(1) (c)
1. A price-regulated telecommunications utility may not
6increase its rates for services under par. (a), except for basic message
7telecommunications service, for a period of 3 years after electing to become price
8regulated. Following the initial 3-year period for services under par. (a), except for
9basic message telecommunications service, and at any time for basic message
10telecommunications service, a price-regulated telecommunications utility may
11increase its rates for those services to the extent that the change in the revenue
12weighted price indices does not exceed 2 percentage points less than the most recent
13annual change in the gross domestic product price index, as published by the federal
14government. The commission shall, by rule, create a penalty mechanism for up to
15a one percentage point increase in the percentage offset for inadequate service
16provided by or insufficient investment made by a price-regulated
17telecommunications utility. The commission shall, by rule, create an incentive
18mechanism for up to a one percentage point decrease in the percentage offset to
19encourage infrastructure investment by the price-regulated telecommunications
20utility. For a telecommunications utility with more than 500,000 access lines in use
21in this state at the time of electing to become price regulated, the percentage offset
22to the change in the gross domestic product price index shall be 3 percentage points
23and the penalty mechanism and incentive mechanism shall be up to 2 percentage
24points. No earlier than 6 years after September 1, 1994, and no more frequently than
1every 3 years thereafter, the commission may, following notice and an opportunity
2for hearing, by rule increase or decrease the gross domestic product price index
3percentage offset by a maximum of one percentage point in any 12-month period to
4reflect any statewide changes in the productivity experience of the
5telecommunications industry. The commission shall promulgate rules to identify the
6factors that the commission may consider in determining changes in the productivity
7experience of the telecommunications industry. If application of the price regulation
8index formula achieves a negative result, prices shall be reduced so that the
9cumulative price change for services under par. (a), including prior price reductions
10in these services, achieves the negative result.
AB925,4,21
112. Annual permitted price increases
under this paragraph may be deferred and
12accumulated for a maximum of 3 years into a single increase. The first permitted
13increase after the telecommunications utility elects to become price regulated shall
14be limited by the most recent annual change in the gross domestic product price
15index, less 2 percentage points, plus or minus any penalty or incentive adjustment.
16For a telecommunications utility with more than 500,000 access lines in use in this
17state, the first permitted increase shall be limited by the most recent annual change
18in the gross domestic product price index, less 3 percentage points, plus or minus any
19penalty or incentive adjustment. The increase in any rate element may not at any
20time exceed 10% or the increase in the gross domestic product price index, whichever
21is greater.
AB925,5,2
223. A rate change under this paragraph shall take effect 45 days after the date
23on which notice is received by the commission. A telecommunications utility shall
24notify customers of a rate change under this paragraph by a bill insert that is
25included in a bill no later than the first billing provided after notice of a rate change
1is submitted to the commission. A telecommunications utility may file only one rate
2increase under this paragraph during any 12-month period.
