1999-239 - Local Competition Start-Up Costs Proceeding, Telecom Public Notice CRTC 1998-10. File No.: 8622-S1-3/98. The Commission finds that: (a) a revenue requirement methodology is appropriate for recognizing the Companies’ local competition start-up and LNP costs and (b) there is insufficient information on the record to enable it to make a final determination as to the reasonableness of the local competition start-up costs and LNP costs identified by the Companies. In order to examine further the level of the costs submitted, the Commission is addressing additional interrogatories to the Companies. The Commission will render a final determination with respect to this matter, as well as other matters raised in this proceeding that are not expressly addressed in this Order, at a later date. Notwithstanding the above, the Commission considers it appropriate to permit the Companies to include LNP and local competition start-up costs in the calculation of the revenue reductions they are required to implement at the Price Cap Index level through filings to be made by the Companies by 31 March 1999 with respect to their 1999 price cap parameters. For this purpose, the Commission accepts at this time, on an interim basis, the cash flows submitted by the Companies, modified to reflect the use of the revenue requirement methodology. The Commission considers that the Companies’ local competition start-up and LNP costs allocated to capped Utility services should be recovered through an exogenous factor.

1999-1127 - Microcell's tariff application to provide local services. TN 1. The Commission denies a tariff application by wireless service provider Microcell Connexions Inc. (Microcell) because it fails to comply with existing local competition rules. On 1 May 1997, the CRTC released a decision to open the door to local competition that is technology-neutral. Telecom Decision CRTC 1997-8 determined that wireless competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs) would be subject to the same terms and conditions as wireline CLECs. However, in its attempt to qualify as a CLEC, Microcell filed a tariff that is significantly different from the tariffs of the incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and CLECs. This order notes specific areas of concern in the tariff application that Microcell may wish to address if it chooses to file a subsequent tariff. For instance, the Commission wants to know how local contribution charges payable will be determined when wireless customers are roaming and making calls from outside their home calling area. This order also specifies that Microcell will be prohibited from selling wholesale local services to an affiliate, unless that affiliate provides end-users with a choice of long distance service providers. The Commission continues to support the notion of wireless local service providers becoming CLECs, but finds that Microcell's tariff application is inconsistent with the interconnection framework that underpins local competition in Canada.

1999-1128 - BC TEL. TN 3985. DENIED. Extension of the "Additional Line" promotion.

1999-1135 - Stentor (on behalf of BC TEL, Bell, Island Tel, MTT, MTS, NBTel, NewTel and TCI). Tariff filing guidelines for customer specific applications. File No.: 8622-S1-04/98. In this order, the Commission denies Stentor's proposed options related to filings for the approval of tariffs for customer specific applications. The Commission considers that 1) the lack of binding terms and conditions in the tariff would render the imputation test meaningless; 2) there is a significant potential for undue preference and unjust discrimination; and 3) the proposal could restrict the requirement that the service be available for resale.

1999-1229 - Denial of Call-Net request for new network access rates. File No.: 8662-C25-02/99. The CRTC denies an application from Call-Net Communications Inc. to overturn its decision to charge interexchange carriers (IXCs) for network access services at rates different from those charged to retail customers. The Commission disagrees that there are grounds to review and vary 1999-340 that was released on 12 April 99. Call-Net contends that since alternative long distance carriers are themselves customers of the incumbent telephone companies, they should not be required to pay more than retail customers. The Commission believes that IXCs have a substantially different relationship with the telephone companies compared with retail customers. Furthermore, IXCs' rates could be different for services identical to those purchased by end-users. This is not unusual, given that business rates are higher than residential rates for essentially the same services.

1999-1233 - Bell Canada withdrawal from Partial System Offering and introduction of an option to purchase leased plant. File Nos.: Tariff Notice 5928 and 1996-2184. The CRTC approves the withdrawal and destandardization of the Partial System Offering (PSO), a service whereby Bell Canada leases distribution plant to cable companies. In addition, the cable companies that currently use this service will have the option to purchase this plant. Many cable companies in Ontario and Quebec lease plant consisting mainly of cabling attached to Bell's support structures in order to transport their distribution signals. On 18 December 1996, the Canadian Cable Television Association requested that the Commission require Bell to offer its PSO clients the option to purchase this PSO plant. In January 1997, Bell agreed to this request and at the same time, proposed to withdraw from the provision of the PSO. Until withdrawal takes place, Bell proposed not to accept any requests for extensions to existing systems or applications for new systems. In doing so, the telephone company would destandardize the provision of the PSO. The Commission approves the destandardization as well as the withdrawal of Bell's PSO. The withdrawal will generally take place three years from the date of this order.
