RE: CASE NO. PCS-T-98-1
APPLICATION OF PREFERRED CARRIER SERVICES, INC. FOR A CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY
On July 20, 1998, Preferred Carrier Services, Inc. (PCS) filed an Application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to provide competitive local exchange services within the state of Idaho. The Company proposes to resell local exchange service to residential and business customers in U S WEST and GTE service areas. The Application indicates that the Company currently does not own or control any of its own telecommunication facilities, but may eventually offer local exchange services through its own facilities. PCS currently provides local exchange service in four states, and is authorized to provide interexchange service in 49 states.
Staff recommends that the Application of PCS for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity be processed by Modified Procedure.
COMMISSION DECISION:
Should the Application of Preferred Carrier Services, Inc. for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity be processed by Modified Procedure?
