Section PSC 168.07 - Continuation of certification(1) A certificate issued under this chapter is subject to automatic expiration if the reseller fails to file the annual report required by s. PSC 168.12, and the fee required under sub. (2) if the certificated reseller is not subject to assessment under s. PSC 168.09(2). The expiration of a certificate shall be effective June 1 of the year in which the required report, or any fee required by this section, was not filed by April 1, or such later date as may be ordered by the commission.(2) A reseller not subject to assessment under s. PSC 168.09(2) shall pay a fixed fee with the filing of the annual report. The commission by order may determine the amount of the fee and the permissible form or forms of payment. An annual report received by the commission that is not accompanied by a required fee in the proper amount or form of payment will not be considered a substantially complete annual report filing for purposes of s. PSC 168.13(1) (a) and may be returned. Note The current fee is $100, payable in any check form or by money order. Cash is not acceptable.
(3) A reseller issued its initial certificate under s. PSC 168.06 afterJanuary 1 and on or before April 1 shall comply with this section commencing in the succeeding calendar year.(4) Commencing upon December, 31, 1997, existing certificates of authority that are held by any type of alternative telecommunications utility and that authorize the holder to engage in any type of resale of intrastate telecommunications services, shall be treated as follows: (a) Any alternative telecommunications utility reseller holding an interim or final certificate of authority from the commission remains authorized to conduct its telecommunications business in this state under that certificate. Any interim certificate, however, shall be deemed permanent and modified to authorize resale of intrastate telecommunications services in compliance with this chapter, including the provision for expiration of certification for failure to comply with this section. This paragraph does not apply to make permanent any certification that was originally granted on an interim basis on account of the petitioner's fitness and does not modify or rescind any terms and conditions imposed by the commission upon certifying under this chapter an alternative telecommunications utility reseller that is affiliated with a telecommunications utility authorized under s. 196.50(2), Stats. Note Under this paragraph resellers having interim authorization to provide alternative operator services under commission docket 05-TI-116 now have permanent certification to provide those services in accordance with this chapter. Any reseller that had interim certification because of a fitness question still has interim certification, but is obliged to comply with this chapter. Except for fitness limitations, all existing alternative telecommunications utility (ATU) reseller certificates are deemed modified to make the resale operations of such resellers uniformly subject to this chapter, except where the certificate contains unique terms and conditions on account of the ATU reseller's affiliation with a telecommunications utility. This provision does not make permanent those interim terms and conditions imposed on a certificate on account of a reseller's affiliation with a telecommunications utility. Those interim terms and conditions are subject to further investigation in docket 05-TI-138 or any related dockets dealing with affiliate relationships.
(b) Any alternative telecommunications utility other than a reseller certified under s. 196.01(1d) (c), Stats., retains interim or permanent certification as provided in its certificate. Any authorization in the certificate to resell intrastate telecommunications services shall be deemed modified to incorporate by reference the duty to comply with this chapter, except as modified or supplemented by the express terms of the certificate or the provisions of any applicable commission order.Wis.
