KCC to Probe Telephone Industry in Kansas
The Kansas Corporation Commission forms a task force to study the telephone industry over two to three years. It will examine AT&T changes under the Second Computer Inquiry, the upcoming split of Bell System operations, and the impact on rate cases and Bell marketing plans in Kansas. The commission cites Southwestern Bell’s recent $28.44 million rate increase and potential discriminatory effects of the Installed Base Migration Strategy.
