Implementation of the Rate Integration Requirement of the Communications Act

By this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Notice), the Commission seeks further comment on the application of rate integration to interstate, interexchange services offered by commercial mobile radio service (CMRS) providers. Specifically, the Commission invites interested parties to comment on how rate integration should be applied to wide-area calling plans, services offered by affiliates, plans that assess local airtime or roaming charges in addition to separate long- distance charges for interstate, interexchange services, and whether cellular and PCS service rates should be integrated.
