Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

v

Introduction and Overview

The Statistics of Communications Common Carriers (SOCC), which has been published annually since 1939, isone of the most widely used reference works in the field of telecommunications. It is the only permanent recordof common carrier activity published by the Government Printing Office and sent to repository libraries. Themost recent edition may be purchased by mail from the Superintendent of Documents, Washington, DC 20202-9328, or by calling GPO's Order and Inquiry Desk at (202) 512-1800.

Sources of Information

Much of the material contained in this volume is available well before the SOCC is published by theGovernment Printing Office.

Internet

The Common Carrier Bureau has a home page on the World Wide Web. This home page can be accesseddirectly at www.fcc.gov/ccb or through a link from the main FCC home page at www.fcc.gov. The materialsavailable include orders, notices of proposed rulemaking, statistical reports, public notices, news releases, factsheets, and answers to frequently asked questions (FAQs). Prior to the development of the Internet, anelectronic bulletin board called FCC-State Link had been established to share data electronically with stateagencies, and a portion of the FCC’s Internet site still bears that original name. The FCC-State Link includesall of the files contained in the SOCC and a variety of other reports that are used in the preparation of theSOCC. The FCC-State Link can be reached directly at www.fcc.gov/ccb/stats. The annual carriersubmissions that are used in developing many of the tables in this publication can also be found atwww.fcc.gov/ccb/armis/db.

Duplicating Contractors and Reference Information Center

Several private firms specialize in locating, duplicating, and distributing FCC documents. The Commission'scurrent duplicating contractor is Qualex International (Qualex). Documents may be purchased by callingQualex at (202) 863-2893, or via e-mail at [email protected]. Reports and the summaries used in thepreparation of the SOCC are also available in the FCC's Reference Information Center. This facility is locatedon the Courtyard Level, 445 12th Street S.W., Washington, D.C. The center contains self-service, card- or coin-operated copying machines for use by the general public.

Coverage

Local Telephone Companies

There are approximately 1,300 companies that have historically provided local telephone service in the UnitedStates. These companies, often referred to as incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs), range in size fromrural cooperatives serving fewer than 100 customers to large holding companies serving millions of telephonelines. In most cases, only larger companies (those with more than $117 million in annual revenues in 2000) arerequired to file information with the FCC, and only telephone companies affiliated with the four largest holdingcompanies are required to file the most extensive information. New telephone service providers, referred to ascompetitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), and providers of wireless telephone service are not required tofile detailed statistical data with the Commission.

In 2000, as shown in the detailed statistics in Tables 2.10 and 2.11, there were 52 reporting ILECs. While thesecompanies account for more than 90% of the local telephone lines served by ILECs, they do not reflect acomplete census of the industry.

Long Distance Companies

More than 700 firms buy access from local telephone companies in order to provide long distance service and alimited amount of information on the larger long distance companies is contained in various tables throughoutthe SOCC. Among long distance carriers, only AT&T and Alascom, which once were regarded as dominantcarriers possessing market power, were ever required to file detailed reports. These data are contained in earliereditions of this publication. The reporting requirements, however, were eliminated when the FCC determinedthat AT&T was no longer a dominant carrier.

Accounting Standards

A new Uniform System of Accounts (USOA) for the telephone industry became effective at the beginning of1988. The detailed tables in this report are based on that system. This year’s tables reflect a number of changesin the Commission’s accounting rules that were adopted in 1999. The most significant of these is thestreamlining of the accounting requirements for certain mid-sized ILECs. The streamlining is based on theaggregate revenue of a company and all its affiliates. Currently, full Class A reporting requirements areimposed only where the aggregate revenues of an ILEC and its affiliates exceed $7 billion. In 2000, onlyBellSouth, Qwest, SBC, and Verizon remained subject to full Class A reporting requirements. The results forthe 30 carriers affiliated with these firms appear in Table 2.10. The amount of state-by-state information variesfrom company to company. Ameritech, now a subsidiary of SBC, has historically maintained a separateoperating company in each state and consequently files information for each state. In contrast, Qwest, formerlyU S WEST, has consolidated its operations into a single company servicing 14 states, and it files aggregatedinformation.

Where the revenues of all affiliated ILECs total less than $7 billion, each of the affiliated ILECs earningrevenues over the reporting threshold is eligible for Class B (streamlined) reporting treatment. Results for themid-sized companies are shown in Table 2.11. The total number of reporting companies (52) is unchangedfrom 1999.

The USOA applies to telephone operating companies. It is not designed to capture the activities of parentholding companies or subsidiaries. Where activities have been transferred from telephone companies to holdingcompanies or subsidiaries, the revenues from those activities cease to be reported by the operating companies.For this reason, along with several other differences between financial and regulatory accounting systems, theresults contained in reports to the FCC may differ markedly from reports to the SEC.

Timing of the SOCC

Most companies report information for the prior calendar year to stockholders and to the Securities andExchange Commission by April 1. At that same time, they provide annual reports on their domestic operationsto the FCC. The basic raw data are made available to the public as soon as received. This statistical summaryis produced after the data has been checked, inquiries on suspect items sent to the carriers, correctedsubmissions received, and the industry tables compiled. Unlike data for domestic operations, corrected data for

international services are typically not received until at least ten months after the end of the year being reported.Summaries of the international data are typically prepared and released in November.

We have shortened the production cycle in order to reduce the delay in publication. This has been done bylagging the publication of international data by one year. Thus, this edition of the SOCC contains theinternational statistics only through 1999. International data for 2000 will be available at the usual time throughthe Internet, from duplicating contractors, and in the FCC’s public reference center, but it will not be publishedin the SOCC until next year.

Other Information Sources

The United States Telephone Association represents most local telephone companies. Like many tradeassociations, it collects information from each of its members. Annually, it prepares, publishes and sellsstatistical publications such as Phone Facts and Statistics of the Local Exchange Carriers.

The Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) represents the wireless industry. SinceJanuary 1985, it has conducted a semi-annual wireless survey, which consists of data on the wireless industryincluding the number of subscribers, revenues, employees, and average local monthly bill.

The Telecommunications Industry Association’s (TIA) members consist of manufacturers and suppliers of theproducts and services used in telecommunications. TIA publishes annually the MultimediaTelecommunications Market Review and Forecast, which provides an overview of the telecommunicationsindustry.

The 2000/2001 volume of the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers, was prepared by John Adesalu,Linda Blake, Mike Lehner, and Katie Rangos under the supervision and direction of Alan Feldman. Many ofthe tables appearing in Part 5 are based on the statistical work of other members of the staff of the IndustryAnalysis Division, especially Alex Belinfante and Jim Lande. All have worked long and hard to expand andimprove the publication.

We invite comments and suggestions for further improvements. For your convenience, the survey form on thefollowing page may be used for your response.

Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

Notes for Tables 2.2 through 2.5

Data for Tables 2.2 through 2.5 were obtained from annual ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) operating data reports (FCC Report 43-08) of reporting incumbent local exchange carriers.

See Table 2.6 for data of individual carriers. Zero entries, as distinguished from blank spaces, denote there is no information to report. Totals by state may be understated because of the incomplete data.

Detail may not match totals because of necessary rounding.

Changes to Companies during Year 2000

GTE Midwest, Inc. d/b/a Verizon Midwest, Missouri operations, sold 107 exchanges to Spectra Communications, Inc. on July 31, 2000.

Verizon North, Inc., Wisconsin operations, sold 42 exchanges to CenturyTel, Inc. on September 30, 2000 and 35 exchanges to Telephone USA on September 30, 2000. Its Illinois operations sold 107 exchanges to Communications Communications Co. on November 30, 2000.

Verizon South, Inc. sold three Illinois exchanges to Citizens Communications Co. on November 30, 2000.

GTE Southwest, Inc. d/b/a Verizon Southwest, Texas operations, sold 198 exchanges to Valor Telecommunications on August 31, 2000.

Outside Plant Statistics

Unless otherwise stated, data include local loop and interoffice facilities. A cable containing only copper, coaxial or other metallic conductors is classified as metallic, but a cable containing both fiber and copper, coaxial or metallic conductors is classified as fiber. Kilometers equals total miles multiplied by 1.6093 and then rounded to the nearest whole number. Non-zero entries in the ARMIS reports of less than 1 kilometer are reported as 1 kilometer.

Equivalent number of poles is the number of solely owned poles plus the sum of the products of the numbers of those jointly owned times their ownership percentages.

Access Lines

Access lines include WATS and WATS-like access lines, 800 and 800-like access lines, and employee concession lines, but not official/company circuits. Analog access lines are shown in 4Khz equivalents and include access lines from digital switches if the lines themselves are not terminated at the customer's premises as digital lines.

Digital access lines are shown in 64 Kbps equivalents. To be classified as digital, the access lines must be terminated at the customer end as digital lines or be available for use by the customer as digital lines.

Other switched access lines exclude digital centrex extensions, which were included prior to 1991. Switched access lines exclude ISDN control channels, which were included as 64 Kbps equivalents prior to 1991. Switched access lines also exclude WATS and WATS-like access lines, which were included as switched access lines prior to 1997. WATS and WATS-like access lines are classified as special access lines.

Verizon North, Inc., Wisconsin operations, sold 42 exchanges to CenturyTel, Inc. on September 30, 2000 and 35 exchanges to Telephone Figures for switched access lines reported in the ARMIS 43-08 Report for some companies are slightly different from figures for billable access lines reported in the ARMIS annual summary report (FCC Report 43-01) for a variety of reasons, including different reporting requirements, the interpretation of those requirements by the various companies, and the methods different companies use to calculate the number of lines. The majority of the differences come from the fact that derived ISDN channels are included in the count of switched access lines in the ARMIS 43-08, but are not treated as billable access lines in the ARMIS 43-01. Some companies may have included official/company circuits with ARMIS 43-08 access lines. BellSouth Telecommunications, Inc. excluded feature Group A, out-WATS, 800 service, and two-way WATS from access lines. The company reported only CPE and semi-public access lines as public access lines. The company was unable to provide digital PBX & Centrex trunks by technology, reporting analog and digital PBX & Centrex trunks in the analog category.

conductors is classified as metallic, but a cable containing both fiber and copper, coaxial or metallic conductors is classified as fiber. The Ameritech operating companies, now part of SBC, did not report digital PBX & Centrex trunks or Centrex extensions. Pacific Bell did not report digital Centrex extensions.

The following Verizon companies did not report digital PBX & Centrex trunks and digital Centrex extensions by technology: Verizon California, Verizon Florida, Verizon Hawaii, Contel of the South d/b/a Verizon Mid-States, GTE Midwest d/b/a Verizon Midwest, Verizon Northwest, Verizon South, and GTE Southwest d/b/a Verizon Southwest. Puerto Rico Telephone Co. did not report Centrex extensions by technology.

The following ALLTEL companies reported digital PBX trunks as analog: Aliant, ALLTEL Carolina, and ALLTEL Georgia. All of the ALLTEL companies reported digital Centrex extensions as analog. None of them reported digital Centrex trunks.

The Sprint operating companies did not report digital Centrex extensions.

