§ 51.213   Toll dialing parity implementation plans.

   (a) A LEC must file a plan for providing intraLATA toll dialing parity
   throughout each state in which it offers telephone exchange service. A
   LEC cannot offer intraLATA toll dialing parity within a state until the
   implementation plan has been approved by the appropriate state
   commission or the Commission.

   (b) A LEC's implementation plan must include:

   (1) A proposal that explains how the LEC will offer intraLATA toll
   dialing parity for each exchange that the LEC operates in the state, in
   accordance with the provisions of this section, and a proposed time
   schedule for implementation; and

   (2) A proposal for timely notification of its subscribers and the
   methods it proposes to use to enable subscribers to affirmatively
   select an intraLATA toll service provider.

   (3) A LEC that is not a BOC also shall identify the LATA with which it
   will associate for the purposes of providing intraLATA and interLATA
   toll dialing parity under this subpart.
