  • interconnecting networks charges the other for terminating traffic that originates on the other network. Instead, each network recovers from its own end-users the cost of both originating traffic that it delivers to the other network and terminating traffic that it receives from the other network. ISP Remand Order, 16 F.C.C.R. at 9153 ¶2 n.6 (citations omitted); see also 47 C.F.R. §51.713(a). 8375 AT&T COMMUNICATIONS v. PAC-WEST TELECOMM Case: 08-17030 06/21/2011 Page: 12 of 37 ID: 7792201 DktEntry: 68-1 (2)Growth cap. Next, the ISP Remand Order imposed a "growth cap" on total ISP-bound minutes for which a LEC could receive reciprocal compensation. Id. at 9187 ¶78. In 2001, a LEC could receive compensation for ISP-bound min- utes equal to 110% of what

  • would provide a viable solution to the market distortions caused by ISP-bound traffic. Indeed, the Commission's experience with ISP-bound traffic suggests that a bill-and-keep approach may be most efficient where the traffic is not balanced because the obligation to pay reciprocal compensation in such situations may give rise to uneconomic incentives. We therefore conclude it is appropriate to amend section 51.713 of our rules. Legal Authority Our statutory authority to implement bill-and-keep as the default framework for the exchange of traffic with LECs flows directly from sections 251(b)(5) and 201(b) of the Act. Section 251(b)(5) states that LECs have a ``duty to establish reciprocal compensation arrangements for the transport and termination of telecommunications.'' Section 201(b) grants the Commission authority to ``prescribe