Telephone Calls and Minutes

The number of toll calls is based on originating message volumes and includes outward calls, 800 and 800-like service, directory service, dial-it services (e.g., 900 and 936 services), and optional calling plans. IntraLATA toll calls are carried by the reporting local operating company within a given Local Access and Transport Area (LATA). InterLATA toll calls are directed to and carried by interexchange carriers. Billed access minutes are based on bills sent to interexchange carriers and include total originating and terminating access minutes-of-use, including call set-up time, holding time, and conversation time.

Source: Annual ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) operating data reports (FCC Report 43-08) of reporting incumbent local exchange carriers.

Note -- Certain data pertaining to the carriers included in this table are unavailable. Where such is the case, the space provided for the information has been left blank, as distinguished from insertion of zero, which means that none was reported.

-- Detail may not match totals because of necessary roundings. -- Unless otherwise stated, outside plant statistics include local loop and interoffice facilities. A cable containing only copper, coaxial or other metallic conductors is classified as metallic, but a cable containing both fiber and copper, coaxial or other metallic conductors is classified as fiber.

-- Kilometers equals total miles multiplied by 1.6093 and then rounded to the nearest whole number. Non-zero entries in the ARMIS reports of less than 1 kilometer are reported as 1 kilometer. -- Equivalent number of poles is the number of solely owned poles plus the sum of the products of the numbers of jointly owned times their ownership percentages.

-- Access lines include WATS and WATS-like access lines, and 800 and 800-like access lines, and employee concession lines, but not official/company circuits. Analog access lines are shown in 4Khz equivalents and include access lines from digital switches if the lines themselves are not terminated at the customer's premises as digital lines. Digital access lines are shown in 64 kbps equivalents. To be classified as digital, the access lines must be terminated at the customer end as digital lines or be available for use by the customer as digital lines.

-- Other switched access lines exclude digital Centrex extensions, which were included prior to 1991. Switched access lines exclude ISDN control channels, which were included as 64 Kbps equivalents prior to 1991. Switched access lines also exclude WATS and WATS-like access lines, which were included as switched access lines prior to 1997. WATS and WATS-like access lines are classified as special access lines.

-- Figures for switched access lines reported in the ARMIS 43-08 Report for some companies are slightly different from figures for billable access lines reported in the ARMIS annual summary report (FCC Report 43-01) for a variety of reasons, including different reporting requirements, the interpretation of those requirements by the various companies, and the methods different companies use to calculate the lines. The majority of the differences come from the fact that derived ISDN channels are included in the count of switched access lines in the ARMIS 43-08, but are not treated as billable access lines in the ARMIS 43-01. Some companies may have included official/company circuits with the ARMIS 43-08 access lines.

-- The number of toll calls is based on originating message volumes and includes outward calls, 800 and 800-like service, directory service, dial-it services (e.g., 900 and 936 services), and optional calling plans. IntraLATA toll calls are carried by the reporting local operating company within a given Local Access and Transport Area (LATA). InterLATA toll calls are directed to and carried by interexchange carriers. Billed access minutes are based on bills sent to interexchange carriers and include total originating and terminating access minutes of use, including call set-up time, holding time, and conversation time.

Footnotes Pertaining to Data on Individual Carriers

1/ BellSouth Telecommunications, Inc. excluded feature Group A, out-WATS, 800 service, and two-way WATS from access lines. The company reported only CPE and semi-public access lines as public access lines. The company was unable to provide digital PBX & Centrex trunks by technology, reporting analog and digital PBX & Centrex trunks in the analog category.

2/ The Ameritech operating companies, now part of SBC, did not report digital PBX & Centrex trunks or Centrex extensions. Pacific Bell did not report digital Centrex extensions.

3/ The following Verizon companies did not report digital PBX & Centrex trunks and digital Centrex extensions by technology: Verizon California, Verizon Florida, Verizon Hawaii, Contel of the South d/b/a Verizon Mid-States, GTE Midwest d/b/a Verizon Midwest, Verizon Northwest, Verizon South, and GTE Southwest d/b/a Verizon Southwest. Puerto Rico Telephone Co. did not report Centrex extensions by technology.

4/ The following ALLTEL companies reported digital PBX trunks as analog: Aliant, ALLTEL Carolina, and ALLTEL Georgia. All of the ALLTEL companies reported digital Centrex extensions as analog. None of them reported digital Centrex trunks.

5/ Citizens Telecommunications Co. of New York, Inc. footnoted that the number of local calls was not available.

6/ The Sprint operating companies did not report digital Centrex extensions.

Changes to Companies during Year 2000

7/ GTE Midwest, Inc. d/b/a Verizon Midwest, Missouri operations, sold 107 exchanges to Spectra Communications, Inc. on July 31, 2000.

8/ Verizon North, Inc., Wisconsin operations, sold 42 exchanges to CenturyTel, Inc. on September 30, 2000 and 35 exchanges to Telephone USA on September 30, 2000. Its Illinois operations sold 107 exchanges to Citizens Communications Company on November 30, 2000.

9/ Verizon South, Inc. sold three Illinois exchanges to Citizens Communications Company on November 30, 2000.

10/ GTE Southwest, Inc. d/b/a Verizon Southwest, Texas operations, sold 198 exchanges to Valor Telecommunications on August 31, 2000.

Note -- Detail may not match totals because of necessary rounding.

