Sec. 65.702 Measurement of interstate service earnings.
(a) For exchange carriers, earnings shall be measured separately for each
access service category for purposes of determining compliance with the
maximum allowable rate of return. The access service categories shall be: an
aggregated category consisting of Special Access, Sec. 69.113, and Contribution
Charges for Special Access Expanded Interconnection, Sec. 69.122; Connection
Charges for Expanded Interconnection, Sec. 69.121; Common Line, Sec. Sec. 69.104–69.105;
and an aggregated category consisting of Line Termination, Sec. 69.106,
Intercept, Sec. 69.108, Local Switching, Sec. 69.107, Transport, Sec. Sec. 69.110–69.112,
69.124, 69.125, and Information, Sec. 69.109. The Billing and Collection access
element shall not be included in any access service category for purposes of
this part. The Commission will also separately review exchange carrier
overall interstate earnings subject to this part for determining compliance
with the maximum allowable rate of return determined by Sec. 65.700(b).
(b) For exchange carriers, earnings shall be measured for purposes of
determining compliance with the maximum allowable rates of return separately
for each study area; provided, however, that if the carrier has filed or
concurred in access tariffs aggregating costs and rates for two or more
study areas, the earnings will be determined for the aggregated study areas
rather than for each study area separately. If an exchange carrier has not
utilized the same level of study area aggregation during the entire two-year
earnings review period, then the carrier's earnings will be measured for the
entire two-year period on the basis of the tariffs in effect at the end of
the second year of the two-year review period; provided, however, that if
tariffs representing a higher level of study area aggregation were not in
effect for at least eight months in the second year, then the carrier's
earnings will be measured on the basis of the study area level of
aggregation in effect for the majority of the two-year period; provided
further, that any carrier that was not a member of the National Exchange
Carrier Association or other voluntary pools for both years of the two-year
review period will have its earnings reviewed individually for the full
two-year period.
