13. Applicability of Default Carriers' Tariff Provisions
and Commission Requirements during Mass Migrations
Pursuant to the Guidelines, AT&T California's tariffed credit and collection procedures will apply to customers transferred to it as part of the mass migration process. AT&T California's other tariff provisions will apply when they do not conflict with these Guidelines and FCC requirements.
General Order (GO) 133-B exception reporting requires a carrier to file all quarterly reports addressing failure to meet service quality measures due to a mass migration 30 days after the quarter in which the migrations are completed. These failures are not subject to penalties.
Operations Support Systems (OSS) performance measurement reports must also be filed when due, but AT&T California may request relief from incentive payments should the mass migration process associated with this proceeding result in a failure to meet applicable performance measures.9
Applicant seeks to voluntarily relinquish its designation as a COLR and an ETC in the arranged carrier's GSA. In October 2004, the Commission granted Applicant COLR status in the service territories of AT&T California and Verizon.10 D.96-10-066 permits a designated COLR to opt out of its obligations in a GSA, unless it is the only carrier remaining in the GSA. Applicant is not the only COLR operating in AT&T California's GSA. In May 2005, the Commission granted Applicant ETC status in AT&T California's and Verizon's service areas so that Application could receive universal service support.11 To facilitate Applicant's withdrawal of service and the efficient transition of its remaining customers, we shall grant Applicant's request to relinquish both its COLR status and ETC status.
9 D.02-03-023 adopted an OSS performance incentives plan to provide incentives for AT&T California to give CLECs equitable access to its OSS infrastructure. The plan measures, evaluates, and imposes monetary charges on AT&T California for OSS performance that could inhibit competition by disadvantaging the CLECs.
