published in the SOCC until next year. Other Info rmation Sources The United States Telecom Association represents most local telephone companies. Like many trade associations, it collects information from each of its members. Annually, it prepares, publishes and sells statistical publications such as Phone Facts. The Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Associat ion (CTIA) represents the wireless industry. Since January 1985, it has conducted a semi- a nnual wireless survey, which consists of data on the wireless industry including the number of subscribers, revenues, employees, and average local monthly bill. The Telecommunications Industry Association’s (TIA) members consist of manufacturers and suppliers of the products and services used in telecommunications. TIA publishes annually the Telecommunications Market Review and Forecast, which provides an overview of the telecommunications industry. * * * * * * * * * * * * The 2004/ 2005 volume of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers, was prepared by John Adesalu and Katie Rangos under the supervision and direction of Alan Feldman.

The revenue information for large local exchange telephone companies is based on the annual filings of ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) Reports 43- 02. The Commission also collects revenue information on FCC Form 499- A (Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet) and, in previous years, on FCC Forms 431 (Telecommunications Relay Service Worksheet) and 457 (Universal Service Worksheet). Revenues for carriers that are not subject to the filing requirements under § 43.21( c), or ARMIS Reports, are estimated by the FCC staff based on carriers' filings of the FCC Forms 431, 457, and 499- A. Company Notes 1 ACC Long Distance Corp. and Teleport Communications Group merged in April of 1998, and the combined company, Teleport Communications Group, merged with AT& T Communications, Inc., in July of that year. AT& T Communications acquired Alascom, Inc., August 7, 1995 and began filing a consolidated revenue statement in 1996. 2 On July 21, 2002, WorldCom and substantially all of its U. S. subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief in the U. S. Ban kruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U. S. Bankruptcy Code. On April 20, 2004, WorldCom emerged from bankruptcy and merged with and into MCI whereby the separate existence of WorldCom ceased and MCI became the surviving company. 3 For the years 1994 - 1999, the RBOC ILEC toll service revenues are included in total ILEC toll revenues. 4 Qwest Interprise America, Inc. is a subsidiary for out- of- region DSL (digital subscriber line); and Qwest LD Corp. is a subsidi ary for in- region long distance. 5 In November 2003, WilTel Communications, LLC became a wholly- owned, indirect subsidiary of Leucadia National Corporation. Thus, it no longer files with the SEC (Securities & Exchange Commission) on a stand- alone basis. 6 In October 2004, ITC^ DeltaCom completed its acquisition (begun in July 2003) of BTI Telecom Corp. outstanding common stock. 7 Frontier was acquired by Citizens Communications Company in June of 2001 and Electric Lightwave on June 20, 2002. 8 ILECs' totals are shown separately through 1999 because they primarily carried intraLATA calls due, in part, to the restrictions imposed on the RBOCs by the 1984 Divestiture agreement. By 2000 most local exchange customers could presubscribe to any carrier for intraLATA toll service and some RBOCs began to receive section 271 approval to provide interLATA toll services. 9 Includes wireless toll service revenues reported by wireless carriers, toll service revenues reported by CLECs, and toll service revenues reported by non- RBOC ILECs. 10 Estimated by the FCC staff.

