§ 64.1903 Obligations of all incumbent independent local exchange carriers.
(a) An incumbent independent LEC providing in-region, interstate,
interexchange services or in-region international interexchange services
shall provide such services through an affiliate that satisfies the
following requirements:
(1) The affiliate shall maintain separate books of account from its
affiliated exchange companies. Nothing in this section requires the
affiliate to maintain separate books of account that comply with part 32 of
this title;
(2) The affiliate shall not jointly own transmission or switching facilities
with its affiliated exchange companies. Nothing in this section prohibits an
affiliate from sharing personnel or other resources or assets with an
affiliated exchange company; and
(3) The affiliate shall acquire any services from its affiliated exchange
companies for which the affiliated exchange companies are required to file a
tariff at tariffed rates, terms, and conditions. Nothing in this section
shall prohibit the affiliate from acquiring any unbundled network elements
or exchange services for the provision of a telecommunications service from
its affiliated exchange companies, subject to the same terms and conditions
as provided in an agreement approved under section 252 of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended.
(b) Except as provided in paragraph (b)(1) of this section, the affiliate
required in paragraph (a) of this section shall be a separate legal entity
from its affiliated exchange companies. The affiliate may be staffed by
personnel of its affiliated exchange companies, housed in existing offices
of its affiliated exchange companies, and use its affiliated exchange
companies' marketing and other services, subject to paragraph (a)(3) of this
section.
(1) For an incumbent independent LEC that provides in-region, interstate
domestic interexchange services or in-region international interexchange
services using no interexchange switching or transmission facilities or
capability of the LEC's own (i.e., “independent LEC reseller,”) the
affiliate required in paragraph (a) of this section may be a separate
corporate division of such incumbent independent LEC. All other provisions
of this Subpart applicable to an independent LEC affiliate shall continue to
apply, as applicable, to such separate corporate division.
(2) [Reserved]
