Purpose


Rule 25-4.0665, F.A.C., would be amended to eliminate the requirement of quarterly reporting, to require that a customer’s Lifeline local service may not be discontinued if the charges, taxes and fees applicable to dial tone, local usage, dual tone multifrequency dialing, emergency services such as “911,” and relay service are paid, and to clarify eligible telecommunications carrier responsibilities regarding record retention, resale of Lifeline lines, and advertising, including developing outreach materials for specific consumer groups and outreach strategies. Consistent with the 2011 changes made to Chapter 364 F.S., Rule 25-4.113, F.A.C., would be repealed. Undocketed.