Information System) operating data reports (FCC Report 43- 08) of reporting incumbent local exchange carriers. ARMIS Report 43- 08 definitions and carrier data can be accessed at www. fcc. gov/ wcb/ armis/. See Table 2.6 for data of individual carriers. Certain data pertaining to the carriers are unavailable. Totals by state for some items may be understated because of incomplete data. Detailed values may not match totals because of necessary rounding. Changes to Companies during Year 2004 Qwest no longer includes El Paso County Telephone company data for Colorado and it no longer includes Malheur Home Telephone Company for Idaho and two other Idaho study areas (MSID and PNID Outside Plant Statistics Unless otherwise stated, data include local loop and interoffice facilities. A cable containing only copper, coaxial, or other metallic conductors is classified as metallic, but a cable containing both fiber and copper, coaxial or other metallic conductors is classified as fiber. Kilometers equal total miles multiplied by 1.6093 and then rounded to the nearest whole number. Non- zero entries the ARMIS reports of less than 1 kilometer are reported as 1 kilometer. Equivalent number of poles is the number of solely- owned poles plus the sum of the products of the numbers of jointly- owned poles times their ownership percentages. Kilometers of telephone channel are the number of equivalent analog or digital telephone circuit kilometers that a equipped and on radio systems above 890 MH z Total equipped local loop circuit kilometers are the number of total equivalent voice- grade circuit kilometers in local plant. Access Lines Switched access lines connect end- user customers with their end office for switched services. They are classified as analog or digital depending on the type of service. Switched access lines include 800 and 800- like access lines, resold telephone exchange service lines, employee concession lines, but not official/ company circuits. They do not include the closed end of WATS, FX, and special access lines. Main access lines include analog switched access lines provided over 4kHz or equivalent facilities, that connect to residential, single and multiline business telephones excluding PBX Trunks, Centrex- CO lines, Centrex- CU Trunks, and Hotel/ Motel LD Trunks. Digital switched lines are provided over 64 kbps, 56 kbps, or ISDN B channels or other equivalent communications channels that are circuit- switched and can carry either, voice or data excluding digital access lines connecting to a customer location or PBX. A fully- equipped DS- 1 lin e, for example, corresponds to 24 - 64 kbps equivalents. Other switched access lines and total switched access lines includ e resold telephone exchange service lines. Special access lines connect an end user's premises to an interexchange carrier or other access customer point of presence. Local private lines originate and terminate within the same LATA. Central office switches are assemblies of equipment and software designed to establish connections among lines and between lines and trunks, including access tandems, local, class 5 switching machines and associated remote switching machines. Statistics of Communications Common Carriers 22 Notes for Tables 2.2 through 2.5 28 Notes for Tables 2.2 through 2.5 -- Continued Access Lines - Continued Figures for switched access lines reported in the ARMIS Report 43- 08 for some companies are slightly different from figures for billable access lines reported in the annual summary report (ARMIS Report 43- 01) for a variety of reasons, including different reporting requirements, the interpretation of those requirements by the various companies, and the methods different companies use to calculate the number of lines. The majority of the differences come from the fact tha t derived ISDN channels are included in the count of switched access lines in the ARMIS Report 43- 08, but are not treated as billable access lines in the ARMIS Report 43- 01. Telephone Calls and Minutes Local calls are the number of originating calls completed or unanswered between points both of which are within the local service area of the calling telephone, or total originating calls minus total originating toll calls. The number of completed toll calls include calls directed to a point outside the local service area of the calling telephone. The number of toll calls is based on originating message volumes and includes outward calls, 800 and 800- like service, directory service, dial- it services (e. g., 900 service), and optional calling plans. IntraLATA toll calls are carried by the reporting local operating company within a given Local Access and Transport Area (LATA). InterLATA toll calls are directed to and carried by interexchange carriers. Billed access minutes are based on bills sent to interexchange carriers and include total originating and terminating minutes- of- use, including call set- up time, holding time, and conversation time. 23 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers 29 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers Table 2.6 - Operating Statistics of Reporting Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers as of December 31, 2004 1 2 3 All Regional Mid- Sized Reporting BellReporting Items Incumbent Operating Incumbent Local Companies Local Exchange Exchange Companies Companies Km of Aerial Wire 434,598 359,920 74,678 Aerial Cable: Sheath Km of Metallic Cable 1,944,365 1,661,480 282,885 Sheath Km of Fiber 232,461 200,860 31,601 Underground Cable: Sheath Km of Metallic Cable 614,662 585,532 29,130 Sheath Km of Fiber 320,411 307,693 12,718 Buried Cable: Sheath Km of Metallic Cable 3,427,901 2,860,595 567,306 Sheath Km of Fiber 300,909 253,185 47,724 Intrabuilding Network Cable: Sheath Km of Metallic Cable 83,201 81,385 1,816 Sheath Km of Fiber 5,273 5,027 246 Total Cable: Sheath Km of Metallic Cable 6,070,125 5,188,989 881,136 Sheath Km of Fiber 859,053 766,763 92,290 Km of Fiber in Cable: Fiber Km Equipped (Lit) 16,456,179 15,307,435 1,148,744 Total Fiber Km Deployed (Lit & Dark) 51,332,347 48,222,654 3,109,693 Km of Metallic Wire in Cable 2,753,642,939 2,590,632,201 163,010,738 Equipped Km of Tube in Coaxial Cable 13,791 13,791 0 Equivalent Number of Poles 19,149,700 16,769,094 2,380,606 Conduit System: Trench Km 318,167 295,395 22,772 Duct Km 1,593,154 1,524,929 68,225 Km of Terrestrial Radio Relay System 55,184 52,522 2,662 Km of One- Way Terrestrial Radio Channel 289,167 200,099 89,068 Km of Telephone Channel on Radio: Analog (4kHz or E quiv) 1,043,549 1,043,549 0 Digital (64kbps or Equiv) 177,396,952 172,336,092 5,060,860 Total Equipped Local Loop Circuit Km: Analog (4kHz or Equiv) 753,556,662 731,597,486 21,959,176 (Cable and Microwave) Digital (64kbps or Equiv) 604,917,413 571,273,409 33,644,004 Total Equipped Interoffice Circuit Km: Analog (4kHz or Equiv) 12,173,863 11,347,563 826,300 (Cable and Microwave) Digital (64kbps or Equiv) 6,399,189,062 5,752,246,251 646,942,811 Main Access Lines 116,994,888 106,204,884 10,790,004 PBX & Centrex Trunks 5,661,974 5,031,344 630,630 Centrex Extensions 12,722,509 12,042,050 680,459 Other Switched Access Lines 7,351,045 7,213,623 137,422 Total Switched Access Lines 142,730,416 130,491,901 12,238,515 Central Office Switches Excluding Remotes 6,644 5,805 839 Remote Switches 11,288 8,885 2,403 Total Central Office Switches 17,932 14,690 3,242 Basic Rate ISDN Control Channels 1,050,416 1,022,922 27,494 Primary Rate ISDN Control Channels 269,885 254,284 15,601 Business Access Lines: Single Line 3,157,251 2,616,331 540,920 Multiline 44,552,188 41,764,266 2,787,922 Payphone Lines 948,414 908,717 39,697 Residential Switched Access Lines: Lifeline 6,238,371 5,900,504 337,867 Non- Lifeline/ Primary 76,523,938 68,771,885 7,752,053 Non- Lifeline - Non- Primary 11,310,254 10,530,198 780,056 Total Switched Access Lines 142,730,416 130,491,901 12,238,515 Special Access Lines (Non- Switched): Analog (4kHz or E quiv) 765,898 729,502 36,396 Digital (64kbps or Equiv) 142,851,384 121,081,744 21,769,640 Total Access Lines (Switched and Special) 286,347,698 252,303,147 34,044,551 Local Private Lines 12,999,681 12,525,992 473,689 Local Calls 381,069,716 354,767,872 26,301,844 IntraLATA Toll Calls Completed (Originating) 10,199,173 9,470,480 728,693 InterLATA Toll Calls Completed Interstate 47,627,234 42,353,294 5,273,940 (Originating) Intrastate 24,569,676 22,468,827 2,100,849 Total 72,196,910 64,822,121 7,374,789 InterLATA Billed Access Minutes: Interstate 407,004,711 367,760,481 39,244,230 (Originating and Terminating) Intrastate 194,793,939 180,569,251 14,224,688 Total 601,798,650 548,329,732 53,468,918 24 Telephone Calls and Billed Access Minutes (in Thousands): Outside Plant Statistics: Switched Access Lines in Service: Access Lines in Service by Customer: 30 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers Table 2.6 - Operating Statistics of Reporting Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers as of December 31, 2004 -- Continued 4 BS 5 Q 6 SBC 7 SBC BellSouth QwestIllinois Bell Indiana Bell Telecom- Corporation Telephone Telephone Items munications, Company Company Inc.
