Much like a CPA’s busy tax season, the telecommunication industry’s “access filing season” is upon us. And CCMI is actively monitoring the volume of filings and collecting transmittal and tariff updates in our online rate document library.

This year, on July 1, 2013, LECs must file tariffs to bring terminating intrastate rates to parity with interstate rates, despite the pending court challenge to the FCC’s Report and Order (FCC Docket 10-90).

CCMI tracked more than 2,000 intrastate access filings in 2012, and we are expecting well over 3,000 transmittal and tariff updates this year. 

With such an overwhelming amount of filings expected, it’s critical that you stay up to date with these important rate changes. And to help you out, we’ll be posting a weekly Intrastate Access Filing Report. We’ll report on the number of tariffs filed by state, as well as the carriers with the most filing activity (see the graphs below).

This data is stored in TelView, CCMI’s online rate document library. If you’re already a TelView customer, click here to access the detailed Intrastate Access Filing Report (login required).
