LDCs must handle all customer calls between two LATAs.  The BOCs are
not permitted to do this (exception: "corporate" calls between two BOC
offices in different LATAs can be handled by the BOC itself).

LDCs MAY handle intra-LATA calls at the discretion of the state's
regulatory agency.  In some states this is allowed; in some it is not.
