PART 69_ACCESS CHARGES--Table of Contents
 
 Subpart C_Computation of Charges for Price Cap Local Exchange Carriers
 
Sec. 69.153  Presubscribed interexchange carrier charge (PICC).

    (a) A charge expressed in dollars and cents per line may be assessed 
upon the Multi-line business subscriber's presubscribed interexchange 
carrier to recover revenues totaling Average Price Cap CMT Revenues per 
Line month times the number of base period lines less revenues recovered 
through the End User Common Line charge established under Sec. 69.152 
and Interstate Access Universal Service Support Per Line (as defined in 
Sec. 54.807 of this chapter) multiplied by base period lines for the 
applicable customer class and zones receiving such support, up to a 
maximum of $4.31 per line per month. In the event the ceilings on the 
PICC prevent the PICC from recovering all the residual common line/
marketing and residual interconnection charge revenues, the PICC shall 
recover all residual common line/marketing revenues before it recovers 
residual interconnection charge revenues.
    (b) If an end-user customer does not have a presubscribed 
interexchange carrier, the local exchange carrier may collect the PICC 
directly from the end user.
    (c) [Reserved]
    (d) Local exchange carriers shall assess no more than five PICCs as 
calculated under paragraph (a) of this section for Primary Rate 
Interface ISDN service.
    (e) The maximum monthly PICC for Centrex lines shall be one-ninth of 
the maximum charge determined under paragraph (a) of this section, 
except that if a Centrex customer has fewer than nine lines, the maximum 
monthly PICC for those lines shall be the maximum charge determined 
under paragraph (a) of this section divided by the customer's number of 
Centrex lines.
    (f) The PICC shall not be applicable to any payphone lines.
    (g)-(h) [Reserved]