1/ See Tables 2.10 and 2.11 for data of individual carriers. The FCC's Accounting Review Order, 14 FCC Rcd 11396 (1999), established stream- lined reporting requirements for mid-sized incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) beginning with the1999 reporting year. A mid-sized ILEC is a carrier whose annual operating revenues, either individually or when aggregated with those of any ILEC that it controls, is controlled by, or with which it is under common control, are less than $7 billion. Interexchange carriers are not required to file comprehensive reports with the Commission; however, limited information for such carriers with operating revenues at or above the 2000 reporting threshold of $117 million are included in Tables 1.2 through 2.1. Blank spaces denote the ILEC accounts that have been deleted to reflect the new streamlined reporting requirements.2/ Discrepancies between last year's ending balance and this year's beginning balances are due to additions, deletions, and mergers of reporting carriers.

Notes for Table 2.9.

Source: Annual ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) USOA Reports (FCC Report 43-02) of reporting incumbent local exchange carriers.

Note -- The FCC's Accounting Review Order, 14 FCC Rcd 11396 (1999), established streamlined reporting requirements for mid-sized incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) beginning with the 1999 reporting year. A mid-sized carrier is a carrier whose annual operating revenues, either individually or when aggregated with those of any ILEC that it controls, is controlled by, or with which it is under common control, are less than $7 billion.

-- Detail may not match totals because of necessary roundings.

-- In the account number column, four-digit numbers are used when there is a corresponding account number in the Uniform System of Accounts (USOA). Three-digit numbers correspond to items defined in the ARMIS USOA report (FCC Report 43-02).

Notes for Table 2.11

Source: Annual ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) USOA Reports (FCC Report 43-02) of reporting incumbent local exchange carriers.

Note -- The FCC's Accounting Review Order, 14 FCC Rcd 11396 (1999), established streamlined reporting requirements for mid-sized incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) beginning in the 1999 reporting year. A mid-sized carrier is a carrier whose annual operating revenues either individually or when aggregated with those of any ILEC that it controls, is controlled by, or with which it is under common control, are less than $7 billion.

-- Detail may not match totals because of necessary roundings.

-- In the account number column, four-digit numbers are used when there is a corresponding account number in the Uniform System of Accounts (USOA). Three-digit numbers correspond to items defined in the ARMIS USOA report (FCC Report 43-02).

Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

Notes for Tables 2.12 through 2.19

Data for these tables were obtained from the ARMIS (Automated Reporting Management Information System) reports(FCC Report 43-01) filed by incumbent local exchange companies with operating revenues for the year 1999 equal to orin excess of $114 million. The FCC's Accounting Review Order, 14 Rcd 11396 (1999), established streamlined reportingrequirements for mid-sized incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) beginning in the 1999 reporting year. A mid-sizedcarrier is a carrier whose annual operating revenues either individually or when aggregated with those of any ILEC itcontrols, is controlled by, or with which it is under common control, are less than $7 billion.

The reports are filed on a study-area basis and include financial and operational data on revenues, expenses, investment,access lines and minutes of use.

Information presented in these tables was received from 9 companies for 121 study areas representing all the states (exceptAlaska), the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. One small GTE (now Verizon) study area coversportions of states; data from this study area are labeled unclassified. Data for all tables are derived from the 2000 calendar-year submissions from the companies.

Detail may not match totals because of necessary roundings.

Detail and totals shown may not match detail or totals shown elsewhere in this publication or from sources which have similardata element names. Some of the reasons are:

1. The Commission's instructions to the companies as to which data sub-elements should be included when reporting aparticular data element may vary among the different ARMIS reports.

2. Some companies may interpret the Commission's instructions differently.

3. Some companies may use different internal data bases to compile data for different ARMIS reports; e.g., Qwestincludes data for Malheur Telephone Company in its 43-01 data submission for the company's Oregon study area; however,the company does not include data from Malheur in its 43-02 (ARMIS USOA report) data submission, which is aggregatedat the total company level.

4. Some companies discover discrepancies and refile data for one ARMIS report but not another.

5. Tables 2.12 - 2.19 do not include Commonwealth Telephone Company since that carrier does not provide data for allcolumns requested in the ARMIS 43-01.

Both Commission and company personnel are working to detect and correct discrepancies in the data and to clarify thereporting requirements.

The nine companies that filed ARMIS 43-01 data from which these tables were derived are:

Notes for Tables 2.12 through 2.18

The total column reflects the operating results for each of the rows itemized in these tables, and it includes all regulated andnonregulated company operations for each row. These amounts are presented prior to separation between state andinterstate jurisdictions.

Subtracting all non-regulated and adjustments from the total column gives the subject-to-separations column, which reflectsthat portion of each row that must be allocated between state and interstate jurisdictions pursuant to part 36 of theCommission's rules.

The state and interstate columns reflect the allocation of the amount in the subject-to-separations column into its state andinterstate components pursuant to those rules. In some instances, the interstate column also reflects Commission-prescribed adjustments made after the separations process. These adjustments are made only at the interstate level; consequently, thestate and interstate columns may not necessarily add up to the subject-to-separations column.

All the remaining columns concern the further sub-division of the interstate column amount into various elements pursuant topart 69 of the Commission's rules.

The common line access element columns reflect costs that are recovered through subscriber line charges and a carriercommon line charge assessed upon all interexchange carriers that use local exchange common line facilities for the provisionof interstate or foreign telecommunications services. These costs are allocated to the pay telephone or inside wire columnswhere applicable, with any residual allocated to the base factor portion column. For some rows where no allocation isspecified, the entire common line cost is shown in the total column.

The traffic-sensitive access element columns reflect costs associated with traffic-sensitive plant engineered to handle theanticipated volume of calls. The switching column reflects that portion of each row associated with the connection of tolllines, or toll lines to local central offices, exclusive of equal access costs if the exchange carrier has a separate equal accesselement. The equal access column includes only initial incremental expenditures for hardware and other equipment, andinitial incremental presubscription costs related to the provision of equal access which would not be required absent theprovision of equal access. This column applies to only those carriers having a separate equal access rate element. Thetransport column reflects that portion of each line item applicable to charges assessed upon all interexchange carriers whouse switching or transport facilities that are apportioned to the transport element or elements for purposes of apportioningnet investment. The information column reflects that portion of each row applicable to charges assessed upon all inter-exchange carriers that are connected to assistance boards through interexchange directory assistance trunks.

