## Abstract

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) addresses the rules regarding per-call compensation for payphone calls to ensure that payphone service providers (PSPs) are fairly compensated for all completed, coinless calls made from payphones. The Commission addresses the key issues raised in the petitions for declaratory ruling, reconsideration and/or clarification, and clarifies, on its own motion, certain aspects of the per-call compensation rules.
