31.46.01–UNIVERSAL SERVICE FUND RULES
DOCKET NO. 31-4601-9901
NOTICE OF PENDING RULE
EFFECTIVE DATE: This rule has been adopted by the agency and is now pending review by the 2000 Idaho State Legislature for final adoption. The pending rule becomes final and effective at the conclusion of the legislative session, unless the rule is approved, rejected, amended or modified by concurrent resolution in accordance with Section 67-5224 and 67-5291, Idaho Code. If the pending rule is approved, amended or modified by concurrent resolution, the rule becomes final and effective upon adoption of the concurrent resolution or upon the date specified in the concurrent resolution.
AUTHORITY: In compliance with Section 67-5224, Idaho Code, notice is hereby given that this agency has adopted a pending rule. The action is authorized by Section 62-610, Idaho Code.
DESCRIPTIVE SUMMARY: The following is a concise explanatory statement of the reasons for adopting the pending rule and a statement of any change between the text of the proposed rule and the text of the pending rule with an explanation of the reasons for the change.
The present rule seems to be inconsistent with Section 62-610, Idaho Code, by implying that the Commission must revise rates for one-party single-line residence and business service for Universal Service Fund recipients downward to equal the new statewide average in order for the participating companies to continue to receive funding.
The pending rule is being adopted as proposed. The original text of the proposed rule was published in the October 6, 1999 Idaho Administrative Bulletin, Volume 99-10, pages 485-486.
ASSISTANCE ON TECHNICAL QUESTIONS: For assistance on technical questions concerning this pending rule, contact Cheri C. Copsey, Deputy Attorney General, (208) 334-0314.
DATED this day of November 1999.
