  § 51.901   Purpose and scope of transitional access service pricing rules.

   (a)  The  purpose  of this section is to establish rules governing the
   transition of intercarrier compensation from a calling-party's-network pays
   system to a default bill-and-keep methodology. Following the transition, the
   exchange of traffic between and among service providers will, by default, be
   governed by bill-and-keep arrangements.

   (b) Effective December 29, 2011, the provisions of this subpart apply to
   reciprocal compensation for telecommunications traffic exchanged between
   telecommunications providers that is interstate or intrastate exchange
   access, information access, or exchange services for such access, other than
   special access.

   Note to § 51.901: See FCC 11-161, figure 9 (chart identifying steps in the
   transition).
