Abstract
The Common Carrier Bureau adopted an Order (``Order''), which clarifies certain requirements set forth in the Per-phone Compensation Waiver Order. The Order clarifies the following: the data to be used for the payment of payphone compensation for the fourth quarter of 1997 and first quarter of 1998 for payphones that are not capable of providing payphone-specific coding digits; the method for allocating among payors the payphone compensation requirements for payphones served by non-equal access switches; and the eligibility of payphones on automatic number identification (``ANI'') lists.
