Subject: Ruling on Verizon Motion for SurrebuttalAll:
To memorialize our conference call earlier today, I denied Verizon's motion to file surrebuttal testimony on changes in HM 5.3 and to file changes/corrections to the Verizon cost model, but I reserve judgment on whether to strike portions of the HM 5.3 rebuttal cost model if changes are not adequately described and/or responsive to criticism from earlier comments. I did request AT&T/MCI (Joint Commenters) to provide a summary table listing all changes made to HM 5.3 in the November 9, 2004 rebuttal filing, no later than Jan. 21. The table should provide a brief "before/after" description of the features of HM 5.3 that were modified in the rebuttal round. (I suggest starting with the listing of changes alleged by Verizon in its motion for this before/after description, and adding to it if there are more changes to describe). The table should include cites to where in the rebuttal testimony the changes were explained and a cite to criticism by another party in earlier round of comments that led to the modeling change.
I granted Verizon's request to file limited surrebuttal on the three new facts contained in JC's 11/9 rebuttal filing, namely Richter's qualifications (2 page maximum surrebuttal), IDLC (2 page limit), and cites to the NYNEX study (3 page limit). Verizon's limited surrebuttal is due on January 28.
Price floor filing dates are as follows:
Reply comments - January 28
Rebuttal comments - March 18
Deadline for motions requesting hearings - April 1
I will send an official ruling at a later date.
