This policy initiates a cost recovery system for telecommunications equipment and services provided by the Telecommunications office. Cellular telephone service is available on permanent or loaner basis.
Permanent service is billed direct, customer buys equipment, responsible for all usage charges.
Loaner service is for temporary use, customer billed on a daily rate and for actual usage. Local service includes Harrisonburg, Staunton and Waynesboro. An approved written request and justification must be on file for each telephone. Loaner service is available thru the Office of Telecommunications. The charges established to cover the cost of telecommunications equipment and services will be reviewed annually in the light of the then current quantity of instruments, service mix, capital projects that were completed, labor costs, fringe benefit costs, and other costs of operation.
