RE: MTS Allstream Tariff Notice 683
Dear Mr. Maksimow:
On 10 September 2009, the Commission received an application from MTS Allstream Inc. (MTS Allstream) under cover of Tariff Notice 683. The company is proposing changes to its Supplementary Tariff Special Services and Facilities, Item 9710 – Wire Watch service to change the terms and conditions of the service to no longer offer Phone Watch service as an optional bundle service arrangement with Wire Watch service.
The company indicated that the application qualified as a Group B retail filing pursuant to Approval mechanism for retail and CLEC tariffs, Telecom Decision CRTC 2008-74, 21 August 2008.
Commission staff notes that the application does not meet the definition of Group B filings as Decision 2008-74 specifies that Group B filings will consist of those retail tariff filings that do not belong to Group A and are not associated with service destandardizations or withdrawal. Accordingly, the application will not receive interim approval on the 15th calendar day.
The application will be treated in accordance with the procedures and timelines established in Mandatory customer contract renewal notification and requirements for service destandardization/withdrawal, Telecom Decision CRTC 2008-22, 6 March 2008.
Yours sincerely,
‘Original signed by S. Bédard’
