BellSouth will pay Carrier for terminating its Local Traffic on the Carrier’s network the local interconnection rates as set forth in Attachment B-1. Charges for terminating traffic will be in accumulated conversation minutes, whole and partial, measured from receipt of answer supervision to receipt of disconnect supervision and rounded up to the next whole minute at the close of the billing period. If Carrier is unable to measure traffic in this manner, the charges from Carrier for traffic terminating to Carrier will be based upon actual usage determined by multiplying the actual number of pages per month times the facilities percentage referenced in Section V.
