2.2.3 Pricing

All interim prices are subject to true-up adjustment with interest. In the interim, CLCs will pay Pacific $5.85 per month, and GTE $3.00 per month, for use of the high frequency portion of the loop. Revenues from the monthly recurring charge for use of the loop, and revenues from other rates that contribute to joint and common costs, will be tracked in a memorandum account. The Commission will consider in the final portion of the line sharing phase whether or not the balance, or any portion thereof, in the memorandum accounts should be allocated to ILEC voice customer ratepayers.

The ILECs' recommendations are adopted regarding the number of, and charges for, tie cables, subject to adjustment in the final portion of the line sharing phase in this proceeding. A CLC will pay the price for the OSS system used (i.e., mechanized, semi-mechanized, manual), but the ILEC-proposed semi-mechanized and manual OSS rates are reduced by 50%. ILECs may charge for conditioning. Removal of a digital added main line device is required when it affects only one customer, and the customer agrees. ILECs may not charge for loop qualification.
