§ 69.132   End user Consumer Broadband-Only Loop charge for non-price cap
incumbent local exchange carriers.

   (a) This section is applicable only to incumbent local exchange
   carriers that are not subject to price cap regulation as that term is
   defined in § 61.3(ee) of this chapter.

   (b) A charge that is expressed in dollars and cents per line per month
   may be assessed upon end users that subscribe to Consumer
   Broadband-Only Loop service. Such charge shall be assessed for each
   line without regulated local exchange voice service provided by a
   rate-of-return incumbent local exchange carrier to a customer, for use
   in connection with fixed Broadband Internet access service, as defined
   in § 8.2 of this chapter.

   (c) For carriers not electing model-based support pursuant to § 54.311
   of this chapter or Alaska Plan support pursuant to § 54.306 of this
   chapter, the single-line rate or charge shall be computed by dividing
   one-twelfth of the projected annual revenue requirement for the
   Consumer Broadband-Only Loop category (net of the projected annual
   Connect America Fund Broadband Loop Support attributable to consumer
   broadband-only loops) by the projected average number of consumer
   broadband-only service lines in use during such annual period.

   (d) The maximum monthly per line charge for each Consumer
   Broadband-Only Loop provided by a non-price cap local exchange carrier
   that elects model-based support pursuant to § 54.311 of this chapter or
   Alaska Plan support pursuant to § 54.306 of this chapter shall be $42.
