This is an electronic copy. 97-239 adopting building block rates based upon revised cost study results approved in Order No.
Applicants raise two arguments.
First, they contend that the overall building block markup is too high. GTE and USWC maintain that the joint application does not state sufficient grounds to warrant reconsideration. With respect to this issue, Applicants merely reassert arguments that have been previously considered and addressed. The allegation that the NAC markup creates a barrier to entry in violation of 253 of the Act falls within scope of the rule however. The Commission grants reconsideration to address this claim.
