§ 69.311   Consumer Broadband-Only Loop investment.

   (a) Each non-price cap local exchange carrier shall remove consumer
   broadband-only loop investment assigned to the special access category
   by § § 69.301 through 69.310 from the special access category and assign
   it to the Consumer Broadband-Only Loop category when the tariff charge
   described in § 69.132 of this part becomes effective.

   (b) The consumer broadband-only loop investment to be removed from the
   special access category shall be determined using the following
   estimation method.

   (1) To determine the investment in Common Line facilities as if 100
   percent were allocated to the interstate jurisdiction, a carrier shall
   use 100 percent as the interstate allocator in determining investment
   and the allocation of investment to the common line category under part
   36 of this chapter and this part.

   (2) The result of paragraph (b)(1) of this section shall be divided by
   the number of voice and voice/data lines in the study area to produce
   an average investment per line.

   (3) The average investment per line determined by paragraph (b)(2) of
   this section shall be multiplied by the number of Consumer
   Broadband-only Loops in the study area to derive the investment to be
   shifted from the Special Access category to the Consumer Broadband-only
   Loop category.
