These mechanisms were adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (Commission), based on recommendations from the Universal Service Joint Board. These reports are part of a monitoring program created by the Commission in 1997 to replace a similar program in CC Docket No. 87-339 that resulted in a series of nineteen Monitoring Reports. 3 The current program incorporates most of the information that was collected under the previous program, and also new materials from the reports of the administrator of the universal service support mechanisms, the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC). To enhance our monitoring ability, we have created an open docket, 4 which allows data, materials, comments, and studies to be submitted by any interested party at any time. The monitoring program has proven to be valuable, not only as a report on the effects of the Commission’s regulatory policies, but also as a complete census of all incumbent local exchange carriers. Because smaller carriers generally are exempt from most Commission reporting requirements, the Monitoring Report incorporates data from several sources, including the National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA) and USAC. USAC collects information from all eligible (including competitive) local exchange carriers to administer the universal service support mechanisms. NECA, at the direction of the Commission, collects information in order to administer the access charge pools and also provides information to USAC that is utilized in administering the Universal Service Fund. The Monitoring Report, therefore, contains the only available comprehensive data on all incumbent local exchange carriers, including data on such matters as the number of telephone lines, calling volumes, and certain types of costs. It also includes some information on other carriers. This report presents data for the eleven subject categories selected for monitoring. The first section provides information on the contributions to the universal service support mechanisms and industry revenues, on which those contributions are based. The next four sections provide 1 The last report was released on December 29, 2005. Universal Service Monitoring Report, CC Docket No. 98-202, 2004 (Data Received Through May 2005), prepared by the Federal and State Staff for the Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service in CC Docket No. 96-45. 2 In some sections, data received in June have been included. 3 Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, Report and Order, FCC 97-157, para. 869 (released May 8, 1997). See 47 C.F.R. § 54.702(i). 4 CC Docket No. 98-202. 7 information on the various support mechanisms: low-income support; high-cost support; schools and libraries support; and rural health care support. The remaining six sections provide information on matters that might be affected by the support mechanisms: subscribership and penetration; rates and price indices; network usage and growth; quality of service; infrastructure; and revenues, expenses, and investment. The Monitoring Report is published once a year. The following are highlights of some of the material in this report. Section 1 provides an update on industry revenues and the universal service program requirements and contribution factors. Section 2 includes the latest data on the Lifeline and LinkUp programs. Section 3 includes the most recent projected payments for all of the high-cost support mechanisms, based on the quarterly reports from USAC. It also includes information from the latest filing by NECA for the high-cost loop fund. Section 4 includes updated data on the schools and libraries support mechanism. Section 5 includes updated data on the rural health care support mechanism. Section 6 includes the most recent Census data on subscribership from the Current Population Survey and the American Community Survey. It also includes data on telephone penetration by income by state and a discussion of the impact of Lifeline programs on penetration. Section 7 includes updated Consumer Price Index and Producer Price Index data and other updated rate information. Section 8 includes the latest NECA data on access minutes. Section 9 includes updated data on the quality of service from the Commission's Automated Reporting Management Information System (ARMIS) reports. Section 10 includes updated data on infrastructure from the ARMIS reports. Section 11 includes the latest information on revenues, expenses, and investment from the ARMIS reports. This entire report is available electronically through the Wireline Competition Bureau Statistical Reports 5 Internet site, which can be reached at . It is available in both page image (.pdf) format and in a compressed (.zip) format, which, when unzipped yields word processing and spreadsheet files. In addition, information received well in advance of the next Monitoring Report will be made available on an interim basis in separate staff reports or in raw data files (such as most NECA filings used in the Monitoring Report) on the Wireline Competition Bureau Statistical Reports Internet site. In addition, the ARMIS data are available on the ARMIS Internet site, which can be reached at . For ease of public reference, parties submitting materials for this docket should provide a duplicate copy to the FCC's Reference Information Center, 6 where copies of all materials filed in the docket are available for public reference.

Industry Revenues and Contributions This section provides a general overview of the revenues of the U.S. telecommunications industry, and the contributions to the universal service support mechanisms that are based on these revenues. 1 Most of the data for 2004 are taken from filings of annual Telecommunications Reporting Worksheets (FCC Form 499-A) made with the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) on April 1, 2005. 2 Revenue data collected on these worksheets are used to administer contributions to the universal service fund (USF), Interstate Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS), North American Numbering Plan (NANP), and local number portability (LNP) programs. Filer revenues also are used to calculate FCC Interstate Telecommunications Service Provider (ITSP) regulatory fees. 3 Data presented for 2005 are taken from May 1, 2005, August 1, 2005, November 1, 2005, and February 1, 2006 FCC Form 499-Q quarterly filings. Revenue Information Universal service requirements include several mechanisms that help ensure that all Americans have access to affordable telecommunications service. In section 254(d) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, 4 Congress mandated that "[e]very telecommunications carrier 1 Portions of this section are based on Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Federal Communications Commission, Telecommunications Industry Revenues (March 2006). 2 Telecommunications providers filed worksheets containing calendar year 2005 revenue data on April 1, 2006. The worksheets are filed with the FCC’s Data Collection Agent, which extensively reviews and validates data. Telecommunications providers routinely make revised filings. As a result, the data are not considered reliable enough for publication for several months after the initial filing date. Therefore, the 2006 filings were not available for use in this report and 2005 data were based on the more abbreviated and less reliable FCC Form 499-Q quarterly filings. April 2005 FCC Form 499-A filings containing 2004 revenues were used to compile the 2004 data. Compilation was based on a database prepared by the Data Collection Agent as of October 15, 2005. Therefore, revised or new 2005 FCC Form 499-A filings that were received after October 15, 2005, are not reflected herein. 3 Much of the information filed on FCC Form 499-A is proprietary. Publicly available information on individual carriers is contained in Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Federal Communications Commission, Telecommunications Provider Locator (March 2006). See also . 4 Pub. L. No. 104-104, 110 Stat. 56 codified at 47 U.S.C. §§ 151 et seq. 1 - 2 that provides interstate telecommunications services shall contribute, on an equitable and nondiscriminatory basis, to the specific, predictable, and sufficient mechanisms established by the Commission to preserve and advance universal service." 5 The Commission implemented this mandate in a 1997 Report and Order. 6 The Commission subsequently selected USAC as the administrator of the universal service support mechanisms. Telecommunications providers currently file FCC Form 499-A (Telecommunications Reporting Worksheets, due each April) and FCC Form 499-Q (Telecommunications Reporting Worksheets, due one month after the close of each calendar quarter). Virtually all providers of telecommunications must file FCC Form 499-A each year. 7 On June 21, 2006, the Commission ruled that providers of interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service also must file FCC Form 499-A worksheets. 8 These filers will provide revenue 5 47 U.S.C. § 254(d). 6 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, Report and Order, 12 FCC Rcd 8776 (1997) (subsequent history omitted). 7 There are certain exceptions. Providers that offer telecommunications for a fee exclusively on a non-common carrier basis are not required to file if their total annual contribution to universal service would be less than $10,000. Government entities that purchase telecommunications services in bulk on their own behalf, public safety and local government entities licensed under Subpart B of Part 90 of the Commission’s rules, and entities providing interstate telecommunications exclusively to government or public safety entities are not required to file. In addition, broadcasters, non-profit schools, non- profit libraries, non-profit colleges, non-profit universities and non-profit health care providers are not required to file. Finally, systems integrators that derive less than 5% of their systems integration revenues from the resale of telecommunications and entities that provide services only to themselves or to commonly owned affiliates need not file. However, services provided to exempt entities are subject to contribution requirements and therefore exempt entities may be required to pay USF pass-through charges to underlying services providers. 8 See Universal Service Contribution Methodology; Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, 1998 Biennial Regulatory Review – Streamlined Contributor Reporting Requirements Associated with Administration of Telecommunications Relay Service, North American Numbering Plan, Local Number Portability, and Universal Service Support Mechanisms, Telecommunications Services for Individuals with Hearing and Speech Disabilities, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Administration of the North American Numbering Plan and North American Numbering Plan Cost Recovery Contribution Factor and Fund Size, Number Resource Optimization, Telephone Number Portability, Truth-in-Billing and Billing Format, WC Docket No. 06-122, CC 1 - 3 information in their April 2007 FCC Form 499-A filings. Reporting Worksheets are not filed directly with the FCC but rather with USAC, which serves as the data collection agent. FCC Form 499-A asks each filer to report total, interstate and international revenues in two broad categories: those billed to universal service contributors for resale (carrier's carrier revenues); and those billed to de minimis telecommunications providers and end users (end-user revenues). 9 Filers must provide further breakdowns of local, wireless, and toll services. The form also asks each filer to choose the communications business that best describes its operations: 10 • All Distance Carrier • Competitive Access Provider (CAP) or Competitive Local Exchange Carrier (CLEC) • Cellular, Personal Communications Service (PCS) and Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) Wireless Telephony Service Provider • Coaxial Cable • Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (ILEC) • Interexchange Carrier (IXC) • Local Reseller • Operator Service Provider (OSP) • Other Local Service Provider • Other Mobile Service Provider • Other Toll Service Provider • Paging and Messaging Service Provider • Payphone Provider • Prepaid Calling Card Provider • Private Service Provider • Satellite Service Provider • Shared-Tenant Service Provider • Specialized Mobile Radio - Dispatch Docket Nos. 96-45, 98-171, 90-571, 92-237, 99-200, 95-116, 98-170, Report and Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Report and Order,FCC 06-94 (adopted June 21, 2006) (2006 Contribution Methodology Reform Order). 