Section 4 CCR 723-2-2462 - Service Applicability

Colorado statutes (§ 40-15-101, C.R.S., et seq .) categorize telecommunications service regulation into three segments: Regulated Telecommunications Services (Part 2), Emerging Competitive Telecommunications Services (Part 3), and Deregulated Telecommunications Services (Part 4). The statutes, Commission decisions, and Commission rules categorize these telecommunications services into three regulatory schemes. The level of actual competition in a specific service is the primary determinant for the extent of regulation of that service under the statute.

(a) Rule 2463 shall cover Part II telecommunications services.
(b) Part III telecommunications services shall be treated differently depending upon the amount of actual demonstrated competition for each service.
(I) Part III telecommunications services for which the Commission has not made a determination regarding the level of competition or has determined that competition is absent or negligible (i.e., the provider has significant market power for the service(s)) shall be covered by rule 2463.
(II) Part III telecommunications services for which the Commission has determined competition is sufficient to warrant relaxed regulatory treatment shall be covered by rule 2464.
(c) Rules 2463 and 2464 do not apply to Part 4 telecommunications services. It is assumed that the competitive market determines prices for Part 4 services. Additional protection is provided by applicable Commission rules prohibiting cross-subsidization.
