If AT&T is providing an interstate telecommunications service and, therefore, contributing to the federal USF on revenues for these telecommunications services, then the UCC will be applied. Effective July, 2008, AT&T will apply the UCC to the access line component included with Frame Relay to ATM Service Interworking (including IP-enabled Frame Relay and ATM), INCS, and Enhanced VPN Services. This is done to allow AT&T to recover the USF contribution associated with the telecommunications services component of these enhanced services.
