Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION

Chapter:

TELEPHONE COMPANIES

Overview

RULE:

25-4.034	Network Access Tariffs
25-4.0341	Filing of Service Schedules

PURPOSE:

Rule 25-4.034 would be amended and Rule 25-4.0341 would be added to comply with recent changes to section 364.04(1), FS. Rule 25-4.034 would require local exchange telecommunications companies to maintain tariffs on file with the Commission setting forth all intrastate rates, terms and conditions for network access services pursuant to section 364.163, FS, and would otherwise simplify requirements when schedules or tariffs are published with the Commission. Rule 25-4.0341 would offer limited guidance to telecommunications companies choosing to file service schedules with the Commission.
Docket No. 120265-TP

SUMMARY:

Rule 25-4.034 currently requires local exchange telecommunications companies to maintain tariffs on file with the Commission setting forth all rates and charges for customer service. Except with respect to network access services, for which tariffs are required to be filed pursuant to section 364.163, FS, section 364.04(1), FS, now permits telecommunications companies the option of filing published service schedules either with the Commission or through other reasonably publicly accessible means, including on a website, and provides that the Commission shall have no jurisdiction over the content or form or format of such published schedules. The proposed amendment of Rule 25-4.034 and adoption of Rule 25-4.0341 implement these statutory changes.
