§  51.617   Assessment of end user common line charge on resellers.

   (a) Notwithstanding the provision in § 69.104(a) of this chapter that
   the end user common line charge be assessed upon end users, an
   incumbent LEC shall assess this charge, and the charge for changing the
   designated primary interexchange carrier, upon requesting carriers that
   purchase telephone exchange service for resale. The specific end user
   common line charge to be assessed will depend upon the identity of the
   end user served by the requesting carrier.

   (b) When an incumbent LEC provides telephone exchange service to a
   requesting carrier at wholesale rates for resale, the incumbent LEC
   shall continue to assess the interstate access charges provided in part
   69 of this chapter, other than the end user common line charge, upon
   interexchange carriers that use the incumbent LEC's facilities to
   provide interstate or international telecommunications services to the
   interexchange carriers' subscribers.