9 Telecommunications providers are considered de minimis and thus are not required to contribute to universal service (or file Form 499-Q) if their annual contributions to universal service would be less than $10,000. For universal service contribution purposes, underlying service providers treat de minimis firms as end users. 10 The detailed definitions of the filer categories are contained in section III.A of the Instructions to the Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet, FCC Form 499-A available at www.fcc.gov/Forms/Form499-A/499a.pdf. Starting in 2004, carriers were instructed to select up to 5 ranked categories of telecommunications service providers. 1 - 4 • Toll Reseller • Wireless Data Service Provider The Form 499-A instructs filers to report amounts actually billed to customers. This means that filers are required to report revenues net of discounts, but without making adjustments to reflect uncollectible revenues or international settlement payments and receipts. Most filers are able to report revenues in this manner using information contained in their corporate books of account. Some service providers, however, have no business or regulatory requirements to record intrastate or international revenues separately from interstate revenues, or to use the detailed revenue categories contained in the worksheets. Many wireless providers use the interim safe harbor percentages to estimate the interstate portion of their revenues. 11 Form 499-A filings sometimes contain mistakes. Initial examination of the data occasionally reveals carrier types, revenue amounts and/or revenues reported in service categories inconsistent with the known operations of the filer. Some corrections have been made based on supplemental filer information or as a result of audits. Nonetheless, disaggregated data are likely to be less accurate than industry totals. Table 1.1 shows the major components of telecommunications revenues for 1997 through 2005. This table was created by simply aggregating the revenues in the major classifications designated on Form 499-A. Tables 1.2 and 1.3 provide a look at annual industry revenues over time. Generally, Form 499-A revenue data can be tabulated in two distinct ways: by type of service provided and by type of business. Table 1.2 categorizes revenues by type of service and shows, for example, that carriers reported $96.5 billion in wireless service revenues for 2004. This total includes wireless service revenues from some carriers that are not identified as wireless carriers. In contrast, Table 1.3 shows that wireless service providers reported total revenues of $99.5 billion, including some revenues for fixed local and toll services. Revenue data shown for 1994 through 1996 were derived from information filed on TRS worksheets. Revenue data for 1997 and 1998 were derived by combining TRS worksheet and Universal Service worksheet data. Since 1999, revenue data came from Form 499-A, which 11 See Instructions to the Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet, FCC Form 499-A section III.C.3., available at http://www.fcc.gov/Forms/Form499-A/499a-2005.pdf. In 2001 and 2002, the interim safe harbor for wireless carriers was 15%. In December 2002, the Commission raised the wireless interim safe harbor to 28.5%. Wireless carriers began reporting revenues based on the higher interim safe harbor percent on the FCC Form 499-Q due on February 1, 2003, and began contributing on this basis in April 2003. In June 2006 Contribution Methodology Reform Order, the Commission raised the wireless interim safe harbor to 37.1%. Wireless carriers began reporting revenues based on this higher interim safe harbor percent in the FCC Form 499-Q due on August 1, 2006. 1 - 5 replaced both the TRS and Universal Service worksheets. Because of reporting changes, data since 1999 are not entirely consistent with data for prior years. 12 Note also that each year, many filers erroneously report substantial amounts of switched toll revenues as other long distance revenues. The data are examined and some revenues are reclassified based on staff research. Even so, the other long distance category of Table 1.2 probably continues to contain some switched toll revenues, perhaps significant amounts in some years. Table 1.4 illustrates how data from the Form 499-A are used to develop the funding base for the USF. 13 As noted above, providers are considered de minimis for USF purposes if their annual contribution is expected to be less than $10,000. Revenue data for individual filers are not available to the public. However, Tables 1.5 through 1.8 present detailed industry totals by type of revenue and type of filer. Table 1.5 provides a detailed breakout of revenues for each of the Form 499-A revenue categories used to report services provided to other filers for resale. Table 1.6 displays similar detail for each of the revenue categories used to report telecommunications service provided to end users. Table 1.7 combines data from Tables 1.5 and 1.6 with data on non-telecommunications revenues to develop total industry revenues. Table 1.8 provides more aggregated revenue information by type of filers. The revenue categories presented in Tables 1.5 through 1.7 are explained in the Form 499-A filing instructions. Table 1.9 presents data from quarterly filings of Form 499-Q for 2005. Form 499-Q is far less detailed than Form 499-A. Because Form 499-Q filings do not include a business type, filers were categorized based on the primary business type selected on their Form 499-A filings. The 12 For example, special access revenues were included with other access revenues prior to 1997 but have been included with local private line services since then. Similarly, through 1996, filers reported as other local and mobile revenues substantial amounts of customer premises equipment, billing and collection, and other types of revenues that are excluded from contributions to universal service. These revenues are now reported as non- telecommunications revenues. Both tables contain estimates of non-telecommunications revenues that had been reported in prior years. Based on staff estimates, the 1996 telecommunications revenues reported on TRS Worksheets would have been $10.5 billion lower if revenues had been reported using current instructions. Some inconsistencies existed in the 1997 - 1998 period. For example, filers were required in 1997 to include inside wiring maintenance revenues as part of local exchange revenues. In 1998, filers were instructed to report these revenues as non-telecommunications service revenues. The local exchange service revenue data in Table 1.2 would show a greater increase from 1997 to 1998 if the same reporting instructions had been used for each year. 13 See Telecommunications Industry Revenues 2004 for a comparison with the funding bases used for TRS, NANP, and LNP. See also http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/lec.html. 1 - 6 quarterly form asks filers to identify revenues as carrier’s carrier, contribution base end-user, or non- telecommunications and to indicate the interstate and international shares of each category. Unlike Form 499-A, the quarterly form does not require filers to report revenues to the provision of specific types of services. Also, international-to-international revenues are included with non- telecommunications revenues rather than with end-user revenues. 14 The universal service rules prohibit the fund administrator from releasing company-specific information contained in Form 499-A and Form 499-Q worksheets. 15 Revenue data for individual filers are not available to the public. Program Requirements and Contribution Factors Carriers make payments into the USF based on their interstate and international end-user revenues. Carriers report their revenue data to USAC, which tabulates the data, and reports it to the Commission. The Commission reviews program requirements and revenue data, and determines the appropriate contribution factor. The Commission’s Wireline Competition Bureau releases a public notice stating the proposed contribution factor for the upcoming quarter. If, after 14 days, the Commission takes no action regarding the proposed contribution factor, the factor becomes final. The Commission issued an order in February 2002 that changed the methodology used to determine payments that carriers make into the federal USF. 16 It issued another order in December 2002 that made further changes. 17 Before these changes, service providers filed historic revenue 14 Filers record international-to-international revenues for calls that they receive outside the United States and that they carry to points outside the United States where the filer is operating as a U.S. carrier. 15 47 C.F.R. §54.711(b). 16 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service; 1998 Biennial Regulatory Review - Streamlined Contributor Reporting Requirements Associated with Administration of Telecommunications Relay Service, North American Numbering Plan, Local Number Portability, and Universal Service Support Mechanisms; Telecommunications Services for Individuals with Hearing and Speech Disabilities, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990; Administration of the North American Numbering Plan and North American Numbering Plan Cost Recovery Contribution Factor and Fund Size; Number Resource Optimization; Telephone Number Portability; Truth-in-Billing and Billing Format, CC Docket Nos. 96-45, 98-171, 90-571, 92-237, 99-200, 95-116, 98-170, Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Report and Order, 17 FCC Rcd 3752 (2002). 17 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, 1998 Biennial Regulatory Review - Streamlined Contributor Reporting Requirements Associated with Administration of Telecommunications Relay Service, North American Numbering Plan, Local Number 1 - 7 information each quarter, which, after being reduced by 1% to account for uncollectible contributions, was divided into the total program requirements in order to calculate the contribution factor. Some service providers placed surcharges on customer bills to recover the amounts that they expected to make in USF contribution payments. These surcharges are called "pass-through" charges, and often exceeded the actual contribution rates. Service providers asserted several reasons for marking up contribution pass-through charges. The most important reason was because the revenues from pass-through charges also were included in the service provider contribution bases. Filers used the term "circularity" to describe this situation. Service providers also relied upon markups because they had to contribute on revenues even where the customer failed to pay. Some service providers also added markups to recover administrative expenses that they claimed were related to contributions. Finally, some service providers had declining revenues. Those providers had to contribute on a historic amount that was greater than their current period billings. The markups resulted in numerous consumer complaints. The Commission twice changed the universal service contribution methodology to ensure that markups matched contributions. The first change, adopted in February 2002 and implemented in the third quarter of 2002, reduced each carrier’s contribution base by the amount that the carrier paid into USF during the prior quarter. The line item “Circularity Adjustment” in Table 1.10 accounts for this change. The “Circularity Adjustment” represents the industry’s actual contributions during the prior quarter as reported by USAC. This eliminated circularity as a reason for carriers to inflate pass-through charges. After this first change, some service providers continued to impose pass-through charges in excess of the published contribution factor. In December 2002, the Commission adopted additional changes to its contribution methodology, which were fully implemented in the second quarter of 2003. Form 499-Q filers now file information on billed revenues for the previous quarter and both projected billed revenues and projected collected revenues for the upcoming quarter. Projected collected revenues, which are projected billed revenues less an allowance for uncollectible revenues, form the basis for USF contribution assessments. Projected collected revenues are then adjusted to eliminate circularity. Starting with the second quarter of 2003, the "Circularity Adjustment" amounts shown in Table 1.10 (discussed in more detail below) reflect expected USF contributions for the quarter rather than the industry's actual contributions from a prior quarter.

