§ 69.5   Persons to be assessed.

   (a) End user charges shall be computed and assessed upon public end users,
   and upon providers of public telephones, as defined in this subpart, and as
   provided in subpart B of this part.

   (b)  Carrier's carrier charges shall be computed and assessed upon all
   interexchange carriers that use local exchange switching facilities for the
   provision of interstate or foreign telecommunications services.

   (c) Special access surcharges shall be assessed upon users of exchange
   facilities that interconnect these facilities with means of interstate or
   foreign telecommunications to the extent that carrier's carrier charges are
   not assessed upon such interconnected usage. As an interim measure pending
   the development of techniques accurately to measure such interconnected use
   and to assess such charges on a reasonable and non-discriminatory basis,
   telephone companies shall assess special access surcharges upon the closed
   ends of private line services and WATS services pursuant to the provisions
   of § 69.115 of this part.
