This is the third of our reports about local telephone service in the United States that includes comprehensive information about subscribership to interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (“interconnected VoIP”) service as well as comprehensive information about the more traditional telephone service lines. 1,2 The report summarizes data collected by FCC Form 477 as of December 31, 2009. We include certain ZIP Code-based information in the report. 3 At present, there is no Form 477 requirement to report any telephone service information at the census tract level of detail. 4 We also update summary statistics for the mobile telephony subscribership information collected by Form 477. 5 1 The first such comprehensive report, which was released in June 2010, is available at http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/iatd/comp.html. It contains more extensive citations for the Commission’s adoption, in 2008, of improvements to the FCC Form 477 data collection program, which made reporting mandatory for providers of retail interconnected VoIP services as well as for local exchange carriers and facilities-based providers of mobile telephony service. Qualifying entities 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). The first data collected on Form 477 were for December 31, 1999. Effective with the filing of data as of December 31, 2008, Form 477 is a Web-based electronic filing system. Information about the filing system and the Form 477 program generally is available at http://www.fcc.gov/form477/. 2 The FCC’s rules (at 47 C.F.R. § 9.3) state: An interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service is a service that: (1) Enables real-time, two-way voice communications; (2) Requires a broadband connection from the user’s location; (3) Requires Internet protocol-compatible customer premises equipment (CPE); and (4) Permits users generally to receive calls that originate on the public switched telephone network and to terminate calls to the public switched telephone network. We note that the current interpretation of element (4) of the definition excludes the VoIP services that Skype offers in the United States, and subscribers to those services are not reported on Form 477. Prior to the December 2008 data, companies such as Vonage that solely provide interconnected VoIP service did not file Form 477. Telephone companies and cable companies that provided local exchange telephone service were required to file Form 477 but were not required to report interconnected VoIP subscriptions. However, some of these companies chose to include interconnected VoIP subscriptions in the number of retail (end-user) switched access lines that they reported. 3 Wireline service providers report whether they have at least one residential or business customer in each ZIP Code, using either switched access or interconnected VoIP. Because providers may not offer service across an entire ZIP Code and because different providers may target different customer segments in areas where they provide service, we cannot conclude that the number of providers identified as delivering wireline service within a ZIP Code represents the number of options available to any specific customer within that ZIP Code. We further note that these data on the number of providers in a ZIP Code do not indicate whether a particular provider is offering service solely over its own last-mile facilities or is using the facilities of another carrier or entity. 4 This contrasts with the census tract-based broadband reporting requirements the Commission adopted in 2008, at which time the Commission sought comment about requiring local exchange carriers and interconnected VoIP service providers to report the number of voice telephone service connections, and the percentage of these that are residential, at the 5-digit ZIP Code or census tract level of detail. See Development of Nationwide Broadband Data to Evaluate Reasonable and Timely Deployment of Advanced Services to All Americans, Improvement of Wireless Broadband Subscribership Data, and Development of Data on Interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Subscribership, WC Docket No. 07-38, Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 23 FCC Rcd 9691 (2008) at 9708, para. 33. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 2 Explanation of terminology used in this report. • We use “Non-ILEC” to refer to any service provider who does not have incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) regulatory status, including, for example, competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), including both those who provide service over their own facilities and those who employ ILEC facilities or services, cable companies without CLEC regulatory status who provide interconnected VoIP service, and over-the-top (OTT) interconnected VoIP providers who neither own nor operate telecommunications facilities. • All “VoIP subscriptions” discussed in this report are interconnected VoIP subscriptions. • When referring specifically to ILECs, we use the term “total lines” to mean the sum of ILEC- reported retail (end-user) switched access lines, ILEC interconnected VoIP subscriptions, and ILEC wholesale switched access lines and unbundled network elements (UNEs) provided to CLECs. • We specify “RBOC” and “Other ILEC” when we wish to distinguish between information reported by the Regional Bell Operating Companies (that is, AT&T, Qwest, and Verizon) operating in their respective ILEC service areas and information reported by all other ILECs as a group. Data interpretation. • Lines from CLECs who have ILEC affiliates are handled at the state level in one of several ways. We place the lines into the non-ILEC category if the affiliate is an ILEC other than AT&T or Verizon. Lines from CLEC affiliates of AT&T and Verizon are allocated between the ILEC and non-ILEC categories based on staff estimates if the CLEC operates in the AT&T or Verizon ILEC service area in the state, respectively. • When counting service providers who have any retail customers in a particular geography (for example, a state or a ZIP Code), we count a holding company or common-control entity no more than once in any specified sub-category of total providers. • Nationwide counts of providers are unique counts for any specified sub-category of total providers (for example, all non-ILECs or all interconnected VoIP providers); an entity operating in multiple states is counted only once. Wireline retail local telephone service. Retail local telephone service customers are served by two wireline technologies – “end-user” switched access lines and interconnected VoIP “subscriptions.” The Form 477 program counts lines and subscriptions as the maximum number of voice calls that can be active at one time from the retail customer’s location (for example, a business customer’s premises) under the service plan that the end user has purchased from a local exchange carrier or interconnected VoIP service retailer. 6 (Continued from previous page) 5 The presentation of mobile wireless telephone subscriber counts in this report does not constitute, or imply, Commission analysis of the extent to which wireline and mobile wireless telephone services are demand substitutes or complements in general or in any particular situation. In the Form 477 program, commercial mobile radio service (CMRS) carriers who own or operate wireless networks report both their retail telephone service customers and the retail customers of mobile wireless telephone service resellers. 6 Form 477 data may not count all VoIP phone connections to Internet Protocol Private Branch Exchange (IP PBX) equipment that is owned by business end users because of the variety of ways the IP PBX may connect to the public switched telephone network. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 3 • In December 2009, there were 127 million end-user switched access lines in service and 26 million interconnected VoIP subscriptions in the United States, or 153 million wireline retail local telephone service connections in total. See Figure 1. • Between December 2008 and December 2009 – the first full year of mandatory interconnected VoIP reporting – interconnected VoIP subscriptions increased by 22% (from 21 million to 26 million) and retail switched access lines decreased by 10% (from 141 million to 127 million). The combined effect was an annual decrease of 6% in wireline retail local telephone service connections (from 162 million to 153 million). See Figure 1.

