- The {L.A. Times} reported on November 24th [I'm a bit behind in my
- reading] that the California PUC met on November 23, and voted 3-to-1
- to ease some of the CLID restrictions they had imposed in their June
- ruling. They said that the LECs only had to educate people in the
- areas where they were going to offer the service, not statewide. The
- PUC also ruled that per-line blocking with per-call unblock, required
- in their June ruling, would be subject to a "limited rehearing" on its
- technical feasibility.
-
- Pacific Bell said in a July filing that developing the technical
- capability to offer that form of blocking would take three years.
-
- In response to this latest ruling, Michael J. Miller, Pac Bell's VP
- for regulatory affairs, said "I'm encouraged by the words I see, but
- we can't really say [if we want to offer CLID] until we look at the
- order ... and do some more economic analysis," which could a couple of
- weeks.
-
- GTE and Contel also said they would have to review the order before
- deciding if they would offer CLID.

- [Moderator's Note: I am confused. Is this message from Randy
- superceeded by the two messages from Greenberg and Higdon in this
- issue based on the 12/23 news reports? Is the 'limited rehearing' they
- mentioned what resulted in the 12/23 news stories? PAT]