For each program and for each quarter, the table lists projected program demand, administrative costs, interest income, and periodic true-ups. The table also shows the revenue base and contribution factors for each quarter. As explained above, the contribution base is 1% less than reported revenues to reflect the fact that some contribution assessments may prove uncollectible. Table 1.11 shows universal service disbursements on a mechanism-by-mechanism basis for 2005. 18 Chart 1.1 shows the same information graphically. Table 1.12 shows, on a state-by-state basis, the total amount of funding disbursements for each of the universal service mechanisms, estimated contributions towards universal service, and the net estimated dollar flow (disbursements less estimated contributions) for 2005. 19 Technical Appendix Carrier revenue information is not reported on a state-by-state basis. Therefore, it is necessary to estimate revenues per state in order to derive contributions made per state. The nationwide sum of contributions to support universal service is equal to the payments made from USAC to carriers for universal service mechanisms plus administration costs. Contributions on a per-state basis are computed by multiplying nationwide contributions by the ratio of interstate end-user revenues in each state to nationwide interstate end-user revenues. Estimates of interstate end-user revenues for 2004 by state are reported in Table 1.13. Each state’s share of interstate end user revenues is reported in Table 1.12. 20 The remainder of this appendix provides a detailed description on how revenues are allocated to the states. Tables 1.5 and 1.6 present nationwide data on telecommunications revenues derived from information filed on Form 499-A Telecommunications Reporting 18 Figures in Table 1.11 are lower than those in Table 1.10 due to the difference between projected demand and actual disbursements. The figures used in Tables 1.11 and 1.12 are for the calendar year and include disbursements that were committed over several years but paid out in calendar year 2005. In Sections 4 and 5, figures for the Schools and Libraries program and the Rural Health Care program are reported based on fiscal year rather than calendar year. 19 For a discussion of the methodology used to estimate contributions per state, see the Technical Appendix below and Table 1.13. 20 State’s share of interstate end user revenues are reported under the heading “estimated contributions percent of total.” 1 - 9 Worksheets. Nationwide (cumulative) telecommunications revenues from these tables are divided into categories. These categories are ILECs’ local exchange service revenues, CLEC revenues, subscriber line charge (SLC) revenues, access revenues, mobile wireless revenues and toll revenues. 21 Table 1.14 presents telecommunication revenues for each of these categories at the nationwide level. As set forth below, once the revenues are divided into categories, we use data from several sources to estimate each state’s telecommunications revenues. Data from the Statistics of Communication Common Carriers 22 are used to estimate on a state-by-state basis ILECs’ local exchange service revenues, access revenues, and toll revenues. 23 Data from tariff access filings with the FCC are used to estimate SLC revenues. CLEC and mobile wireless revenues are estimated on a state-by-state basis using data from FCC Form 477. Table 1.15 shows intrastate carrier’s carrier, end-user and total telecommunication revenues by category for ILECs’ local exchange service, CLECs, wireless, access, ILEC toll, and non-ILEC toll. 24 Components of interstate carrier’s carrier, end-user and total telecommunications revenues are presented in Table 1.16. These components include ILECs, CLECs, wireless, SLCs, access, and toll. 25 Data from the 2004/2005 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers are adjusted prior 21 The notes in Table 1.14 discuss how revenues from Tables 1.5 and 1.6 are assigned to categories in Table 1.14. 22 Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Statistics of Communications Common Carriers, 2004/2005 edition (November 2005). 23 Revenues for Alaska, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands are not estimated using data from the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers because these jurisdictions have no telephone companies subject to the FCC's Automated Reporting Management Information System (ARMIS) 43-01 and 43- 08 reporting requirements. 24 Estimated intrastate telephone revenues for Alaska, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands are determined by multiplying the nationwide average intrastate telephone revenues per loop by number of loops in the jurisdiction. 25 Estimated interstate telephone revenues for Alaska, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands are determined by multiplying the nationwide average interstate telephone revenues per access minute by number of access minutes in the jurisdiction. 1 - 10 to allocating nationwide revenues to the states. Data compiled in the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers include those ILECs with annual operating revenues over $123 million for 2003 and revenues over $125 million in 2004. The Statistics of Communications Common Carriers revenue data represent approximately 92 percent of the local telephone industry based on USF loops. Here, data from the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers are expanded to include the entire ILEC industry based on USF loops. Column 1 of Table 1.17 shows USF loops at year-end 2004. Column 2 shows the percent of the ILEC industry that is included in the tables in the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers. It is the average for year-end 2003 and 2004 data. 26 The adjustment formula in Column 3 is (100/Column 2). In Table 1.18, ILECs’ state local exchange revenues are allocated based on local exchange service and state miscellaneous revenues from Table 2.11 of the 2004/2005 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers. Local exchange revenues for allocation are the product of reported ILECs’ local exchange service and miscellaneous revenues and the adjustment formula in Table 1.17. Allocation percentages in each state are the ratio of the state’s allocation revenues to nationwide revenues. Local exchange revenues by type are determined by multiplying the allocation factor by the type of revenues (see Table 1.14). In Table 1.19, we allocate interstate and intrastate CLEC revenues on a state-by-state basis by multiplying national revenues (see Table 1.14) by an allocation percentage. For those states with publicly available data on CLEC lines that exceed 100,000, the allocation percentage is determined by dividing the number of CLEC lines as reported in FCC Form 477 by nationwide CLEC lines. 27 It is more difficult to determine the allocation percentage for the other states. For these states, the allocation percentage is the product of the following two percentages: 1) the percentage of nationwide CLEC lines that are in states in which CLEC line totals are not publicly available or have fewer than 100,000 CLEC lines, and 2) the ratio of Regional Bell Operating Company (RBOC) resold lines and unbundled network element (UNE) loops in the state as compared to RBOC resold lines and UNE loops in all states in which CLEC lines are not reported or have fewer than 100,000 CLEC lines reported. 28 In Table 1.20, we allocate interstate and intrastate mobile wireless revenues on a state-by- state basis by multiplying national revenues (see Table 1.14) by an allocation percentage. The allocation percentage is determined by dividing the number of wireless subscribers in a state by 26 See Table 5.7 of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers, 2004/2005 edition, for year-end 2003 data. 27 See for CLEC lines as of June 2004. 28 See for RBOC data on resold lines and UNE loops as of June 2004. 1 - 11 nationwide wireless subscribers using data from FCC Form 477. 29 SLC revenues are allocated by state in Table 1.21. The sum of residential non-Lifeline lines (including both primary and non-primary lines) and single-line business lines are estimated by multiplying residential non-Lifeline lines and single-line business lines from Table 2.17 of the 2004/2004 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers by the adjustment factor from Table 1.17. Column 1 shows primary residential lines and single-line business lines which is the difference between total residential and single-line business lines, and non-primary lines. Non- primary residential lines are from Table 2.4 of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers. Multi-line business lines (Column 3) are estimated for the industry by multiplying the number of lines in Table 2.17 of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers by the adjustment factor in Table 1.17. Primary residential and single-line business lines SLC rates per month, shown in Column 4 are the rates filed in the Tariff Review Plan (TRP) for price-cap carriers from July 2003 filings and from National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA) pool and rate-of-return carriers. 30 Non- primary SLC revenues per line per month for price-cap companies, shown in Column 5, are the rates filed in the TRPs from the July of 2003 filings. Multiline business SLC rates per line per month in each state, shown in Column 6, are estimated based on the rates in the July 2003 TRP filings for price-cap companies and from NECA pool and rate-of-return carriers. 31 Revenues used for allocating SLC revenues by state are determined by the following formula: 12 * [primary residential and single-line business SLC per line per month * (primary residential lines and single-line business lines) + multiline business SLC per line per month * (multiline business lines) + non-primary lines * non-primary SLC per line per month]. Allocation percentage in each state is the ratio of the state’s allocation revenues to nationwide revenues. SLC revenues are determined by multiplying the allocation factor by the type of revenues (see Table 1.14). In Table 1.22, interstate access revenues and private line revenues are allocated on a state- by-state basis based on net access revenues. Gross access revenues for allocation are the product of interstate access revenues from Table 2.11 of the 2004/2005 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers and the adjustment formula presented in Table 1.17. Revenues for allocation are the difference between gross access revenues for allocation and subscriber line charge revenues. 29 See for wireless subscribers as of June 2004. 30 Carrier USF loop counts are used as weights. We assume that the residential SLC for NECA pool and rate-of-return carriers during the relevant time period was $6.50. 31 The rates of NECA pool carriers and rate-of-return carriers are assumed to be $9.20 per line per month for multiline business. 1 - 12 Allocation percentages in each state are the ratio of the state’s allocation revenues to nationwide revenues. Access revenues by type are determined by multiplying the allocation factors by the type of revenues (see Table 1.14). In Table 1.23, intrastate access revenues are allocated between states based on intrastate access revenues from Table 2.11 of the 2004/2005 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers. Intrastate access revenues for allocation are the product of these access revenues and the adjustment formula in Table 1.17. Allocation percentage in each state is the ratio of the state’s allocation revenues to nationwide revenues. Access revenues by type are determined by multiplying the allocation factor by the type of revenues (see Table 1.14). Table 1.24 shows ILEC toll revenues of large ILECs reported in Table 2.11 of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers, and ILEC intrastate toll revenues. 32 ILEC intrastate toll revenues are the product of ILEC reported revenues and the adjustment formula in Table 1.17. Table 1.25 shows how non-LECs’ intrastate toll revenues are allocated between states based on intrastate access minutes and intrastate access revenues. 33 Non-LEC toll is the difference between intrastate toll revenues and LEC toll revenues. 34 Intrastate toll revenues are reported in Table 1.14, and LEC toll revenues are reported in Table 1.24. Column 1 shows access minutes for allocation. Access minutes for allocation are the product of intrastate-interLATA access minutes from Table 2.5 of the 2004/2005 Statistics of Communications Common Carriers and the adjustment formula in Table 1.17. Column 2 shows each state’s percentage of intrastate access minutes. Column 3 shows each state’s percentage of intrastate access revenues. 35 The allocation percentages for non-LECs’ intrastate toll revenues, presented in Column 4, are (75% * Column 2) + (25% * Column 3). Intrastate toll revenues by type presented in Columns 5 and 6 are determined by multiplying the allocation percentage by the type of revenues. In Table 1.26, interstate toll revenues are allocated on a per state basis by interstate access minutes. Interstate access minutes are from Table 8.4. The allocation percentages are each state’s percentage of interstate access minutes. Interstate toll revenues by type presented are determined by multiplying the allocation percentage by the type of revenues. (see Table 1.14). 32 ILECs’ toll revenues are assumed to be intrastate revenues. 33 Intrastate access revenues are a proxy for intrastate toll rates. 34 We assume that all LEC toll revenues are end-user revenues. 35 Intrastate access revenues are reported in Table 1.23. Non-LEC toll is the difference between intrastate toll revenues and LEC toll. LEC toll is assumed to be end-user toll. Intrastate toll revenues are reported in Table 1.14 and LEC toll in Table 1.24.