See Figure 2. • Cross-classified by technology and customer type, the 153 million wireline retail local telephone service connections in December 2009 were: 45% residential switched access lines, 38% business switched access lines, 15% residential interconnected VoIP subscriptions, and 2% business interconnected VoIP subscriptions.

The retailers of wireline local telephone service include a variety of entities that are subject to different federal communications regulation. The Form 477 program – and this report – distinguishes ILEC operations from all other operations. Generally, ILEC operations are more closely regulated than non-ILEC operations because they operated as local monopolies for many years. After the Telecommunications Act of 1996 became law, some ILECs established CLEC affiliates (usually within a holding company or common-control structure) that compete against other ILECs. Also, some ILECs have acquired CLECs. In particular, RBOCs AT&T and Verizon have acquired major CLECs that operated within their ILEC service areas and elsewhere. 7 With this overview as background, we report: 7 Qwest is the third of the three surviving RBOCs. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 5 • Cross-classified by customer type (residential or business) and the service retailer’s regulatory status (ILEC or non-ILEC), the 153 million wireline retail local telephone service connections (including both switched access lines and interconnected VoIP subscriptions) in December 2009 were: 42% ILEC residential service, 28% ILEC business service, 17% non-ILEC residential service, and 13% non-ILEC business service.

Form 477 identifies three types of information about retail interconnected VoIP service. • First, interconnected VoIP service retailers distinguish between the interconnected VoIP subscriptions they sell to their broadband Internet access service customers (“broadband bundle” subscriptions, in this report) 8 and all the other interconnected VoIP subscriptions that they sell (“standalone” subscriptions). 9 • Second, filers report whether or not interconnected VoIP subscriptions include, as a service feature, the capability to use the service over any broadband connection to which the customer has access, for example, at a hotel or vacation residence (“nomadic” functionality). • Third, filers identify the different broadband technologies (for example, cable modem Internet access service) in the broadband bundle. The Form 477 data cross-classify the first two of these three sets of information. See Figure 5. 8 We note that the interconnected VoIP service “broadband bundles” reported on Form 477 do not need to be sold together for a single price, although they may be. The interconnected VoIP service and Internet access service could be marketed and billed by separate retailers, who are affiliated. The retailer of the Internet access service could either own the connection that delivers the service or be reselling Internet access service. 9 The “standalone” service might be OTT interconnected VoIP. It also might be interconnected VoIP sold by a cable system operator as an individual service or in combination with cable TV service.

The “Other Wireline” component of “DSL or Other Wireline” includes other ways of using telephone company local loops to deliver Internet access services, for example, over “T-1” circuits or Ethernet over copper. “FTTP” is fiber to the premises – optical fiber taken all the way to the end user. “Cable modem” is the cable TV industry’s mass-market Internet access service, delivered to the end user over a coaxial cable. Terrestrial fixed wireless service makes a point-to-point connection between the service provider’s antenna and an antenna installed at the end user’s premises. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 10 Switched access lines. ILECs as a group predominantly deliver retail switched access lines over copper local loops. This appears also to be the case for those non-ILECs who report retail switched access lines. See Figure 7.

