Part 69. Part 69 establishes two basic categories of access services: special access services and switched access services. Compare 47 C.F.R. § 69.114 with 47 C.F.R. § 69.106. Special access services employ dedicated facilities between the end user and an IXC point of presence (POP), the physical point where an IXC connects its network with the LEC network. Charges for special access services generally are divided into channel termination charges and interoffice facility charges. Channel termination charges (which can include a flat-rated charge and a mileage component) recover

As part of that authorization, the Bureau required the carriers to move marketing expenses from the Traffic-sensitive and Trunking Baskets to the Common Line Basket. Furthermore, sections 69.106 and 69.111 of the Commission's rules require a degree of unbundling for price cap LECs that is not required of rate-of-return LECs. A review of the initial tariff filings of the two carriers reveals that Puerto Rico did not properly move marketing expenses from the Traffic-sensitive and Trunking Baskets to the Common Line Basket.
