§ 51.213   Toll dialing parity implementation plans.

   (a) A LEC must file a plan for providing intraLATA toll dialing parity
   throughout each state in which it offers telephone exchange service. A LEC
   cannot  offer  intraLATA  toll dialing parity within a state until the
   implementation plan has been approved by the appropriate state commission or
   the Commission.

   (b) A LEC's implementation plan must include:

   (1) A proposal that explains how the LEC will offer intraLATA toll dialing
   parity for each exchange that the LEC operates in the state, in accordance
   with  the provisions of this section, and a proposed time schedule for
   implementation; and

   (2) A proposal for timely notification of its subscribers and the methods it
   proposes to use to enable subscribers to affirmatively select an intraLATA
   toll service provider.

   (3) A LEC that is not a BOC also shall identify the LATA with which it will
   associate for the purposes of providing intraLATA and interLATA toll dialing
   parity under this subpart.
