RE: APPLICATION OF DIAL & SAVE OF IDAHO, INC., D.B.A. DIAL & SAVE FOR A CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY TO PROVIDE LOCAL EXCHANGE SERVICE AS A COMPETITIVE LOCAL CARRIER. -- CASE NO. DIL-T 97 1.
On May 31, 1996, the Commission received an Application from Dial & Save of Idaho, Inc., d.b.a. Dial & Save, for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to provide local exchange service as a competitive local carrier. On November 7, 1996, subsequent to the receipt of the Application, the Commission issued a procedural order setting forth what an Application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity submitted by a new local service provider in Idaho must contain in order to be considered by the Commission. See Procedural Order No. 26665. Staff returned the Application to Dial & Save on April 14, 1997, requesting it to resubmit the Application in conformance with Commission guidelines as outlined in Order No. 26665. Exhibit A, Staff Letter dated April 14, 1997. Dial & Save has not resubmitted the Application as of the date of this Decision Memo.
