RESOLUTION T-16616. VOLUNTARY REVOCATION OF CERTIFICATES OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY OF 20 TELECOMMUNICATIONS CARRIERS.

_________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY

This resolution revokes, at the request of the companies, the Non-Dominant Interexchange Carrier (NDIEC), Radio Telephone Utility, and Competitive Local Carrier Certificates of Public Conveniences and Necessity (CPCNs) held by the 20 companies listed in the Discussion Section.

BACKGROUND

The 20 companies listed in the Discussion section below were certificated by the Commission in the specified markets. All required tariffs were filed.

Each company has stated in either a letter to the Commission or an Advice Letter that it no longer has any customers and that it requests revocation of its CPCN.

DISCUSSION

The companies that would be revoked by this resolution are the following:

	Utility Type	CPCN#	Company Name
1.	RTU	2148	Communications West
2.	IEC	5213	Comtel Computer Corp.
3.	IEC	5319	Hertz Technologies
4.	IEC	5371	GST Pacific Lightwave
5.	IEC, CLC	5448	LDM Systems, Inc.
6.	IEC	5469	GST Telecom California
7.	IEC	5679	Viatel, Inc.
8.	IEC	5739	CapRock Telecommunications
9.	IEC	5802	Vista International
10.	IEC	6003	OmniCall, Inc.
11.	IEC	6032	Japan Telecom America
12.	CLC	6095	@Link Networks, Inc.
13.	CLC	6236	2nd Century Comms.
14.	IEC, CLC	6270	OnSite Access Local
15.	IEC	6291	Hotel Connect Management
16.	CLC	6345	Preferred Network
17.	IEC, CLC	6374	Urban Media of California
18.	IEC, CLC	6406	BBG Communications
19.	CLC	6408	LightBonding.com
20.	IEC	6335	Broadmedia, Inc.

Each of the above companies has sent either a letter or an Advice Letter to the Commission requesting revocation. There is no reason to deny this request since these companies report that they have no customers and there are about 1,000 long distance, 300 competitive local, and 250 wireless companies authorized to do business in these markets.

The Telecommunications Division (TD) recommends that these requests for revocation be granted and that the companies' Utility Identification Numbers be cancelled. Our records show that all surcharges have been paid.

This is an uncontested matter in which the resolution grants the relief requested. Accordingly, pursuant to PU Code Section 311 (g)(2), the 30-day period for public review and comment is being waived.

FINDINGS

1. The companies on the above list were certificated by the Commission in the indicated markets.

2. The companies requested by letter or Advice Letter that their CPCNs be revoked.

3. The companies' CPCNs should be revoked and their Utility Identification Numbers should be cancelled in cases where they hold no other CPCNs.

THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that:

1. The Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity granted to the following companies are revoked:

	Utility Type	CPCN#	Company Name
1.	RTU	2148	Communications West