Data include revenues for de minimis filers as well as for other carriers that are exempt from universal service contribution requirements. Carrier's carrier revenues are reported on the FCC Form 499-A as sales to other universal service contributors for resale. This includes, for example, access services that local exchange carriers provide to toll carriers. Sales to de minimis resellers, end-user customers, governments, non-profits, and any other non-contributors are treated as end-user revenues. Filers contribute to the universal service funding mechanisms based on their end-user revenues. Payphone revenues are included with local service revenues in this table. Revenues from calls that both originate and terminate in foreign points are reported as end-user revenues, and are included in this table through 2004, but are not included in the universal service contribution base. Preliminary 2005 data are based on FCC Form 499-Q quarterly filings through November 2005. Companies that do not contribute to universal service are not required to make these filings. The quarterly filings include preliminary data for the just closed quarter and projections for the coming quarter, and therefore are not as accurate as the subsequent annual filings. Also, FCC Form 499-Q filers do not separate revenue by type of service. Therefore, revenue totals by service type for 2005 are based on type of filer rather than on data filed by service. 1 - 13 Table 1.2 Telecommunications Industry Revenues by Service (Dollar Amounts Shown in Millions) Universal Service FCC Form 499-A Data & TRS Data 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 Local Exchange $42,245 $45,194 $48,717 $53,771 $59,245 $64,940 $69,947 $72,346 $71,320 $70,606 $68,238 Pay Telephone 1/ 2,182 2,536 2,218 1,932 1,585 1,192 1,063 1,002 Local Private Line 2/ 1,138 1,226 1,616 8,282 10,403 12,914 16,864 21,966 23,070 22,415 23,840 Other Local 3/ 1,407 3,233 2,674 2,847 2,179 2,501 3,249 3,391 3,418 3,242 2,944 Subscriber Line Charges 2/ 7,310 7,597 7,829 8,327 11,052 10,826 11,563 12,127 12,758 12,136 11,715 Access 2/ 25,449 26,314 27,812 21,423 18,449 18,105 17,017 15,096 13,955 12,972 12,352 103 260 575 1,301 1,410 1,783 1,862 595 595 Total Local Service 77,548 83,564 88,647 97,426 104,563 111,764 121,147 127,812 127,123 124,216 121,953 Wireless Service 12,863 16,883 23,444 32,760 36,240 48,117 61,505 74,006 80,678 88,023 96,450 345 379 495 681 842 1,696 2,118 189 189 Total Wireless Service 12,863 16,883 23,444 32,950 36,775 48,495 62,000 74,687 81,521 89,718 98,568 Operator 1/ 10,539 11,170 10,975 12,002 12,205 10,049 11,406 10,389 7,902 6,567 6,542 Non-Operator Switched Toll 61,468 65,217 73,751 72,059 74,168 78,389 75,183 65,325 54,475 50,178 46,387 Long Distance Private Line 9,043 9,719 10,665 10,504 11,952 13,169 16,189 16,402 15,108 15,316 13,906 Other Long Distance 3,428 3,523 4,299 4,695 3,386 3,656 3,372 3,259 2,445 2,222 1,801 1,810 2,983 3,467 3,927 3,767 2,905 2,577 1,532 1,532 Total Toll Service 84,478 89,629 99,691 100,793 105,055 108,246 109,615 99,301 83,697 77,188 71,214 Total Telecommunications 3/ 174,890 190,076 211,782 231,168 246,392 268,505 292,762 301,799 292,341 291,122 291,735 Non-Telecommunications 3/ 8,324 9,071 10,474 25,633 27,944 33,144 42,261 48,036 60,406 65,186 71,493 Total Reported Revenues 183,214 199,147 222,256 256,801 272,019 301,648 335,023 349,835 352,747 356,308 363,227 Service Reported as: Intrastate 3/ 102,603 112,923 127,849 133,654 142,108 157,212 173,018 183,195 180,585 175,714 179,129 Interstate and International 80,611 86,224 94,407 97,514 104,284 111,293 119,745 118,605 111,756 115,409 112,605 Total Telecommunications 3/ $183,214 $199,147 $222,256 $231,168 $246,392 $268,505 $292,762 $301,799 $292,341 $291,123 $291,734 TRS Worksheet Data See notes on next page. Universal Service Surcharges on Local Service Bills 4/ Additional Revenues from TRS Worksheets Universal Service Surcharges on Wireless Service Bills 4/ Additional Revenues from TRS Worksheets Universal Service Surcharges on Toll Service Bills 4/ Additional Revenues from TRS Worksheets 1 - 14 TRS filers generally reported pay telephone revenues as local service revenues, access revenues or operator toll revenues. The Universal Service and FCC Form 499-A worksheets contain a separate category for payphone coin revenues. Starting in 1997, payphone revenues include payphone compensation received from toll carriers. TRS Worksheet filers generally reported special access revenues as access revenues. Reporting changes implemented with the Universal Service Worksheet explain the increase in local private line revenues and the fall in access revenues shown for 1997. TRS Worksheet filers included subscriber line charges with other access charges. Through 1996, these revenues have been disaggregated by assuming that the end- user access revenues in Table 4.2 of Statistics of Communications Common Carriers represents 93% of industry total subscriber line charge revenues. Universal Service Worksheet filers report subscriber line charges in a separate category. The increase from 1997 to 1998 represents PICC charges levied by ILECs as well as $1.2 billion of PICC pass-through charges levied by toll carriers. Significant amounts of enhanced services, billing and collection, CPE and other non-telecommunications revenues were reported in the TRS mobile and other local service categories through 1996. Universal Service Worksheet filers report these revenues in the non- telecommunications category. For prior years, the amounts of non-telecommunications revenues reported as mobile and other local revenues were estimated as 70% of the amounts that Tier 1 ILECs reported in ARMIS as miscellaneous and nonregulated revenues (then reported as account 5200 and account 5280, respectively) and 10% of amounts reported as mobile service revenue. These amounts have been removed from Other Local and moved to the Non-Telecommunications category. Note: Detail may not add to totals due to rounding. Some data for prior years have been revised. 1/ Notes for Table 1.2 2/ 3/ Charges on end-user bills identified as recovering state or federal universal service contributions are reported separately from local, wireless and toll revenues. Reported amounts are apportioned between local, wireless and toll service based on the proportions of local, wireless and toll intrastate and interstate revenues by type of carrier.