The special access column reflects that portion of each row applicable to the total of all sub-elements that have been established for the use of equipment or facilities assigned to the special access element for purposes of apportioning netinvestment.

The total access column reflects the sum of the common line total column, the traffic-sensitive total column, and the specialthe special access column.

The billing and collection column reflects that portion of each row applicable to billing and collection services.

The interexchange column reflects that portion of each row applicable to interexchange services.

The mid-sized LECs do not file rows 1340, 1350, and 1360 in Table 2.12.

The mid-sized LECs do not file rows 1410, 1420, 1490, and 1590 for taxes, but file row 1595, federal, state, and other. Thisis reflected in Tables 2.12 and 2.15.

Notes for Table 2.19

Billable Access Lines

Figures for billable access lines reported in the ARMIS 43-01 report for some companies are slightly differentfrom figures for switched access lines reported in the ARMIS 43-08 report for a variety of reasons, includingdifferent reporting requirements, the interpretation of those requirements by the various companies, and themethods different companies use to calculate the number of lines. The majority of the differences come fromthe fact that WATS, WATS-like, and derived ISDN channels are not treated as billable access lines in the ARMIS 43-01, but are included in the count of access lines in the ARMIS 43-08. Some companies may haveincluded company official lines in their ARMIS 43-08 report.

Definitions of the billable access columns in the table follow:

1. Residence lifeline - customer premises terminations (CPTs) for which the residence interstate subscriber linecharge is reduced or waived. A CPT is a line termination at the customer premise, rather than at the centraloffice. CPTs are commonly referred to as billable units.

2. Residence non-lifeline - CPTs subject to the residence interstate subscriber line charge excluding lifelineCPTs.

3. Business single line - CPTs subject to the single-line business interstate subscriber line charge, excludingcompany official, mobile radiotelephone and public telephones.

4. Business multiline - CPTs subject to the multiline business interstate subscriber line charge, includingmultiline semi-public lines, PBX trunks, Centrex CU trunks, hotel/motel LD trunks and Centrex CO lines.

5. Special access - lines subject to a $25 surcharge. The surcharge applies to lines connecting two customerpremise locations, one of which is a PBX that may connect to the public switched network.

6. Total billable access lines - the sum of the aforementioned five columns of data.

Traffic-Sensitive Minutes of Use

Total premium traffic-sensitive MOU are calculated by dividing adjusted premium line termination revenuesby the line termination rate, calculated pursuant to section 69.205 of the FCC rules.

Total non-premium traffic-sensitive MOU are calculated by dividing the adjusted non-premium traffic-sensitiveline termination revenues by the product of the line termination rate and 0.45, calculated pursuant to section69.113 of the FCC rules.

Notes for Tables 3.1 through 3.3.

Data shown were combined from reports submitted to the FCC by international carriers pursuant to Section 43.61 of the Commission's rules and regulations. Detail may not add to totals due to rounding.

The domestic United States consists of Alaska, Hawaii, the conterminous United States, and Puerto Rico. The total for U.S. points shown in the tables represents the total traffic between the domestic United States and other U.S. points (American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Wake Island, and the U.S. Virgin Islands).

In Table 3.1, figures between -500 and 0 are denoted (*). Figures between 0 and 500 are denoted *.

Data for individual United States points (including small points such as American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands), and data for individual carriers, are included in the Section 43.61 International Telecommunications Data report, published annually by the Industry Analysis Division of the FCC's Common Carrier Bureau.

Carriers have requested confidential treatment for transiting minutes by country.

Carriers report the number of leased circuits and the number of 64 kilobits per second (64 Kbps) equivalent bearercircuits as of year-end.

Notes for Table 3.4

Traffic Arrangements: U.S. carriers use the following types of arrangements to govern the exchange of trafficbetween themselves and foreign carriers.

1/ Traditional - Traffic settled according to the Commission's International Settlements Policy (ISP). The ISP requires that the U.S. carrier and its foreign correspondent share the accounting rate on a 50/50 basis. An accounting rate is part of a compensation agreement negotiated between a U.S. carrier and its foreign correspondent on a particular international route.

2/ ISR/Hubbed - International Simple Resale (ISR) refers to the provision of switched services over private lines, interconnected to the public switched network, between the United States and Commission-approved countries. Switched hubbing refers to the provision of switched services over interconnected private lines between the U.S. and an ISR-approved country in order to originate or terminate U.S. traffic in a third country. See 47 CFR 63.17.

3/ Alternative - Also referred to as flexible settlement arrangements. Carriers must report separately in their section 43.61 traffic reports their U.S. and foreign billed traffic that was settled under an alternative settlement arrangement for which the carrier received Commission approval under section 64.1002 of the rules.

1/ Data through 1990 are as reported in the Statistics of Communications Common Carriers (SOCC), with the following adjustments: 1) telephone traffic for Canada and Mexico have been added for 1980 through 1990 but not for prior years; 2) traffic between the U.S. mainland, Alaska, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico have been removed for 1964 through 1984, but not for prior years. The telephone data through 1990 originated in FCC Form M filings and represent traffic between the domestic United States and off-shore points. Data through 1985 are for AT&T only. Data through 1967 include some transiting traffic. Starting in 1990, the SOCC includes calls between international points and Alaska and Hawaii. The record data for those years (telegraph, telex, and record private line) are based on FCC Form O/R filings. Starting in 1991, data have been taken from the latest version of Section 43.61 International Telecommunications Data reports and represent traffic between all U.S. points and all international points, and include a small amount of traffic between domestic U.S. points and offshore U.S. points. Data exclude pure resale traffic unless otherwise noted.

