On July 17, 2012, the Commission received a filing from Budget PrePay, Inc. dba Budget Phone (Company). This filing implements the terminating switched access rate reductions of the Federal Communications Commission Report and Order in WC Docket No. 10-90, etc., FCC No. 11-161 (released November 18, 2011) ("FCC Order"). The Company had no intrastate South Dakota terminating access demand for FY 2011, therefore no reductions were necessary. This filing reduces the terminating access rate(s) to the proposed July 2014 rate(s), should the Company start to provide access services. The Company requests an effective date for this filing of July 18, 2012.
