transport charge -- Distance sensitive rates. A flat-rated direct-trunked transport charge expressed in dollars and cents per unit of capacity is assessed on all interexchange carriers and other persons that use a carrier's carrier's direct-trunked facilities. Direct-trunked transport charges are based on the interoffice charges for equivalent voice grade, DS1, and DS3 special access services. Direct-trunked transport charges may be distance sensitive. Mileage is measured as airline mileage between customer-designated points. If the carrier's carrier employs distance sensitive rates, a distance sensitive component is assessed for use of the transmission facilities, including intermediate transmission circuit equipment, between end points of the circuit and a nondistance sensitive component is assessed for use of the circuit equipment at the ends of the transmission links.