2/ Through 1990, data for Canada and Mexico were based on supplemental information provided by carriers and staff estimates. See Trends in the U.S. International Telecommunications Industry, September 1999, Appendices B & C.

3/ Through 1990, data for Federal Republic of Germany.

4/ Through 1991, data for the USSR. The 1992 figure includes traffic for the former Soviet republics.

5/ The Herschfeld-Herfendahl Index (HHI) value for the market is based on the market shares for each entrant. A lower bound estimate is calculated using the share for the largest entrants only. An upper bound is calculated by imputing the shares of all other carriers to three equal-sized firms.

6/ End-user revenues are estimated as the total revenues for facilities-based and facilities-resale service plus 10% of pure resale revenues. The amounts for carriers other than the four largest are estimated as half of their total billed revenues. The amounts for the largest carriers are estimated as the balance of the total. For 1999, these assump- tions produce data that are roughly consistent with data filed on FCC Form 499-A.

7/ Retained revenues shown for service that originates or terminates in the United States. These figures exclude revenues for calls that transit the United States. Retained revenues are calculated as revenues billed by U.S. carriers, less settlement amounts owed to foreign carriers for U.S. billed traffic, plus settlement amounts due to U.S. carriers for foreign billed traffic.

8/ The annual rates of growth were estimated by fitting a log linear regression to data for the years indicated. Growth rates were omitted if not meaningful, which is the case where the year-to-year changes are inconsistent.

9/ The accounting rates shown are for rates available to all carriers for traffic carried during the peak period. The peak period is defined in the accounting rate agreement and varies by country. In addition to varying by time of day, some accounting rate agreements vary by volume of traffic. Some traffic is settled under alternative accounting rate agreements. See annual Section 43.61 International Telecommunications Data reports for detailed descriptions of different traffic arrangements. Accounting rates typically are denominated in dollars, gold francs (G.F.), or Standard Drawing Rights (S.D.R.).

10/ Where more than one PTT connects with U.S. carriers, the table shows rates for the first carrier providing service. These include Korea Telecom in Korea, Kokusai Denshin Denwa in Japan, PLDT in the Philippines, CODETEL in the Dominican Republic, and British Telecom in the United Kingdom.

11/ Accounting rates for service between Mexico and the United States vary by service classification and the originating or terminating locations. Each rate shown in the table represents a simple average for all accounting rates in effect for service between the United States and Mexico.

Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

Notes to Tables 4.1 through 4.9

The historical data presented in these tables were compiled from previous editions of Statistics of Communi-cations Common Carriers (SOCC), formerly known as Statistics of the Communications Industry in the United States. For the most part, the original data were gathered from the annual reports of Class A telephone carriersand, beginning in 1957, include the voluntary submissions of selected large telephone companies not subject to theCommission's reporting requirements. The 1950 data include information submitted by Class B carriers, which aresmaller companies that have less detailed accounting requirements than Class A carriers.

Over the years, the number of carriers reporting to the Commission has varied because of mergers, carrierreclassification, and changes in the reporting criteria. In 1985, the annual operating revenue requirement for tele-phone carrier reporting was changed from $1 million to $100 million. As a result, twenty-one companies that hadfiled a report for 1984 were relieved of this requirement the following year. These carriers accounted for about $440million in total operating revenues in 1984, with two-thirds of them reporting less than $20 million.

On Jan. 1, 1988, a revised Uniform System of Accounts (USOA) went into effect. As a result of these revisions,data submitted under the new rules may not be comparable on a one-to-one basis with data filed for previous years.In these tables, USOA account numbers are given for each column heading (where applicable). The three-digitnumbers refer to Part 31 of the Commission's rules, whereas those with four digits refer to Part 32, the revised USOAthat superseded Part 31.

In the 1995/96 edition of this publication, the 1995 data did not include AT&T Communications or Alascomwhich had been acquired by AT&T Corp.) because the detailed reporting requirements for these carriers were elimi-nated after the Commission had decided that AT&T would no longer be considered a dominant carrier. In the 1996/1997 book, these tables were revised to exclude data for the aforementioned carriers for 1984 and subsequent years--the period since AT&T's divestiture of the Bell operating companies. (The double line in the year column of eachtable marks the time of divestiture, which was effective Jan. 1, 1984.) Therefore, the data for 1984 to the present arenot comparable to the data for 1950-83. Historical data that include AT&T Communications and Alascom appear inthe 1994/1995 and earlier editions of this publication.

Beginning with the reports filed for 1999, new and revised accounting rules that were adopted by the Commis-sion on May 18, 1999 (14 FCC Rcd 11396) streamlined the reporting requirements for certain mid-sized incumbentlocal exchange carriers. As a result of these changes, only the large reporting carriers included in Table 2.10 ofthis publication continue to report certain categories of revenues and plant that are presented in these historicaltables. Such items are indicated by the italicized figures in tables 4.1, 4.3, 4.4, and 4.9.

Revenues In Table 4.3, the toll private line revenue categories used for the 1950-87 period were introduced in the 1981 annual reports, and are not completely comparable to the categories listed in the reports for 1980 and prior years.The revenue breakdown before 1981 was as follows: telephone, teletypewriter, other telegraph, Telpak (beginningin 1961), program transmission - audio, program transmission - video, and other private line services.

1/ Effective Nov. 15, 1999, account 5010, public telephone revenues, was eliminated.