Other adjustments include some amounts withheld to preserve confidentiality and revisions made after the initial publication of the data. Universal Service Other Adjustments 3/ Filers are asked to select for themselves a service provider category that best describes their operations. The choices have changed over the years. For example, most satellite service providers identified themselves as other toll carriers in their 1997 FCC Form 431 TRS worksheets because there was no separate category for satellite service providers. For 2003 and 2004, some filers identified themselves as all distance carriers. These filers have been reclassified to be consistent with prior classifications. Significant amounts of enhanced services, billing and collection, CPE and other non-telecommunications revenues were reported in the TRS mobile and other local service categories through 1996. Universal Service Worksheet filers report these revenues in the non- telecommunications category. For prior years, the amounts of non-telecommunications revenues reported as mobile and other local revenues were estimated as 70% of the amounts that Tier 1 ILECs reported in ARMIS as miscellaneous and nonregulated revenues (then reported as account 5200 and account 5280, respectively) and 10% of amounts reported as mobile service revenue. These amounts have been removed from Other Local and moved to the Non-Telecommunications category. 1 - 16 2004 Revenues subject to universal service contribution Interstate and international end-user revenues $80,057 less revenues for international - to - international services 644 less international revenues of international-only filers and international revenues that were excluded because of 3,118 the 12% rule 2/ less interstate and other international revenues for 2,606 filers who are ide minimis or otherwise exempt 66 from universal service support requirements less uncollectible contribution base revenues 1,574 equals $74,654 Revenues subject to TRS contribution Interstate and international end-user revenues $80,057 less interstate and international revenues for 114 filers who identify themselves as private service providers or as shared tenent service providers and who therefore are exempt from telecommunications relay service (TRS) contribution requirements if they provide no carrier services 438 less interstate and international revenues for services provided for resale but reported as end user because it was provided to carriers that do not contribute to universal service support mechanisms 175 equals $79,443 Revenues subject to NANPA and LNP contribution Total telecommunications service end-user revenues (including intrastate, interstate and international) $233,322 less telecommunications revenues for 756 filers who identify themselves as private service providers, shared tenent service providers or payphone service providers and who therefore are exempt from service (TRS) contribution requirements if they provide no carrier services 1,099 less telecommunications revenues for services provided for resale but reported as end user because it was provided to carriers that do not contribute to universal service support mechanisms 398 equals $231,824 1/ 2/ Source: Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Telecommunications Industry Revenues (March 2006). Exempt amounts were based on revenues and the filer type information contained in the FCC Form 499-A filings. The fund administrators may use carrier type, revenue type, line 603 exemption certifications and additional information requested from filers to determine which filers must contribute. The universal service fund administrator bills delinquent filers based on estimated revenues and may, in some instances, include estimated revenue amounts in contribution base amounts. Note also that universal service contribution factors are set quarterly based on FCC Form 499-Q filings. FCC Form 499-A data are used for true-up and auditing purposes. Also note that local number portability contribution amounts are determined by region of the country rather than on a nationwide basis. As a result of these factors, actual contribution bases have been based on slightly different amounts than those shown. Table 1.4 Contribution Base Revenues By Program 1 /: 2004 (Dollar Amounts Shown in Millions) International revenues are excluded from the contribution base if the total amount of interstate revenues for the filing entity consolidated with all affiliates is less than 12% of the total of interstate and international revenues for the filing entity consolidated with all affiliates. See 47 C.F.R. § 54.706(c). The threshold was increased from 8% to 12% in 2002. See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, et al., CC Docket Nos. 96-45, 98-171, 90-571, 92-237, 99-200, 95-166, 98-170, Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and Report and Order, 17 FCC Rcd 3752, 3806, para. 125 (2002). In addition, filers that provide only international services are exempt regardless of services offered by affiliates. This table shows how contribution bases differ for different programs and provides relative magnitudes, but does not provide the actual amounts used for determining contribution amounts. Amounts shown represent the amounts contained in the FCC Form 499-A database as of October 20, 2005. The universal service administrator continues to receive additional and corrected filings. 1 - 17 Table 1.5 Revenues from Telecommunications Service Provided for Resale 1/: 2004 (Dollar Amounts Shown in Millions) Data from FCC Form 499-A Regional Bell Operating Company Other Incumbent Local Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers Exchange Carriers Line Intrastate Interstate International Total Intrastate Interstate International Total Fixed local service 303 Monthly service, local calling, connection charges, vertical features, and other local exchange service including subscriber line and PICC charges to IXCs 0 Provided as unbundled network elements (UNEs) $4,217 $606 $4,822 $127 $6 * $134 0 Provided under other arrangements 567 129 696 111 87 * 198 Total Line 303 4,784 735 5,518 238 93 * 332 304 Per-minute charges for originating or terminating calls 0 Provided under state or federal access tariff 3,484 2,445 5,929 2,528 1,049 2 3,580 0 Provided as unbundled network elements or other contract arrangement 583 408 991 78 20 * 98 Total Line 304 4,067 2,853 6,920 2,606 1,069 2 3,677 305 Local private line & special access 681 9,314 9,995 281 1,179 * 1,461 306 Payphone compensation from toll carriers 81 63 38 182 1 1 1 3 307 Other local telecommunications service revenues 1,478 379 1,858 31 3 34 308 Universal service support revenues received from 936 920 1,855 614 1,758 * 2,372 Federal or state sources Total fixed local service provided for resale 12,026 14,264 38 26,328 3,772 4,104 3 7,879 Mobile service (including wireless telephony, paging & messaging, and other mobile services) 309 Monthly, activation, and message charges except toll 58 58 11 2 14 Total mobile service provided for resale 58 58 11 2 14 Toll service 310 Operator and toll calls with alternative billing 13 * 13 1 * * 1 arrangements (credit card, collect, international call-back, etc.) 311 Ordinary long distance (direct dialed MTS, customer 220 * 221 6 2 * 7 toll-free 800/888 etc. service, "10-10 calls", associated monthly account maintenance, PICC pass-through, and other switched services not reported above) 312 Long distance private line services 17 2 19 6 5 11 313 Satellite services 314 All other long distance services * 1 1 2 2 * 4 Total toll service provided for resale 250 3 253 15 8 * 23 Total service provided for resale (carrier's carrier) $12,335 $14,267 $38 $26,640 $3,798 $4,114 $3 $7,915 Note: Amounts may not add to totals due to rounding. * Denotes values greater than $0 but less than $500,000. 1/ Includes a proportionate share of amounts reported on Line 403 as surcharges or other amounts on bills identified as recovering state or federal universal service contributions.

Carriers report non-telecommunications service revenues on Line 418. This category includes enhanced services, inside wiring maintenance, billing and collection, customer premises equipment, published directory, dark fiber, Internet, foreign carrier and other non-U.S. telecommunications service revenues. Revenues are classified by the primary carrier type of each reporting entity. For example, revenues reported by an RBOC affiliate that identifies itself as an IXC are included in the table as IXC revenues. Many LECs provided both local and long distance services as part of package plans. Most of the revenues for the toll portion of these bundles were reported as toll revenues on FCC Form 499-A filings of LEC toll affiliates.

Revenues from services provided to firms that are de minimis under or exempt from federal universal service support mechanisms are reported as end-user service and are subject to contribution requirements. Universal service contribution base revenues consist of all interstate and international end-user telecommunications revenues except for international-to-international revenues reported on Line 412. The totals include revenues from filers who are de minimis or otherwise exempt from contributing. This table also includes international revenues that were exempt from contribution because of the 12 percent rule. See Table 1.4 for details on exempt amounts.

See also: Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Telecommunications Industry Revenues (March 2006) available at http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/stats. Note: Amounts may not add to totals due to rounding. Each quarter, telecommunications providers that are required to contribute to universal service support mechanisms must to file an FCC Form 499-Q. The FCC Form 499-Q collects total, interstate and international billed revenues for the most recently completed calendar quarter (historic revenues) and also collects projected interstate and international -- but not total -- revenues for the upcomming calendar quarter (projected revenues.) Some telecommunications providers file the form even though they are not required to contribute. USAC estimates revenues for most non-filers. Filers contribute based on the interstate and international telecommunications revenues that they collect from end-users. On the FCC Form 499-Q, filers project the amount of contribution base they expect to bill in the upcomming quarter and then project the amount of contribution base revenues that they expect to collect. The difference between projected billed revenues and projected collected revenues is amount of revenue that the filer expects to be uncollectible (the implied uncollectible rate). Filers contribute in a quarter based on the end user revenues that they project collecting in that quarter. Filers report actual billings and uncollectibles in their April 1 FCC Form 499-A filings. This information is used to true-up contributions, and provides more accurate information on billings and collections for the year. FCC Form 499-A data for 2005 is not yet available for publication. The FCC Form 499-Q collects historic revenues divided into three categories: telecommunications service provided for resale (carrier's carrier); telecommunications service provided to end-users (end user); and other revenues. Telecommunications providers that contribute directly to federal universal service support mechanisms are referred to as "contributors". Telecommunications provided for resale refers to contributors provided to contributors for resale as. Underlying carriers do not contribute based on these revenues. Revenues from services provided to firms that are de minimis or otherwise exempt from federal universal service support mechanisms are reported as end-user service. The other revenue filing category consists of international-to-international revenues and revenues from goods and services that are not classified as U.S. telecommunications. International-to-international service refers to calls that originate in a foreign point, traverse the United States, and terminate in a foreign point. These revenues, which are exempt from universal service contribution, are reported in a separate end-user telecommunications revenue category in the FCC Fo Sources: The amounts actually used to calculate contribution factors in 2005 are shown below. These amounts total less than the total projected collected revenues shown in the table. One reason is that amounts in the table reflect all amounts shown in the FCC Form 499-Q data base, including estimated amounts for non-filers and amounts reported by filers that are de minimis or do not contribute because they provide only international services. In addition, filers are not required to contribute on international revenues if their interstate end-user revenues represent less than 12% of their combined interstate and international end-user revenues -- a test referred to as the "12%" rule. In addition, the totals shown above include estimated amounts for some carriers. Finally, some difference may be explained by late filings and corrections made to the data base after the Commission calculated contribution factors.

