Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2006 
We present here summary statistics of the latest data on local telephone service competition in the 
United States as reported in the Commission’s local competition and broadband data gathering 
program (FCC Form 477).1 The summary statistics provide a snapshot of local telephone service 
competition based on switched access lines in service and state-specific mobile telephony service 
subscribers as of December 31, 2006.2 
Twice a year, all incumbent local exchanges carriers (incumbent LECs) and competitive local 
exchange carriers (CLECs) are required to report to the Commission basic information about their 
local telephone service, and all facilities-based mobile telephony providers are required to provide 
information about their subscribers. Prior to June 2005, the FCC collected data from carriers with 
at least 10,000 switched access lines, or mobile telephony subscribers, in service in a particular 
state. Small carriers, many of whom serve rural areas with relatively small populations, were 
therefore underrepresented in the earlier data.3 With the inclusion of these carriers, the number of 
incumbent LEC and CLEC holding companies and unaffiliated carriers reporting local telephone 
service information as of December 31, 2005 tripled, and the number of reporting facilities-based 
mobile telephony providers doubled.4 
Based on the latest information now available, we summarize the following observations: 
· End-user customers obtained local telephone service by utilizing approximately 138.8 million 
incumbent LEC switched access lines, 28.7 million CLEC switched access lines, and 229.6 
million mobile telephony service subscriptions at the end of December 2006.5 See Tables 1 
and 14. 
1 Local Competition and Broadband Reporting, CC Docket No. 99-301, Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd 7717 
(2000); Local Telephone Competition and Broadband Reporting, WC Docket No. 04-141, Report and Order, 19 
FCC Rcd 22340 (2004). During this data gathering program, qualifying providers file FCC Form 477 each year on 
March 1 (reporting data for the preceding December 31) and September 1 (reporting data for June 30 of the same 
year). An updated FCC Form 477, and instructions for that particular form, for each specific round of the data 
collection may be downloaded from the FCC Forms website at www.fcc.gov/formpage.html. 
2 Statistical summaries of the earlier Form 477 data collections appeared in previous releases of the Local 
Telephone Competition report, available at www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/comp.html. 
3 As of December 31, 2005, filers with fewer than 10,000 switched access lines in a state (including entities that 
previously filed on a voluntary basis) reported about 4.5 million lines (about 2.0 million incumbent LEC lines and 
about 2.5 million CLEC lines). By contrast, the data filed for December 2004 included about 0.6 million lines filed 
on a voluntary basis (about 0.2 million incumbent LEC lines and about 0.4 million CLEC lines). Mobile telephony 
service providers with fewer than 10,000 subscribers in a state reported about 364,000 subscribers as of December 
31, 2005. Such filers reported (on a voluntary basis) about 69,000 subscribers a year earlier. 
4 The nationwide number of CLEC holding companies and unaffiliated entities reporting local telephone service 
information increased from 149 to 382, and the number of incumbent LEC entities increased from 190 to 807. See 
Tables 3 and 4. The number of entities reporting mobile telephony subscribers increased from 76 to 155. 
5 For this report, end-user switched access lines reported for the incumbent LEC operations of certain entities (i.e., 
AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc.) have been increased to reflect merger with a CLEC – to the extent 
(continued….)

