Sec.  69.707   Geographic scope of petition.

   (a) MSA. (1) A price cap LEC filing a petition for pricing flexibility in an
   MSA shall include data sufficient to support its petition, as set forth in
   this subpart, disaggregated by MSA.

   (2) A price cap LEC may request pricing flexibility for two or more MSAs in
   a single petition, provided that it submits supporting data disaggregated by
   MSA.

   (b) Non-MSA. (1) A price cap LEC will receive pricing flexibility with
   respect  to  those parts of a study area that fall outside of any MSA,
   provided  that  it  provides data sufficient to support a finding that
   competitors have collocated in a number of wire centers in that non-MSA
   region sufficient to satisfy the criteria for the pricing flexibility sought
   in the petition, as set forth in this subpart, if the region at issue were
   an MSA.

   (2) The petitioner may aggregate data for all the non-MSA regions in a
   single study area for which it requests pricing flexibility in its petition.

   (3) A petitioner may request pricing flexibility in the non-MSA regions of
   two or more of its study areas, provided that it submits supporting data
   disaggregated by study area.
