RE: CASE NO. USD-T-97-1; APPLICATION OF US LONG DISTANCE, INC. FOR A CERTIFICATE OF PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY TO PROVIDE LOCAL EXCHANGE SERVICES; MODIFIED PROCEDURE

On June 26, 1997, an Application was filed by US Long Distance, Inc. (USLD) for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity to provide local telephone service in the state of Idaho. The Application states that USLD currently is authorized to provide interexchange services within the state, and seeks authority to provide intraexchange services through the resale of incumbent local exchange company facilities and services.
Staff has worked with the Company in order to obtain adequate information for the Application, and recommends that the Application be processed by Modified Procedure.
Commission Decision
Should the Application of USLD for authority to provide local telephone service within the state be processed by Modified Procedure?
