1. TC97-029 IN THE MATTER OF THE FILING BY MCLEODUSA TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. FOR APPROVAL OF ITS LOCAL EXCHANGE TARIFF. (Staff Analyst: Harlan Best. Staff Attorney: Karen Cremer.)

On March 21, 1997, the Commission received a filing by McLeodUSA Telecommunications Services, Inc. (McLeodUSA) for approval of its tariff reflecting local exchange service offerings in the Aberdeen, Pierre-Fort Pierre, Rapid City, Sioux Falls and North Sioux City exchanges in South Dakota. The tariff includes general rules and regulations, description of services offered, and rates and charges. An intervention deadline of April 11, 1997, was established. On March 31, 1997, PAMCOMM filed a request to intervene. At it regularly scheduled meeting of April 15, 1997, the Commission granted intervention to PAMCOMM. On the afternoon of April 15, 1997, PAMCOMM's representative, Doug Schneider, contacted the Commission's Executive Director and asked to withdraw PAMCOMM's intervention request.

TODAY, shall the Commission approve PAMCOMM's intervention withdrawal? And, shall the Commission approve McLeodUSA's tariff filing?
