Section 64.903 of the Commission's rules details the information required to be submitted in a carrier's CAM.

  • Commission established two separate but complementary sets of rules: one which governs how carriers allocate their costs between regulated and nonregulated activities and the other which governs transactions between carriers and their affiliates. The Commission required that carriers file CAMs setting out in detail the manner in which they propose to implement those cost allocation and affiliate transactions rules. Section 64.903 of the Commission's rules details the information required to be submitted in a carrier's CAM. The CAM requires, among other things, a cost apportionment table showing, for each Part 32 account containing costs incurred in providing regulated services, the cost pools within that account, the procedures used to place costs into each cost pool, and the method used to apportion

  • and the ARMIS Reporting Reductions Order, the Commission streamlined the accounting requirements for mid-sized ILECs based on the aggregate revenues of the ILEC and any ILEC that it controls, is controlled by, or with which it is under common control. In addition, small carriers (i.e. those with under $112 million in yearly operating revenues) do not file ARMIS reports. Section 64.903 of the Commission's Rules requires ILECs with $112 million or more in annual operating revenues to file cost allocation manuals (``CAMs'') setting forth the cost allocation procedures they use to allocate costs between regulated and nonregulated services. Small carriers are exempted from filing CAMs with the Commission. The Commission also adopted rules to streamline the cost allocation regulations by permitting