2/ Access revenues were first reported in 1984 following the AT&T divestiture.

3/ In the 1957 through 1973 SOCC books, details of private line revenues were not totaled for carriers that had filed reports on a voluntary basis. In this tabulation, aggregate data for those carriers are included in the other services category of toll private line service revenues.

4/ In 1982 through 1987, some of the non-Bell companies did not provide a breakdown of their toll private line revenues. These revenues were reported as either voice-grade service revenues or other private line service revenues.

5/ Wide area toll service (WATS) began in 1961. During the 1961-75 period, some of the non-Bell companies included WATS revenues in their message toll service revenues. The WATS figures for 1961-65 include reve- nues for wide area data service, which was offered on a limited developmental basis during that period.

6/ For 1961 through 1980, includes Telpak.

7/ Beginning in 1961, includes earth station revenues.

Expenses 1/ The plant specific operations expense accounts are used to record the expenses associated with particular kinds of telecommunications plant. For details, see Table 2.8.

Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

Notes to Tables 4.1 through 4.9 -- Continued

Earnings

1/ Net operating income for 1950-87 is after the addition and subtraction of rents from and for the lease of operating property from net operating revenues. Beginning in 1988, these rents are included in operating revenues and expenses.

2/ Beginning in 1970, net income is after extraordinary and delayed items. In earlier years, these items were charged or credited to retained earnings.

3/ The significant change in nonoperating income and expense and nonoperating taxes that occurred in 1993 is primarily attributable to business restructuring and the adoption of new accounting standards.

Assets and Liabilities

1/ Includes prepaid accounts.

2/ Includes miscellaneous physical property (account 103), which is reported as nonoperating plant (account 2006) under the revised USOA.

3/ Includes other jurisdictional assets (account 1500), which were not reported before 1988.

4/ In 1983, AT&T changed the par value of its common stock from $16.67 to $1 per share.

Plant

1/ During the 1957-84 period, detailed plant account data for those carriers that reported to the Commission on a voluntary basis were not included in the SOCC tabulations. Accordingly, the number of carriers included in this table for that period differs from the number included in Tables 4.1 through 4.8.

2/ In 1999, accounts 2114, 2115, and 2116 (special purpose vehicles, garage work equipment, and other work equipment, respectively) were combined into a single new account 2114, tools and other work equipment.

3/ Includes operator systems (account 2220).

4/ Includes satellite and earth station facilities (account 2231.1).

5/ This column includes drop and block wires (account 233) for the 1950-56 period. Following the elimination of this account in 1957, drop and block wires were included in account 242.1 or 242.3, as appropriate.

6/ Account 235 was called "booths and special fittings" during the 1950-57 period. Beginning in 1957 and continuing through 1983, public telephone equipment was included in account 231, station apparatus.

7/ Account 262 includes PBX and station equipment installed for official company use. Under the new rules, such plant is included in account 2123, office equipment.

8/ Intrabuilding network cable was called "house cable" under the old rules and was included in the aerial cable account (242.1).

9/ Includes account 207, right-of-way, which was eliminated as a separate account effective Jan.1, 1960. From 1960 through 1987, right-of-way was included primarily in the appropriate outside plant account.

10/ Includes unclassified plant (reported in 1969, 1974, 1975, and 1984).

11/ Consists of organization, franchises, and patent rights.

12/ Consists of capital leases (account 2681) and leasehold improvements (account 2682).

13/ Includes telephone plant adjustment (account 100.7), an account that was not used by any of the reporting carriers after 1955. In the 1951 through 1955 reports, this adjustment was made to net plant rather than to telephone plant in service.

14/ Under the revised USOA, satellite earth stations are included in central office transmission facilities.

15/ Beginning in 1995, the distinction between short-term and long-term plant under construction was eliminated. Account 2003 now comprises total plant under construction; account 2004 was deleted.

16/ Includes goodwill (account 2007).

Source: These historical statistics were compiled from previous editions of Statistics of Communications Common Carriers. Totals may be understated because certain data pertaining to the carriers included in this table are not available.

Note: Between 1987 and 1988, there were significant changes in the definitions of many of the items in this table. With the implementation of a new Uniform System of Accounts (USOA) in 1988, as indicated in the notes to Tables 4.1 - 4.9, new categories of reporting units of physical plant and network usage were created and defined. In 1992, some of these definitions were further refined when the reporting mechanism of the carriers was changed for the filing of 1991 data. For these reasons, there may be inconsistencies in the data reported for 1984-1987 compared to what was reported for 1988, and also between 1988 and subsequent years, as the carriers were adapting to the new USOA and automated reporting requirements.

1/ For 1988-1990, miles were converted to kilometers by multiplying the number of miles by 1.6093 and rounding to the nearest whole number.

Statistics of Communications Common Carriers

Introduction to Historical Rate Table 4.11Table 4.11 presents a summary of trends in basic interstate message toll rates for the three largest interstate longdistance carriers: AT&T Communications, MCI-WorldCom, and Sprint Communications Company. The information isbased on each carrier's Tariff F.C.C No. 1, as well as AT&T's Tariff F.C.C. No. 27*, and on the rates that were ineffect on December 31 of each year. Alternative rates and discount calling plans are available from each of these carriersgiving customers better value for their long distance expenditures. The rates shown may differ slightly from the amountscharged due to rounding.

