§ 51.707 Default proxies for incumbent LECs' transport and termination
rates.
(a) A state commission may determine that the cost information
available to it with respect to transport and termination of
telecommunications traffic does not support the adoption of a rate or
rates for an incumbent LEC that are consistent with the requirements of
§ § 51.505 and 51.511. In that event, the state commission may
establish rates for transport and termination of telecommunications
traffic, or for specific components included therein, that are
consistent with the proxies specified in this section, provided that:
(1) Any rate established through use of such proxies is superseded once
that state commission establishes rates for transport and termination
pursuant to § § 51.705(a)(1) or 51.705(a)(3); and
(2) The state commission sets forth in writing a reasonable basis for
its selection of a particular proxy for transport and termination of
telecommunications traffic, or for specific components included within
transport and termination.
(b) If a state commission establishes rates for transport and
termination of telecommunications traffic on the basis of default
proxies, such rates must meet the following requirements:
(1) Termination. The incumbent LEC's rates for the termination of
telecommunications traffic shall be no greater than 0.4 cents ($0.004)
per minute, and no less than 0.2 cents ($0.002) per minute, except
that, if a state commission has, before August 8, 1996, established a
rate less than or equal to 0.5 cents ($0.005) per minute for such
calls, that rate may be retained pending completion of a
forward-looking economic cost study.
(2) Transport . The incumbent LEC's rates for the transport of
telecommunications traffic, under this section, shall comply with the
proxies described in § 51.513(c) (3), (4), and (5) of this part that
apply to the analogous unbundled network elements used in transporting
a call to the end office that serves the called party.
