" , * *,,6$"  S-If these provisional rates are found at the conclusion of the investigation initiated by the Access  S-Charge Reform Tariffs Suspension Order to be below a just and reasonable level, we may allow carriers prospectively to charge higher rates for some elements to reflect the fact that they were charging less than would have been permitted for those elements during the pendency of the investigation. If these provisional rates are found at the conclusion of the investigation initiated by the  S-Access Charge Reform Tariffs Suspension Order to be above those permitted by our rules, and thus unreasonably high, we may require the LECs to make refunds to their customers. It is also possible that, in some cases in which the same customer has paid both charges that were found to be too high and charges that were found to be too low, refunds could be offset by amounts allowed for recoupment.