ILECs typically own the communications facilities over which they provide retail services. By contrast, CLECs use a range of methods: equipping ILEC UNE loops (“UNE-L”) as CLEC switched access lines, 11 reselling services (for example, reselling ILEC 11 CLECs (as opposed to non-ILECs more generally) have certain regulatory rights to obtain ILEC local loops at cost-based UNE rates, which the CLEC may use to provide retail switched access lines or retail broadband Internet access connections. See C.F.R. § 51.307. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 11 switched access lines obtained at wholesale rates or reselling ILEC lines obtained under commercial agreements that replaced the UNE-Platform (“UNE-P”)), equipping leased ILEC special access circuits as switched access lines, and equipping local loops that the CLEC owns. • At year-end 2009, CLECs reported using several methods to provide their 21 million retail switched access lines. They reported providing 33% of lines (or about 7.1 million lines) by reselling ILEC wholesale or retail services. They reported providing 38% of lines (or about 8.2 million lines) over ILEC facilities leased at regulated, cost-based rates (that is, as unbundled network elements, or UNEs). And they provided the remaining 28% of lines (or about 6.0 million lines) over local loops that they owned. However, the information about wholesale relationships differs as reported by CLECs and by ILECs, as discussed in Figure 8. Figure 8 Wholesale Relationships as Reported Respectively by CLECs and ILECs as of December 31, 2009 (In Thousands) CLEC ILEC Difference Retail Switched Access Lines provisioned over ILEC Services (reported by CLECs) Wholesale Switched Access Lines and UNEs provided to CLECs (reported by ILECs) Resold ILEC services 1 7,101 2,993 4,108 UNE-P 2 1,446 2,396 (949) UNE-L 3 6,752 3,668 3,084 Total ILEC UNEs 8,199 6,063 2,135 Total ILEC services 15,299 9,056 6,243 Figures may not add to totals due to rounding. 1 Resold ILEC services include switched access lines made available to CLECs at wholesale rates, resold Centrex, Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), or other ILEC services, ILEC special access circuits channelized to provide CLEC retail switched access lines, and ILEC switched access lines provided to CLECs under commercial agreements that replaced UNE-P. (See note 2, below.) Filers are instructed to count the number of voice-grade channels the retail customer purchased, not the theoretical capacity of the circuit over which the service was delivered. ILECs generally do not know (and do not report) which ILEC leased special access circuits or other high-capacity circuits are being used to provide CLEC retail switched access lines (which the CLECs do report). 2 UNE-P was the combination of ILEC loop UNE, switching UNE, and transport UNE. The Commission directed CLECs to migrate their retail customers served by UNE-P to an alternative arrangement within 12 months of the effective data of the Triennial Review Remand Order, that is, by March 11, 2006. See C.F.R. § 51.319(d)(2)(ii). 3 ILECs report the number of UNE-L they provide to CLECs but do not convert any high-capacity UNE-L, such as DS1 UNE loops, into voice-grade equivalents. By contrast, CLECs report the number of switched access lines their retail customers purchase which the CLEC provisioned over UNE-L obtained from ILECs. Note, however, that a CLEC might use UNE-L only to provide broadband Internet access connections. U.S. Federal Communications Commission Local Telephone Competition: Status as of December 31, 2009 12 Remainder of the report. The remainder of the report consists of tables and charts that update and expand data presented in earlier reports in this series. We present national data first, followed by state- specific data and, finally, summary statistics of the presence of competitors to the incumbent wireline local telephone service providers in individual ZIP Codes. 12 * * * * We invite users of this information to provide suggestions for improved analysis of data presented in this report by using the attached customer response form or by e-mailing comments to IATDreports@fcc.gov for subject: December 2009 local telephone data. We encourage users of this information to provide suggestions for improved data collection by participating in any formal proceedings undertaken by the Commission to solicit comments for improvement of FCC Form 477. 12 In any individual ZIP Code, the competitors to ILECs may be CLECs or interconnected VoIP providers who are not affiliated with the ILEC, or ILECs, who serve end users in that ZIP Code. Appropriate interpretation of the ZIP Code-based information is discussed in n. 3, above.

Date Total Non-ILEC Share (In Millions) Table 1 End-User Switched Access Lines and VoIP Subscriptions 1 End-User Switched Access Lines and VoIP Subscriptions Chart 1 (In Thousands) 1 Incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs) with at least 10,000 switched access lines in service in a state were required to report through December 2004. Thereafter, all were required to report. Mandatory reporting by interconnected VoIP service providers started in December 2008. Previously, individual ILECs and CLECs included VoIP subscribers in reported switched access lines to a varying and largely unknown degree. Interconnected VoIP is distinguished from VoIP service more generally by permitting users to receive calls that originate on the public switched telephone network and to terminate calls to the public switched telephone network. See 47 C.F.R. § 9.3. Form 477 counts both switched access lines and interconnected VoIP subscriptions as the maximum number of calls that may be active, simultaneously, from the end user’s location under the purchased service plan.

They were counted with residential lines through December 2004 and with business lines thereafter. This change caused a one-time drop in the percentages of ILEC and CLEC lines reported as residential. The December 2008 data are the first for which comprehensive reporting of interconnected VoIP subscribers was required. See footnote 1, Table 1. Some data for December 2008 and June 2009 have been revised.
