 Universal Service Report & Order: Section 13
Beginning on January 1, 1999, the Commission will modify universal service assessments to fund 25 percent of the difference between cost of service defined by the applicable forward-looking economic cost method less the national benchmark, through a percentage contribution on interstate end-user telecommunications revenues.
Because state universal service mechanisms must be consistent and must not conflict with the federal mechanisms, it is reasonable to conclude that section 254 grants the Commission the primary responsibility and authority to ensure that universal service mechanisms are "specific, predictable, and sufficient" to meet the statutory principle of "just, reasonable, and affordable rates."
We find that carriers that provide only international telecommunications services are not required to contribute to universal service support mechanisms because they are not "telecommunications carriers that provide interstate telecommunications services." We recognize that by this decision, some providers of international services will be treated differently from others.
