WAIVER OF SWITCHED ACCESS RULES
The Commission approved a composite switched access rate of 7 cents per minute of use. "The rate, which was stipulated to within the purchase agreements between U S WEST and [the purchasing] companies, was accepted by the Commission and approved as a reasonable interim rate in recognition of the fact that no rate could be established pursuant to the Commission's switched access rules (ARSD Chapters 20:10:27 to 20:10:29) until each of the purchasing companies had operated the transferred exchange areas for at least a one-year time period ....Because [the purchasing] companies have not yet operated the acquired exchanges for one year, it is necessary to request from the Commission an extension of the waiver previously granted in the exchange sale dockets. Based on the following, the [purchasing] companies request an extension of the waiver until such time that cost studies based on 1997 calendar year operations can be provided."
