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 there are numerous competitors in the long distance market.
The Telecommunications Division (TD) recommends that these requests for revocation be granted and that the companies' Utility Identification Numbers be cancelled. TD's Public Programs Branch has determined that the company's surcharge accounts have no unremitted balances.
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.
1. The companies on the above list were certificated by the Commission as NDIECs.
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.
THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that:
1. The Non-Dominant Interexchange Carrier Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity granted to the following companies are revoked:
