  §  36.604   Calculation of the rural growth factor.

   (a) Until July 30, 2012, the Rural Growth Factor (RGF) is equal to the
   sum of the annual percentage change in the United States Department of
   Commerce's Gross Domestic Product—Chained Price Index (GPD-CPI) plus
   the percentage change in the total number of rural incumbent local
   exchange carrier working loops during the calendar year preceding the
   July 31st filing submitted pursuant to §  36.611. The percentage change
   in total rural incumbent local exchange carrier working loops shall be
   based upon the difference between the total number of rural incumbent
   local exchange carrier working loops on December 31 of the calendar
   year preceding the July 31st filing and the total number of rural
   incumbent local exchange carrier working loops on December 31 of the
   second calendar year preceding that filing, both determined by the
   company's submissions pursuant to §  36.611. Loops acquired by rural
   incumbent local exchange carriers shall not be included in the RGF
   calculation.

   (b) Beginning July 31, 2012, pursuant to §  36.601(a) of this subpart,
   the calculation of the Rural Growth Factor shall not include price cap
   carrier working loops and rate-of-return local exchange carrier working
   loops of companies that were affiliated with price cap carriers during
   the calendar year preceding the July 31st filing submitted pursuant to
   §  36.611.
