§ 51.703 Non-Access reciprocal compensation obligation of LECs.
(a) Each LEC shall establish Non-Access Reciprocal Compensation arrangements
for transport and termination of Non-Access Telecommunications Traffic with
any requesting telecommunications carrier.
(b) A LEC may not assess charges on any other telecommunications carrier for
Non-Access Telecommunications Traffic that originates on the LEC's network.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Commission's rules, a LEC
shall be entitled to assess and collect the full charges for the transport
and termination of Non-Access Telecommunications Traffic, regardless of
whether the local exchange carrier assessing the applicable charges itself
delivers such traffic to the called party's premises or delivers the call to
the called party's premises via contractual or other arrangements with an
affiliated or unaffiliated provider of interconnected VoIP service, as
defined in 47 U.S.C. 153(25), or a non-interconnected VoIP service, as
defined in 47 U.S.C. 153(36), that does not itself seek to collect
Non-Access Reciprocal Compensation charges for the transport and termination
of that Non-Access Telecommunications Traffic. In no event may the total
charges that a LEC may assess for such service to the called location exceed
the applicable transport and termination rate. For purposes of this section,
the facilities used by the LEC and affiliated or unaffiliated provider of
interconnected VoIP service or a non-interconnected VoIP service for the
transport and termination of such traffic shall be deemed an equivalent
facility under § 51.701.
