Public Notice
On November 9, Southwestern Bell Telephone Company
filed a tariff which proposes to prevent local exchange calling over
interstate, unrestricted, multi-jurisdictional, WATS Access Lines
(UWALs) and intrastate WATS Access Lines (WALs).
UWALs ate provided to interexchange carriers for their
use in the provision of interexchange interstate and intrastate
long-distance and WATS-type services. Similarly, WALs are
designed for use in the provision of interLATA and intraLATA WATS
services. The UWALs and WALs were not intended to allow local
exchange calling.
If these proposed tariff changes are approved, the blocking of
local exchange calls over intrastate WATS access lines and UWALs
will take place within 30 days. This proposed tariff change will not
result in the blocking of local calls placed to an 800 Service number.
The Public Utility Commission (PUC) of Texas has assigned
this matter to Docket8421. A hearing on the merits of these proposed
tariff changes is scheduled tor March 13,1989.
Persons who wish to intervene or otherwise participate in
these proceedings should mail a request to the Public Utility
Commission of Texas, 7800 Shoal Creek Boulevard, Suite 400N,
Austin. Texas 78757 by February 27,1989. Further information may
also be obtained by calling the PUC Public Information Office at
