RE: Toll Blocking
Dear Mary:
Pursuant to our meeting last week, I have enclosed for your review the Orders referenced in the Commission’s reconsideration Order No. 27152.  In that Order, the Commission found that toll restriction service should be regulated as a Title 61 service.  Order No. 27152 at 32-33.  
In the U-1000-86 case, the Commission authorized the Company to offer an optional service package called “TeenLink” which included a second access line, touch tone, toll restriction, and three-way calling.  See Order No. 20349 at 1 (emphasis added).  It appears that Mountain Bell was offering toll restriction service on April 1, 1986.
Please call me if you have further questions.
Sincerely,
Donald L.  Howell, II
Deputy Attorney General