Table 1.10 1 The fourth quarter administrative expenses are significantly lower (and in some cases negative) than administrative expenses in other quarters because the costs for the Universal Service Fund (USF) oversight audit program to be conducted in coordination with the FCC Office of Inspector General are lower than was anticipated. Consequently, the 4Q2005 USAC budget reflects a significant reduction in administrative expenses.

Low-Income Support In 1984, the Commission established a Lifeline program designed to promote universal service by providing low-income individuals with discounts on the monthly cost of telephone service. 1 The Commission expanded that program in 1985. 2 In 1987, the Commission adopted Link Up America (Link Up), designed to help low-income households pay the initial costs of commencing service. 3 After passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (1996 Act), 4 the Commission adopted expanded rules. 5 In June 2000, the Commission further expanded the Lifeline and Link Up programs to address the particularly dire needs of those living on tribal lands. 6 In April 2004, the Commission released an Order expanding the federal default eligibility criteria to include an income-based criterion and additional means-tested programs. 7 The Order adopted federal certification and verification procedures that require states, under certain circumstances, to establish procedures to minimize potential abuse in the program. To target low- income consumers more effectively, the Commission adopted outreach guidelines and issued a voluntary 1 MTS and WATS Market Structure, and Amendment of Part 67 of the Commission's Rules and Establishment of a Joint Board, Recommended Decision, CC Docket Nos. 78-72 and 80-286, 49 Fed.

The Order also contained a Further Notice which proposed adding a broader income-based standard than the one adopted in the Order to further increase penetration rates. In March 2005, nationwide telephone penetration among low-income households 8 was 86.4 percent. The nationwide telephone penetration rate for all households at the same time was 92.5 percent. Since 1985, when the Federal Communications Commission first established Lifeline to help low-income households afford the monthly cost of telephone service, penetration rates among the lowest income households have grown from 80% to 86.4%. States that have taken full or nearly full advantage of federal universal service support for low-income consumers by instituting a state-based supplemental Lifeline program saw an average growth in telephone penetration for low-income households of 1.1% from March 1997 to March 2005. 9 In contrast, states that provided little or no Lifeline support beyond the basic federal support saw an average decline in telephone penetration rates for low-income households between March 1997 and March 2005 of 2.4%. 10 In 2005, over 7.1 million subscribers paid reduced local rates under the Lifeline program. The Link Up America program, which supports affordable connections to the network, has connected over 19.6 million telephone beneficiaries since 1987. The Commission’s rules are designed to satisfy the 1996 Act's mandates that rates be "affordable" and access should be provided to "low-income consumers" in all regions of the nation. The rules require low-income support to be competitively and technologically neutral through equitable and nondiscriminatory contributions from all providers of interstate telecommunications services, and by allowing all eligible telecommunications carriers, including wireless carriers, to receive support for offering Lifeline and Link Up service. 11 Eligibility for Lifeline and Link Up In states that provide state Lifeline support, Lifeline and Link Up are available to all subscribers who meet state eligibility requirements. Although states have some latitude in selecting means tests, state commissions must establish narrowly targeted qualification criteria that are based solely on income or factors directly related to income for its low-income residents to be eligible for Lifeline and Link Up. In 8 Low income households, as defined in section 6 of this report, are households with incomes below $10,000 in 1984 dollars. This is equivalent to $18,252 in 2004 dollars. 9 Under the federal low-income program, eligible consumers in states that establish their own supplemental Lifeline programs received additional federal discounts. Under Tier III support, one-half of the state low-income discount is matched up to $1.75 in additional federal low-income discounts. 47 C.F.R. § 54.403(a)(3). 10 Industry Analysis and Technology Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, Federal Communications Commission, Telephone Penetration by Income by State (May 12, 2006). 11 1997 Universal Service Order, 12 FCC Rcd 8776, 8968-73. See 47 U.S.C. § 254(d), (e). 2 - 3 addition, states with eligible residents of tribal lands must ensure that their qualification criteria are reasonably designed to apply to residents of tribal lands, if applicable. 12 To receive Lifeline and Link Up in a state that does not mandate state Lifeline support, consumers must certify that their household income is at or below 135% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, or that they participate in one of the following seven federal programs: Medicaid, Food Stamps, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Federal Public Housing Assistance (Section 8), the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), the National School Lunch Program’s free lunch program, or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). 13 In such states, carriers must obtain signed statements from the consumer certifying that he or she receives benefits from one of these programs, or that the consumer’s household meets the income requirement, identifying the particular program and agreeing to notify the carrier if he or she ceases to participate in the program or programs or if the consumer’s income exceeds the income requirement. 14 Subscribers living on tribal lands qualify to receive federal Lifeline support if: (1) they qualify under state criteria in a state that provides Lifeline support; (2) they certify that their household income is at or below 135% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines; (3) they certify that they receive benefits from one of the seven federal programs listed above; or (4) they certify that they participate in one of the following additional federal assistance programs: Bureau of Indian Affairs General Assistance (GA), Tribally- administered Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (Tribal TANF), or Head Start (meeting the income-qualifying standard). 15 Lifeline Support Under the Commission’s rules, there are four tiers of federal Lifeline support that are available monthly. All eligible subscribers receive Tier 1 support, which provides a discount equal to the carrier’s subscriber line charge. 16 Tier 2 support provides an additional $1.75 per month in federal support, if all relevant state regulatory authorities approve such a reduction. 17 (All fifty states have approved.) Tier 3 of federal support is based on the amount of additional state support mandated by the relevant state or otherwise provided by carriers. Federal support is available to match one half of the non- federal support provided, up to a maximum of $1.75 in federal support, assuming that the carrier has all 12 47 C.F.R. § 54.409(a). 13 47 C.F.R. § 54.409(b). Certain criteria will not become effective until notice is published in the Federal Register. 14 47 C.F.R. § 54.409(d). 15 47 C.F.R. § 54.409(a)-(d). 16 47 C.F.R. § 54.403(a)(1). 17 47 C.F.R. § 54.403(a)(2). 2 - 4 necessary approvals to pass on the full amount of this total support in discounts to subscribers. 18 Only eligible residents in states that have established their own Lifeline/Link Up programs receive Tier 3 support. Eligible subscribers living on tribal lands also qualify to receive Tier 4 support if they meet the eligibility standards described above. Tier 4 support provides up to an additional $25 per month towards reducing basic local service rates. Eligible subscribers living on tribal lands that receive Tier 4 support must pay at least $1 a month for local phone service, after the discount. The Commission’s Link Up program provides qualified low-income individuals with a federally- financed 50% discount (up to a maximum $30 discount) on initial connection charges. 19 In addition, these subscribers can choose to schedule deferred payments of up to $200 over a one-year period, with the customary interest charges paid by federal support. 20 Eligible residents of tribal lands can receive additional Link Up support to fully cover any charges between $60 and $130, representing up to a maximum of $100 in discounts on initial connection charges of $130 or more. 21 Services Basic local service must include, at a minimum: single-party service, voice grade access to the public switched telephone network, Dual Tone Multifrequency signaling or its functional digital equivalent, access to emergency services, access to operator services, access to interexchange service, access to directory assistance, and toll limitation. The federal program compensates eligible telecommunications carriers for toll-limitation based on the carrier's incremental cost of providing toll- limitation services. 22 Advertising Carriers offering Lifeline and Link Up are required to publicize the availability of those programs using media of general distribution “in a manner reasonably designed to reach those most likely to qualify for support.” 23 18 47 C.F.R. § 54.403(a)(3). 19 47 C.F.R. § 54.411(a)(1). 20 47 C.F.R. § 54.411(a)(2). 21 47 C.F.R. § 54.411(a)(3). 22 47 C.F.R. § 54.403(c). 23 47 C.F.R. §§ 54.405(b), 54.411(d). See also Twelfth Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd at 12250, 2 - 5 Support Mechanism The federal portion of the program is funded by the federal universal service support mechanisms, which include contributions from providers of interstate and international telecommunications, including payphone aggregators and private network operators that offer service to others for a fee on a non- common-carrier basis. These carriers and service providers may pass on contribution expenses to their customers. The FCC monitors subscriber participation and telephone usage to determine program benefits and costs. 24 Historical tables for subscribership and carrier payments by state can be downloaded from the Monitoring Report’s Low-Income Support section of the Wireline Competition Bureau Statistical Reports website, www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/stats.html.

