HOUSE BILL NO. 121 |
|
AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 26 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO RATE SCHEDULES AND RATE CLASSIFICATIONS. |
Amend §301, Title 26 of the Delaware Code by adding a new subsection (d) therein to read as follows:
"(d)Not withstanding any other law, no public utility may assess switched access rates pursuant to tariff that are higher than the switched access rates set forth in the tariffs of the service provider serving the largest number of local exchange access lines in the State.".
SYNOPSIS
|
Delaware has two regulatory schemes for competitive local exchange carriers providing telecommunication services in Delaware.Under Section 707 of Title 26, a local exchange carrier cannot charge a switched access rate higher than that charged by the largest service provider in the State.Currently, Section 301 of Title 26 does not contain this same rate ceiling.This legislation provides parity between the two regulatory processes so that regardless of the regulatory scheme governing the carrier, the switched access rates of all Delaware carriers would be subject to the same ceiling.This legislation closes a loop hole and treats all carriers equally by applying the existing ceiling to all carriers.This legislation mirrors the unified ceiling in federal law for rates for interstate service. |
