RE:SILVER STAR TARIFF ADVICE OF JUNE 5, 2007, CHANGING
SERVICE AREA BOUNDARIES.
On June 5, 2007, Silver Star Communications submitted a tariff revision that would
revise the service area boundaries between its Irwin, Idaho exchange and the Idaho portion of its
Alpine, Wyoming exchange. The current boundaries were established as temporary boundaries
due to a lack of facilities from the Irwin central office. Those facilities are now available. The
proposed change would revert back to the original boundaries.
The Application indicates the change would allow customers around the Palisades
Reservoir area from Indian Creek north to Swan Valley to be served out of the Irwin central
office and provide access to Irwin dial tone and the Eastern Idaho local calling area. Customers
from Indian Creek south to Alpine would have no change in their local calling area.
The Company indicated to Staff the existing customers in the area had been notified of
the proposed change and were supportive of the change.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Commission approve Silver Star s request to revise the service
area boundaries between the Irwin and Alpine exchanges back to the original boundaries as
identified in the map on the revised Sheet 103 of its tariff.