Lifeline Link Up Lifeline and Link Up Support Payments (Dollar Amounts in Millions) 1 Effective in 1998, the federal Lifeline support mechanism was expanded so that a basic level of assistance would be provided in all states. Additional federal support is also provided wherever a state chooses to provide matching assistance. Prior to the expansion, states were required to match all federal support with their own state support, and if the state provided no support, then no federal support was available in that state. The basic level of federal support was also increased in 1998.

High-Cost Support The high-cost support mechanisms enable areas with very high costs to recover some of these costs from the federal universal service fund, leaving a smaller remainder of the costs to be recovered through end-user rates or state universal service support mechanisms. In this manner, the high-cost support mechanisms are intended to hold down rates and thereby further one of the most important goals of federal and state regulation -- the preservation and advancement of universal telephone service. This section of the report outlines the high-cost support mechanisms and provides data for these mechanisms. The high-cost support mechanisms include embedded high-cost loop support (HCLS), 1 safety net additive support, safety valve support, forward-looking non-rural high-cost model support (HCMS), interstate common line support (ICLS) 2 for rate-of-return carriers, interstate access support (IAS) for price-cap carriers, and local switching support (LSS). Table 3.1 summarizes the annual amounts for the high-cost support mechanisms for 1986 through 2006. 3 It is based on information provided by the National Exchange Carrier Association (NECA) through 1997 and the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) since 1998. Support amounts for 2006 are projected, based on USAC’s third quarter filing. 4 Support amounts are subject to adjustment if data are corrected in future periods. Competitive carriers are eligible to receive support from the universal service support mechanisms provided that they provide service using their own facilities, either partially or completely. Thus, pure resellers are not eligible. To be eligible to receive support, a carrier must be designated as an eligible telecommunications carrier (ETC) by the state regulatory commission of the state in which it operates, or by the FCC where the state commission lacks 1 This was formerly referred to as the Universal Service Fund, and still bears that name in the Commission rules. It is now referred to as high-cost loop support to avoid confusion with the new, more comprehensive universal service support mechanisms that the Commission developed to implement the 1996 Act. See 47 C.F.R. § 36.601. See also 47 C.F.R. Part 54. 2 Effective July 1, 2004, long term support (LTS) was merged into ICLS. 3 The 2006 numbers are based on the assumption that fourth quarter projections will be the same as those for the third quarter. The numbers for prior years reflect actual payments. Except for ICLS and LSS, for which final true-ups are available through 2004, the actual support amounts for a given year contain adjustments for prior years. USAC now makes these amounts available on their website on a monthly basis, beginning with 2003. Actual support amounts for earlier years were provided to us by special request. 4 Universal Service Administrative Company, Federal Universal Service Support Mechanism Fund Size Projections (USAC Filing) for the Third Quarter 2006 (May 2, 2006). 3 - 2 jurisdiction. 5 A competitive carrier that is designated as an ETC will receive high-cost support that is determined by the number of lines it serves, the support per line received by the incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) against which it is competing, and the degree to which it uses its own facilities to provide its services. 6 Table 3.2 compares the annual amounts of support received by ILECs and by competitive ETCs (CETCs) for each support mechanism since the first CETC started receiving support in 1999. 7 Historically, HCLS was provided to all ILECs based on their embedded costs. Such support provides assistance for non-traffic sensitive (NTS) local loop costs -- a term that refers to the costs of outside telephone wires, poles, and other facilities that link each telephone customer's premises to the public switched telephone network. NTS costs are allocated between the state and interstate jurisdictions because all local loops can be used for making and receiving both intrastate and interstate telephone calls. Historically, the interstate allocation was made using the Subscriber Plant Factor (SPF). 8 This factor is now 25% for all companies. Today, only rural carriers 9 receive HCLS. Non-rural carriers receive HCMS instead of HCLS. If an ILEC is deemed a rural carrier, it continues to receive high-cost support based on embedded costs. The expense adjustment allows those study areas 10 with an average unseparated cost per loop that exceeds 115% of the national average to allocate an additional portion of their NTS costs to the interstate jurisdiction and to have those costs recovered by HCLS. 11 Table 3.3 shows the percentages of additional NTS costs recovered by HCLS. 12 HCLS 5 47 C.F.R. § 54.201. 6 47 C.F.R. § 54.307. 7 The data for 2006 are projections. USAC’s quarterly filings include projections of support for competitive carriers that have applied for, but not yet received, ETC status. These support amounts have been removed from the 2006 data reported here if the carrier failed to attain ETC status by the time of the filing for the Third Quarter 2006. 8 The Subscriber Plant Factor is defined in section 36.154(e) of the Commission's rules. 47 C.F.R. § 36.154(e). It was frozen in 1981 and then transitioned to 25% between 1985 and 1993, subject to the limitations in section 36.154(f) of the Commission's rules. 47 C.F.R. § 36.154(f). 9 See 47 C.F.R. § 51.5 for the definition of a rural carrier. Generally, they either have fewer than 100,000 lines or serve predominantly rural areas. 10 A study area is usually an operating company's operations in one state. Holding companies may own multiple operating companies and thus have multiple study areas in a state. Study area boundaries were frozen as of November 15, 1984. Any subsequent change requires a Commission waiver of this freeze. 11 In January 1988, high-cost assistance was retargeted to increase benefits to small and 3 - 3 was implemented during a period in which the basic interstate allocation of loop costs was shifted from a level based on the historical SPF to the present flat allocation factor of 25%. Both of these changes were phased in between 1985 and 1993, during which time the HCLS was increased by one-eighth of the formula amount each year. In December 1993, the Commission, at the recommendation of the Joint Board in CC Docket 80-286, imposed a cap on HCLS payments. 13 The cap was indexed to the rate of growth in the national total of working exchange loops. It is implemented by adjusting the national average cost per loop used to calculate each study area's high-cost assistance (using the current formula from Table 3.3) from the average value to whatever base value is required to achieve the cap. For example, in 2003, the cap was achieved by adjusting the base value 2001 cost per loop from the national average of $240.00 to $267.15. In addition, when exchanges are sold or transferred to another company, the new owner is limited to the same support for those exchanges that they had under the old owner. 14 The Commission modified the high-cost support mechanism to provide additional support to rural carriers on May 23, 2001. 15 Implementation of the modified support mechanism medium sized LECs. The old and new high-cost formulas are compared in Table 3.1 of the Monitoring Reports in CC Docket No. 87-339. The last report in that docket was released May 30, 1997. 12 For example, suppose the national average cost per loop is $240 and a company with 10,000 loops has a cost per loop of $420, or 175% of the national average. Then for the portion of their costs between $276 (115% of the national average) and $360 (150% of the national average) they would receive 65% of those costs [.65 times ($360 - $276) = $54.60], plus they would receive 75% of their costs over $360 [.75 times ($420 - $360) = $45], resulting in HCLS totaling $99.60 per loop, or $996,000 total support. 13 Amendment of Part 36 of the Commission’s Rules and Establishment of a Joint Board, CC Docket No. 80-286, Report and Order, 9 FCC Rcd 303 (1993). 14 47 C.F.R. § 54.305. This applies to sales and transfers initiated after May 7, 1997. In August 2000, the Common Carrier Bureau adopted an order removing similar older caps for individual study areas that were subject to them at that time, effective January 1, 2000. Petitions for Waiver Concerning the Definition of “Study Area” Contained in Part 36 Appendix-Glossary of the Commission’s Rules, CC Docket No. 96-45, Order, 15 FCC Rcd 23491 (2000). 15 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, Multi-Association Group (MAG) Plan for Regulation of Interstate Services of Non-Price Cap Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers and Interexchange Carriers, CC Docket Nos. 96-45, 00-256, Fourteenth Report and Order, Twenty-Second Order on Reconsideration, and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in CC Docket No. 96-45, and Report and Order in CC Docket No. 00-256, 16 FCC Rcd 11244 (2001) (Rural Task Force Order). 3 - 4 began July 1, 2001 and was recently extended beyond the originally anticipated five year period. 16 The Commission rebased the HCLS fund for rural carriers, revised the corporate operations expense limitation formula, 17 and modified the indexed cap. Accordingly, beginning July 1, 2001, the caps for non-rural hold-harmless and rural HCLS are calculated separately. 18 For rural carriers, the national average annual loop cost is now frozen at $240.00 and the cap is indexed to the rate of growth in working loops of rural carriers plus the rate of inflation as measured by the Gross Domestic Product – Chained Price Index (GDP-CPI). 19 The Commission adjusted the rural HCLS cap by changing the base year for the calculations to 2000 for purposes of recalculating the cap for 2002 and subsequent years. 20 To encourage new investment in rural infrastructure, safety net additive support was made available for rural carriers whose telephone plant in service per loop increased by over 14% in one year. 21 In such cases, this additional loop support equals the difference between what the rural carrier’s HCLS would have been uncapped and what it is capped in the qualifying year less the difference between the uncapped and capped amounts in the base year. For new sales or transfers of rural exchanges, the acquiring carrier is required to keep separate cost information for the acquired exchanges to determine the eligible support for those exchanges. Safety valve support is available for new investments in infrastructure made in the acquired exchanges. 22 If a carrier is deemed to be a non-rural carrier, it now receives high-cost support based on forward-looking costs, as estimated by an FCC cost model. The Commission adopted a new 16 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, WC Docket No. 05-337, Order, 21 FCC Rcd 5514 (2006), extending rules until the Commission adopts new high-cost support rules for rural carriers. 17 Previously, in 1997, the Commission had adopted limitations on the amount of allowed corporate operations expense. The limitations are specified in section 36.621(a)(4) of the Commission's rules. 47 C.F.R. § 36.621(a)(4). 18 47 C.F.R. §§ 36.602 and 36.603. See page 3–6 below for a discussion of hold-harmless. 19 This replaces the indexing of the cap to the rate of growth of the national total of working exchange loops. 20 See Rural Task Force Order; Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, Multi- Association Group (MAG) Plan for Regulation of Interstate Services of Non-Price Cap Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers and Interexchange Carriers, CC Docket Nos. 96-45, 00-256, Order on Reconsideration, 17 FCC Rcd 11472 (2002) (Rebasing Order). 21 See 47 C.F.R. § 36.605. 22 See 47 C.F.R. § 54.305(d)-(f). 3 - 5 high-cost support mechanism for non-rural carriers on October 21, 1999, based on recommendations from the Joint Board. 23 This HCMS mechanism is based on the forward- looking costs of providing supported services 24 as determined by the Commission’s cost model. 25 For each state, the cost model calculates the wire center forward-looking cost per line incurred by non-rural carriers to provide supported services. The statewide average cost per line is then compared to the national average cost per line to determine eligibility for support. The forward- looking support mechanism provides support to non-rural carriers in those states that have a statewide average forward-looking cost per line greater than the national benchmark, which initially was set at 135 percent of the national average forward-looking cost per line. Beginning in 2004, this benchmark is now two standard deviations above the national average. 26 After determining the total amount of forward-looking support provided to non-rural carriers in a particular state, the support is then targeted to individual wire centers that have 23 See Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, Ninth Report and Order and Eighteenth Order on Reconsideration, 14 FCC Rcd 20432 (1999) (High- Cost Methodology Order), rev’d in part and remanded, Qwest Corp. v.

