COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY BEFORE THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION In the Matter of: AN INQUIRY INTO THE STATE CASE NO. UNIVERSAL SERVICE FUND 2016·00059 ORDER On February 1, 2016, the Commission, on its own motion, initiated this administrative proceeding to investigate the current and future funding, distribution, and administration of the Kentucky Universal Service Fund ("KUSF") , which provides supplemental support for authorized telecommunications carriers that also participate in the federal Lifeline program. The Commission stated that the need for the investigation arose from the projected depletion of the KUSF by April 2016, at which time the fund will no longer be able to meet its monthly obligation, absent action to increase funding or reduce spending. The Commission named as parties the Attorney General's office; all Local Exchange Carriers; all commercial mobile radio service providers; and all eligible telecommunications carriers, and established a procedural schedule providing for the filing of testimony by parties, discovery, and an opportunity for a hearing. In initiating this investigation, the Commission's February 1, 2016 Order cited the need to maintain the solvency of the KUSF and proposed to either temporarily raise the KUSF per-line surcharge from $0.08 to $0.14 or to temporarily lower the amount of state support. Any comments addressing either proposal were required to be filed no later than February 22, 2016. The Commission received a total of nine joint and/or individual comments from the parties to the case, as well as three comments from members of the public. Four joint and/or individual comments 1 expressed support for the Commission's proposal to temporarily raise the per-line monthly surcharge from $0.08 to $0.14. Three joinVand or individual comments2 were neutral regarding the proposed Commission action. Only East Kentucky Wireless, LLC d/b/a Appalachian Wireless supported reducing the KUSF support to $2.00. The Attorney General proposed applying the "principles of gradualism," and suggested that the Commission increase the surcharge to $0.12 and decrease the amount of KUSF support to $2.75. Based upon the recommendations, the Commission finds that the surcharge should be raised to $0.14 on an interim basis while this proceeding is pending. We base our decision on a variety of factors, most notably the proportional impact of the increase in the surcharge versus a decrease in support. A six-cent increase in an average wireless customer's monthly bill is an approximate 0.13 percent increase. By comparison, a $1 .50 decrease in the amount of state support would result in a ' These comments are: 1) The joint comments of Airvoice Wireless.

For example, Cincinnati Bell offers a Lifeline discount of $12.75 per line for voice service. Cincinnati Bell offers basic local exchange service at $18.30 a month, meaning that a Lifeline customer now pays approximately $5.55 per month for basic service. A reduction of $1.50 from the KUSF would lead to an approximate rate increase of 27 percent to the Lifeline customer's bill. Also weighing heavily on our decision is that the majority of parties filing comments did not oppose the surcharge increase, and that the increase is temporary, pending the outcome of this investigation. We also note that a $0.14 surcharge to support a state universal service fund is relatively modest compared to surcharges of other nearby states. For example, rather than a specific amount, Indiana and Illinois impose a monthly surcharge of 0.54 percent and 1.0941 percent respectively on the retail portions of a customers' bill. South Carolina imposes a surcharge of 2.6654 percent, and Georgia imposes one of 2.9 percent. As in the past, for carriers maintaining tariffs with the Commission, this surcharge should be shown on the customer's bill as ~ Kentucky Lifeline Surcharge." Additionally, carriers that maintain tariffs with the Commission must submit to the Commission updated tariffs no later than March 15, 2016, to reflect the change in surcharge. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that: 1. The surcharge for the Kentucky Lifeline Program shall, on an interim basis, be $0.14 per access line per month beginning with bills rendered on and after the date of this Order, or, as soon as allowed by applicable contracts between customers and carriers. -3- Case No. 2016-00059 2. By March 15, 2016, where applicable, carriers shall submit tariff revisions to reflect this change.

The data compiled in this report are for the year 2008. The data are compiled from reports submitted to the FCC by U.S. carriers pursuant to Section 43.61 of the Commission's rules.1 Section 43.61(a) directs carriers to file reports by July 31 which summarize international telecommunications service provided during the preceding calendar year. Carriers submit corrections of the data by October 31. The specific filing requirements are set forth in the Manual for Filing Section 43.61 Data (June 1995). Statistical Findings • U.S.-billed minutes increased 7.0% from 70.0 billion in 2007 to 74.9 billion in 2008. • In 2008, 77 U.S. facilities-based and facilities-resale carriers (see definitions on page 3) together reported that they billed $6.5 billion for international telephone service, and $816 million for international private line and other miscellaneous services, compared to $6.5 billion and $717 million, respectively, in 2007.

    Funding for the Telecommunications Relay

    COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY BEFORE THE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION In the Matter of: FUNDING FOR THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ) CASE NO. RELAY SERVICE ) 2017 -00358 ORDER On September 14, 2017, the Commission issued an Order in this proceeding requiring that the Telecommunications Relay Service ("TRS") fund surcharge be reduced by one cent ($0.01) to one cent ($0.01) per month effective January 1, 2018. In addition, the Commission established a deadline to receive comments regarding a frequency schedule for the Commission to review the TRS fund and related surcharge in the future. The Commission received no comments. The Commission finds that it will conduct a formal review of the TRS fund and the surcharge on an annual basis. Annual reviews of the TRS fund should reduce the potential for large balance shortfalls and overages. Annual reviews will commence approximately 120 days from the end of the calendar year, with the goal of implementing any changes on the first day of the following calendar year. The goal would also be to issue an order within 60 days of the initiation of the annual review so that providers will have ample time to implement any changes, if ordered. These annual formal reviews would be in addition to ongoing monitoring and would not prevent the Commission from making any changes in the interim period. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that: 1. The Commission annually will conduct a fo rmal review of the TRS fund to determine if a change in the surcharge is warranted. 2. This case is closed and removed from the Commission's docket.
