Pay Telephone Reclassification and Compensation Provisions of the Telecommunications Act of 1996

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted a new rule to reclassify payphone services and provide compensation to local exchange carriers (LECs) for these services. The new rule, which was implemented on October 7, 1996, modifies the requirements for LECs to remove unregulated payphone costs from their carrier common line charge and to reflect multiline subscriber line charges on payphone lines.