The Commission adopted the model platform in the Platform Order released in October 1998.

The forward- looking support mechanism provides support for all intrastate costs that exceed the benchmark. High-Cost Methodology Order, at paras. 60-63. In October 2003, the Commission adopted an order modifying the national benchmark. Order on Remand, at paras. 49-69. 3 - 6 forward-looking costs in excess of the benchmark. 27 Under the targeting approach, the amount of support provided to a non-rural carrier serving a particular wire center depends on the relative costs in that wire center and the number of lines served by the carrier. By comparing the relative costs in various above-benchmark wire centers, the targeting approach enables the Commission to provide greater amounts of support to carriers serving lines in wire centers with costs further above the benchmark. Thus, unlike providing a uniform per line statewide support amount, the targeting approach provides support in an amount commensurate with the cost of service, thereby encouraging carriers to serve high-cost areas. The Commission also adopted a transitional “hold-harmless” measure to prevent rate shocks and disruptions in state rate designs when the new mechanism took effect. As adopted, no non-rural telephone company would receive less support than it received under the embedded HCLS mechanisms during the transition period. On December 8, 2000, the Commission adopted measures to phase down interim hold-harmless support, through $1.00 reductions in average monthly per-line embedded HCLS, beginning January 1, 2001, and every year thereafter until there is no more interim embedded hold-harmless HCLS. 28 That point has now been reached. LTS was related to interstate non-traffic sensitive costs. LTS provided support to the members of the NECA common line pool, allowing them to charge a below-cost carrier common line (CCL) rate that was uniform for all companies in the pool. Prior to 1989, all ILECs were required to be part of the NECA common line (CL) pool, and CCL rates were uniform nationwide. On April 1, 1989, companies were permitted to withdraw from the NECA CL pool and provide jurisdictionally specific CCL access charges; however, carriers had to remain in the pool to receive LTS. 29 Nationwide pool results provided by NECA for 2005 are shown in Tables 3.4 and 3.5. Table 3.4 summarizes the CL pool revenues and expenses for the year 2005, as well as a comparison with the corresponding figures for 2004. Table 3.5 has comparable figures for NECA's traffic sensitive pool. To reduce disparities in CCL rates among ILECs after companies were permitted to withdraw from the CL pool, LTS was set up. LTS originally consisted of payments to the NECA CL pool from companies that withdrew from the NECA CL pool. Companies remaining in the NECA pool charge CCL rates, pursuant to the NECA tariff, which were formerly equal to the average CCL rate of the price-cap companies. Effective January 1, 1998, the funds for LTS 27 High-Cost Methodology Order, at paras. 68-76. 28 Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket No. 96-45, Thirteenth Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 15 FCC Rcd 24422 (2000). 29 See previous Monitoring Reports for a detailed list of which companies are no longer in the NECA CL pool. 3 - 7 came from the federal universal service support mechanisms, and LTS was portable to CETCs. At the same time, the NECA pool rate no longer was made equal to the average price-cap rate. Rather, the amount of LTS that a NECA pool member was eligible to receive in 1998 was the 1997 level of LTS (the difference between 1997 CCL revenue requirements and the sum of 1997 CCL revenues using the NECA pool rate and 1997 subscriber line charge revenues) multiplied by the rate of growth of the national average NTS cost per loop. The 1999 level of LTS was similarly adjusted from the 1998 level by the national average loop cost growth rate. Beginning January 1, 2000, LTS was adjusted for inflation to reflect the annual percentage change in the GDP-CPI. 30 After the implementation of ICLS (see below), the Commission determined that it was necessary to reduce LTS for some carriers to prevent over earning by those carriers whose ICLS would otherwise have fallen below zero. 31 Effective July 1, 2004, LTS was merged into ICLS. 32 In response to the 1996 Act, the Commission also has removed implicit support from interstate access charges. In November 2001, the Commission created the ICLS mechanism for rate-of-return carriers to convert implicit support in the access rate structure to explicit, portable support. 33 ICLS recovers any shortfall between the allowed common line revenues of rate-of- return carriers and their subscriber line charge revenues and gradually replaces the carrier common line charge. Under the MAG Order, the ICLS mechanism was implemented beginning on July 1, 2002. On May 31, 2000, the Commission established an explicit interstate access support (IAS) mechanism for price-cap carriers to replace the implicit support previously collected through interstate access charges. 34 Like LTS and ICLS, the purpose of this mechanism is to provide 30 See 47 C.F.R. § 54.303. 31 See Multi-Association Group (MAG) Plan for Regulation of Interstate Services of Non- Price Cap Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers and Interexchange Carriers, Federal- State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket Nos. 00-256, 96-45, Order and Second Order on Reconsideration, 17 FCC Rcd 11593 (2002) (MAG Reconsideration Order). 32 See Multi-Association Group (MAG) Plan for Regulation of Interstate Services of Non- Price Cap Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers and Interexchange Carriers, Federal- State Joint Board on Universal Service, CC Docket Nos. 00-256, 96-45, Report and Order and Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 19 FCC Rcd 4122 (2004). 33 Multi-Association Group (MAG) Plan for Regulation of Interstate Services of Non-Price Cap Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers and Interexchange Carriers, Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, Second Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in CC Docket No. 00-256, Fifteenth Report and Order in CC Docket No. 96-45, 16 FCC Rcd 19613 (2001) (MAG Order). 34 Access Charge Reform, Price Cap Performance Review for Local Exchange Carriers, 3 - 8 explicit support to ensure reasonably affordable interstate rates. This is in contrast to the Commission’s other high-cost support mechanisms, which provide support to enable states to ensure reasonably affordable and comparable intrastate rates. The IAS mechanism provides support to carriers serving lines in areas where they are unable to recover their permitted revenues from the subscriber line charges. The support total is an aggregate annual amount of approximately $650 million. Support is targeted to the density zones that have the greatest need for it, and is provided on a portable, per-line basis. It is available on a competitively neutral basis to any ETC serving a supported customer, regardless of the technology used by that carrier. LSS provides support for traffic sensitive local switching costs. LSS provides support to ILECs with study areas of 50,000 or fewer access lines, to help defray the higher switching costs of small ILECs. The LSS is recovered through the universal service support mechanisms, rather than through higher traffic-sensitive access charges. Until 1997, this support was implicitly included in those access charges, based on dial equipment minute (DEM) weighting. 35 The portion of these costs that were normally allocated to interstate was determined by the ratio of interstate to total dial equipment minutes, known as the DEM factor. However, ILEC study areas with 50,000 access lines or fewer had that portion multiplied by a weighting factor, which was determined by the number of access lines in the study area. 36 The resulting weighted DEM factor (which was not permitted to exceed .85) allowed these study areas to recover a greater portion of their local switching costs from interexchange carriers in the form of higher access charges. 37 Low-Volume Long Distance Users, Federal-State Joint Board on Universal Service, Sixth Report and Order in CC Docket Nos. 96-262 and 94-1, Report and Order in CC Docket No. 99-249, Eleventh Report and Order in CC Docket No. 96-45, 15 FCC Rcd 12962 (2000) (CALLS Order), rev’d and remanded, Texas Office of Public Utility Counsel v.
