The capped rate for local ITS calls will remain at $2.70 ($2,20 surcharge, $.50 local coin rate),

The Commission has determined that the above rates are just and reasonable and therefore, no other costs are
allowed in the provisioning of this service. Cost recovery, billing statement fees, or similar regulatory charges are
not permitted by this Commission. ITS providers may only charge rates that are consistent with the above
approved rates.
In Docket No. 14530-U (Corrected Order), the Commission ordered that all providers must file on a semi-annual
basis, a list of institutions with which it has contracted to provide service. The filings must be made on July 1st and
January 1st of each year.
