§ 54.803 Universal service zones.
(a) The zones used for determining interstate access universal service
support shall be the same zones that would be used for End User Common Line
(EUCL) charge deaveraging as described in § 69.152(q)(2) of this chapter.
(b) In a price cap study area where the price cap local exchange carrier has
not established state-approved prices for UNE loops by zone, the
Administrator shall develop an estimate of the local exchange carrier's Zone
Above Benchmark Revenues for transitional purposes, in order to reserve a
portion of the fund for that study area. This estimate will be included by
the Administrator in the Nationwide Study Area Above Benchmark Revenues
calculated pursuant to § 54.806.
(1) For the purpose of developing this transitional estimate, the loop and
port costs estimated by the FCC cost model, or other substitute method if no
model is available, shall be used.
(2) For the purpose of developing this transitional estimate, the
administrator shall construct three zones. Wire centers within the study
area will be grouped into these zones in such a way that each zone is
assigned approximately one third of local exchange carrier base period lines
in the study area, with the lowest cost wire centers assigned to Zone 1, the
highest cost wire centers assigned to Zone 3, and the remainder to Zone 2.