The toll rates are charges for toll telephone calls between the top 10 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) as determinedby the 1990 Census:

1) New York, NY-NJ-CT 2) Los Angeles, CA 3) Chicago, IL-IN-WI 4) San Francisco, CA 5) Philadelphia, PA-NJ-DE-MD 6) Detroit, MI 7) Boston, MA-NH 8) Washington, DC-MD-VA 9) Dallas, TX 10) Houston, TX

The toll rates are based on approximate rate distances between pairs of cities. Rate distances are airline mileages deter-mined by the "V-H System." Rate centers are designated by vertical (V) and horizontal (H) coordinates, and distances(mileages) are mathematically computed using the coordinate differences between rate centers. Rate mileages are used todeatermine the per-minute rate charged. Beginning in 1984, all three carriers restructured their tariff rate schedules so asto charge lower rates for each additional minute. Between 1989 and 1992, each of the three carriers eliminated the differ-ences between its initial-minute and additional-minute rates. Beginning in 1993, all three carriers began to restructure theirbasic business rates so as to apply to Peak (Day) and Off-Peak (Evening and Night/Weekend) periods only. Moreover, inaddition to rate-period unification, these carriers began to move toward mileage-band consolidation and basic rate simpli-ficattion shown by trends in the rate table.

Note -- The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) fixed-weight chain index reflects inflation throughout the economy, and the CPI for all items measures the impact of inflation on consumers. The CPI index of all telephone services is based on a "market basket" intended to represent the telephone related expenditures of a typical urban household. It includes both local and long distance services. The CPI index of local telephone charges is based on monthly service charges, message unit charges, leased equipment, installation, enhanced services (such as tone dialing and call waiting), taxes, subscriber line charges, and all other consumer expenditures associated with telephone services except long distance charges. In contrast, the PPI index of local residential services is based only on service charges for residential service, optional touch-tone service, and subscriber line charges. The PPI telephone indexes were revised in July 1995. Index values after July 1995 are not comparable to index values published from 1972 through July 1995.

NA - Not available.

* The CPI telephone service index was revised in December of 1997.

1/ Due to month-to-month variation in the new PPI index, PPI price levels are determined using a five-month weighted average.2/ Advance estimate.

* Toll-free (800) service was initially offered by AT&T in 1967. On May 3, 1993, procedures for routing toll-free calls were changed and 800 numbers were made "portable" so customers who switched service providers could retain their numbers. Due to the growth in toll-free numbers, a new toll-free calling code, 888, was added in March 1996 giving the ability to assign about 8 million new toll-free numbers. A third toll-free calling code, 877, was added in April 1998 and a fourth toll-free code, 866, was added in Nov. 2000.

1/ Miscellaneous numbers include those in the 800, 888, 877, and 866 service management systems maintained by Database Service Management, Inc., and categorized as reserved, assigned but not yet activated, recently disconnected, or suspended.

Source: Data for 1992 - 1996 summarized from FCC Form 431 TRS Worksheets. Data for 1992 - 1996 based primarily on FCC Form 457 Universal Service Worksheets with data from 1997 TRS Worksheets used for service providers not required to file a Universal Service Worksheet. Data for 1999 summarized from Form 499 Telecommunications Reporting Worksheets, which replaced both the Form 431 and Form 457.

Note: Some data for prior years have been revised. Detail may not add to totals due to rounding.

1/TRS filers generally reported pay telephone revenues as local service revenues, access revenues or operator toll revenues. The Universal ServiceWorksheet contains a separate category for pay telephone revenues.

2/TRS Worksheet filers generally reported special access revenues as access revenues. Using Universal Service Worksheet data as the primary sourceprimary source instead of TRS Worksheet data explains the jump in local private line revenues and the fall in access revenues shown for 1997. TRSWorksheet filers included subscriber line charges with other access charges. Universal Service Worksheet filers report subscriber line chargesin a separate category. The increase from 1997 to 1998 represents PICC charges levied by ILECs as well as $1.2 billion of PICC pass-through chargeslevied by toll carriers.

3/Significant amounts of enhanced service, billing and collection, CPE and other non-telecommunications revenues were reported in the TRS mobileand other local service categories through 1996. Universal Service Worksheet filers report these revenues in the non-telecommunications category.For prior years, the amounts of non-telecommunications revenues reported as mobile and other local revenues were estimated as 70% of the amountsTier 1 LECs reported in their ARMIS filings as miscellaneous and non-regulated revenues (currently account 5200 + account 5280) and 10% of amounts reported as mobile service revenues.

4/Charges on end-user bills identified as recovering state or federal universal service contributions are reported separately from local, wireless, andtoll revenues. Reported amounts are apportioned between local, wireless and toll service based on the proportions of local, wireless, and tollintrastate and interstate revenue by type of carrier.

Data for 1992 - 1996 based primarily on FCC Form 457 Universal Service Worksheets with data from 1997 TRS Worksheets used for service providers not required to file a Universal Service Worksheet. Data for 1999 summarized from Form 499 Telecommunications Reporting Worksheets, which replaced both the Form 431 and Form 457.

* Filers are asked to select a service provider category that best describes their operations. The choices have changed over the years. For example,most satellite service providers identified themselves as other toll carriers in their 1997 TRS worksheets because there was no separate categoryfor satellite service providers.

1/Significant amounts of enhanced service, billing and collection, customer premises equipment (CPE) and other non-telecommunications revenueswere reported on TRS Worksheets by incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and wireless carriers through 1996. Universal ServiceWorksheet filers report these revenues in the non-telecommunications category. For prior years, the amounts of non-telecommunications category.For prior years, the amounts of non-telecommunications revenues reported as mobile and other local revenues were estimated as 70% of theamounts that Tier 1 ILECs reported in their ARMIS filings as miscellaneous and nonregulated revenues (currently account 5200 + account 5280)and 10% of amounts reported as mobile service revenues.

2/Other adjustments include some amounts withheld to preserve confidentiality and revisions made after the initial publication of the data.
