1 Telecommunications Deregulation: Updating the Scorecard for 2013 Sherry Lichtenberg, Ph.D. Principal Telecommunications National Regulatory Research Institute NARUC Staff Subcommittee on Accounting & Finance September 10, 2013
2 Legislation at a glance 27 states have reduced or eliminated commission oversight First wave of legislation focused on limiting retail oversight 11 states eliminated or significantly limited basic service and COLR requirements Basic service requirements in non-competitive areas only Carriers may use any service (wireless, wireline, VoIP) to meet requirements Oversight of quality of service, customer complaints, billing, limited or withdrawn altogether Customers can vote with their feet Complaint process moved to other state agencies 2013 legislation focuses on removing oversight of VoIP and IP-enabled service Commission retains oversight of ETC designation, 911, intrastate access, TRS, and wholesale requirements (including interconnection) NRRI 2
3 Legislation spans all former ILEC regions Legislation has passed in 20 of the 22 states where AT&T is the primary wireline carrier Legislation eliminating COLR requirements failed in Kentucky Legislation limiting commission oversight to basic service only failed in Connecticut Legislation growing in the 13 states where Verizon is the primary wireline carrier 5 states in the Verizon wireline footprint have passed legislation removing or limiting oversight Legislation in Delaware eliminates COLR obligations, allows carriers to abandon competitive offerings without notice, and eliminates regulatory assessments NRRI 3
4 Region Summary (continued) 6 states in legacy Qwest s 14 state local service territory have reduced or eliminated oversight Legislation in Arizona would have removed all oversight of IP services, including market entry and exit Legislation in CO would have removed IP oversight and deemed all new products unregulated Iowa Utilities Board studying changes to regulation, including COLR FairPoint has been de-regulated in Northern New England NRRI 4
5 Legislation reduces or eliminates commission oversight First wave of legislation focused on limiting retail oversight 10 states eliminated or significantly limited basic service and COLR requirements Basic service requirements in non-competitive areas only Carriers may use any service (wireless, wireline, VoIP) to meet requirements Oversight of quality of service, customer complaints, billing, limited or withdrawn altogether Customers can vote with their feet Complaint process moved to other state agencies 2013 legislation focuses on removing oversight of VoIP and IP-enabled service Commission retains oversight of ETC designation, 911, intrastate access, TRS, and wholesale requirements (including interconnection) NRRI 5
6 Current Legislation NRRI 6
7 Proposed Legislation by State NRRI 7
8 The Potential De-regulated Landscape NRRI 8
9 What will these changes mean? Technology is bringing new choices VoIP Wireless Other IP-enabled services Deregulation is limiting commission support/responses Consumers are caught in the middle NRRI 9
10 Key Questions for Companies and Regulators Going Forward Could collaboration among regulators, companies, and consumers become a viable substitute for regulation? How do we determine whether competition is a viable substitute for regulation? Initial bills require a specific number of competitors to declare a market no longer regulated What do we do if some or all of those competitors leave the market? Do we need a process to track the level and success of competition on an ongoing basis? Do we need a back-up plan? How do we ensure the universal availability of service without COLR requirements? What do we do if the primary carrier (ILEC, cable company) withdraws from the market? Do we need a new focus on network reliability? NRRI 10
11 1. Consumer protection: ensure that users are protected from unfair or illegal practices (including cyber threats) and that their privacy is maintained. 2. Network reliability and public safety: ensure that all communications networks are reliable and available, regardless of technology. 3. Competition: The states are well positioned to work with all stakeholders to ensure robust competition and customer choice. 4. Interconnection: Networks must remain interconnected on a non-discriminatory basis. 5. Universal Service: The states and the FCC should work together to ensure that service is reliable, affordable, and ubiquitous. 6. Regulatory diversity: Regulation should be functional across technologies and developed after reviewing and evaluating constitutional and statutory state and federal roles and exploring multiple points of view. 7. Evidence-based decision making: Evidence based decision making should be the primary tool in reforming regulatory policies. 8. Broadband access, affordability, and adoption: States have a key role in implementing broadband deployment and protecting consumers. NRRI 11
