NECA's Tariff FCC No.4 is your company's legal billing authority for your interstate access service charges. Tariff No. 4 is the database that carriers reference for the ordering, billing, and provisioning of interstate access services in North America. Tariff No. 4 contains information on telecommunications providers that describes the location and technical capabilities of the wire centers which provide interstate access. It also contains interconnection information that supports the ordering, billing, and provisioning of interstate access services. The tariff is essentially composed of three sections:

Wire Center (Vertical and Horizontal Coordinates)
Billing Percent (BP)
Subtending Wire Center

Tariff No. 4 contains the basis for determining the distance of any particular segment of interstate access transmission for the purposes of calculating a bill for interstate access services provided to an access customer. It is also useful for determining billing ratios when services are jointly provided by more than one carrier. Tariff No. 4 is a database of information describing the location and technical capabilities of EC wire centers from which interstate access service is provided, as well as information on billing agreements. Actual rates, terms and conditions for access services are contained in a participant's Interstate Access Tariff(s) or in contracts.
