When the Physical POI is at the Sprint Tandem Switch, CLEC shall pay a charge for Tandem Switching, common transport to the end office and end-office termination. 59.2.2.3. Charges billed to Sprint by CLEC for the transport and termination of Local Telecommunications Traffic will be equal to those that Sprint assesses the CLEC for the same services. Where CLEC is interconnected at a Sprint tandem and Sprint delivers its traffic to CLEC directly from an end office, Sprint shall pay CLEC end office termination. Where CLEC is interconnected at a Sprint tandem and Sprint delivers its traffic to CLEC from the tandem and the CLEC switch serves a geographical area greater than or equal to the area served by the Sprint tandem, Sprint shall pay CLEC for Tandem Switching, common transport, and end-office termination. If the CLEC switch serves a geographical area less than the area served by the Sprint tandem, Sprint shall pay CLEC end-office termination.