2 
· CLECs reported 28.7 million (or 17.1%) of the approximately 167.5 million nationwide enduser 
switched access lines in service at the end of December 2006, compared to 29.8 million 
(or 17.3%) of the 172.1 million lines reported six months earlier. See Table 1. 
· About 43% of switched access lines in service to CLEC end users served residential 
customers at the end of December 2006, whereas about 64% of switched access lines in 
service to incumbent LEC end users served residential customers. See Table 2. 
· CLECs reported providing 39% of their end-user switched access lines over their own local 
loop facilities,6 41% by using unbundled network elements (UNEs) they leased from other 
carriers, and 20% through resale arrangements with unaffiliated carriers.7 See Table 3. 
· Incumbent LECs reported providing about 16% fewer UNE loops with switching (referred to 
as the UNE-Platform) to unaffiliated carriers at the end of December 2006 than they reported 
six months earlier (7.1 million compared to 8.4 million) and about the same number of UNE 
loops without switching (4.4 million). See Table 4. 
· About 6.8 million end-user switched access lines were provided by CLECs over coaxial cable 
connections. These lines represent about 61% of the 11.2 million end-user switched access 
lines that CLECs reported providing over their own local loop facilities, about 24% of all 
end-user switched access lines that CLECs reported, about 56% of CLEC lines to residential 
end users, about 4% of total end-user switched access lines, and about 7% of total residential 
switched access lines. See Tables 2, 3, and 5. 
· Incumbent LECs were the presubscribed interstate long distance carrier for 58% of the 
switched access lines they provided to end users, while CLECs were the interstate long 
distance carrier for 76% of their switched access lines. See Table 6. 
(Continued from previous page) 
the CLEC operated in the incumbent LEC’s service territory – and lines reported for the CLEC operations of these 
entities have been decreased by the same amount. Such adjustments are necessary when the merged entity treats 
the former CLEC operations as a separate business unit, and files a separate Form 477 for that business unit. SBC 
Communications, Inc. (SBC) and AT&T Corp. merged to form AT&T Inc. in November 2005, and AT&T Inc. 
merged with BellSouth on December 29, 2006. Verizon Communications Inc. and MCI, Inc. merged in January 
2006. 
6 Form 477 filers report that end-user switched access lines are provided over their own local loop facilities when 
the filer (including affiliates) owns the local loop to the end user’s premises. Therefore, unbundled network 
elements (UNEs) or services for resale that a CLEC acquires from an incumbent LEC become own-facilities lines, 
for purposes of Form 477, if the two entities merge. As previously noted, such lines are treated as incumbent LEC 
lines in this report, rather than as CLEC lines. 
7 CLEC “resale” lines should include lines that the CLEC provides by using special access lines or other facilities 
that it obtains from unaffiliated ILECs or CLECs as tariffed services or under commercial agreements. 

• 
The Commission’s data collection program collates information about CLEC local 
telephone service lines (and the CLEC share of total local telephone service lines) in 
individual states. Relatively large numbers of CLEC lines are associated with the more 
populous states.8 With respect to the calculated CLEC share of switched access lines in 
service, however, some less populous states, such as Nebraska, New Hampshire, North 
Dakota, Rhode Island, and South Dakota had larger CLEC shares than some more populous 
states, such as California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, and Ohio. See Tables 7 - 10.9 
• 
Among the 50 states, only Alaska and Hawaii had fewer than 10 reporting CLECs. See 
Table 13. 
• 
Mobile telephony service providers reported 229.6 million subscribers at the end of 
December 2006, which is 26 million, or 13%, more than a year earlier. About 7% of these 
subscribers were billed by mobile telephony service resellers.10 See Table 14. 
• 
At least one CLEC was serving customers in 82% of the nation’s Zip Codes at the end of 
December 2006. About 98% of United States households resided in those Zip Codes. 
Moreover, multiple carriers reported providing local telephone service in the major 
population centers of the country. See Table 15 - 17, and the map that follows Table 19. 
As other information from FCC Form 477 becomes available, it will be routinely posted on the 
Commission’s Internet site. We invite users of the information presented in this statistical 
summary to provide suggestions for improved data collection and analysis by: 

• 
Using the attached customer response form, 
• 
E-mailing comments to James.Eisner@fcc.gov, 
• 
Calling the Industry Analysis and Technology Division of the Wireline Competition Bureau 
at (202) 418-0940, or 
• 
Participating in any formal proceedings undertaken by the Commission to solicit comments 
for improvement of FCC Form 477. 
8 The largest numbers of CLEC lines are reported for California (3.0 million lines), New York (2.9 million lines), 
and Texas (2.0 million lines), the first, third, and second most populous states, respectively. 

9 CLEC shares appearing in Table 8 are based on CLEC and ILEC lines in Tables 9 and 10. 

10 The mobile “resale” percentage should not include any subscribers that the facilities-based provider serves on a 
pre-paid basis. For reporting purposes, a “facilities-based” mobile telephony service provider serves subscribers 
using spectrum licenses that it has obtained or manages.
