Iowa Utilities Board Requires Free Sharing of Phone Listings
The Iowa Utilities Board approved rules to require telephone companies to share directory listings at no charge with firms in extended area service agreements. US West had charged 40 cents per listing, a practice the board aims to end. Teleconnect urged broader free sharing with long distance carriers, but the board did not adopt that change. The decision also allows residential customers to obtain service from neighboring companies if they cover equipment and line costs, with waivers possible for public institutions.
