Subject : Follow-up to Decision CRTC 2001-756, Regulatory framework for the small incumbent telephone companies, 14 December 2001

In Decision 2001-756, the Commission stated that an appropriate Direct Toll (DT) and Network Access Tariff (NAT) cost recovery methodology and the requirement for a transition mechanism could not be determined based on the record of the proceeding.

The Commission concluded that a consultative proceeding would be initiated to review all aspects of DT and NAT costing in the small incumbent telephone companies' territories.

As part of this consultative proceeding, CRTC staff is requesting information with respect to the estimated revenues that may be generated by the application of rates for Direct Connect (DC), Equal Access (EA) and trunking charges.

Companies are asked to provide their replies to the interrogatories in Appendix A by 27 May 2002 with copies served on interested parties identified in Appendix C.

Yours sincerely,

Donna K. Malliff
Manager,
Independent Telephone Companies
Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission
