Agreements for provisions of competitive 9 telecommunications services differing from tariffs. A 10 telecommunications carrier may negotiate with customers or 11 prospective customers to provide competitive 12 telecommunications service, and in so doing, may offer or 13 agree to provide such service on such terms and for such 14 rates or charges as are reasonable, without regard to any 15 tariffs it may have filed with the Commission with respect to 16 such services. Within 3010business days after executing 17 any such agreement, the telecommunications carrier shall file 18 any contract or memorandum of understanding for the provision 19 of telecommunications service, which shall include the rates 20 or other charges, practices, rules or regulations applicable 21 to the agreed provision of such service. Any cost support 22 required to be filed with the agreement by some other Section -2- LRB9203342JScsam 1 of this Act shall be filed within 30 calendar days after 2 executing any such agreement. Where the agreement contains 3 the same rates, charges, practices, rules, and regulations 4 found in a single contract or memorandum already filed by the 5 telecommunications carrier with the Commission, instead of 6 filing the contract or memorandum, the telecommunications 7 carrier may elect to file a letter identifying the new 8 agreement and specifically referencing the contract or 9 memorandum already on file with the Commission which contains 10 the same provisions. A single letter may be used to file 11 more than one new agreement. Upon filing its contract or 12 memorandum, or letter, the telecommunications carrier shall 13 thereafter provide service according to the terms thereof, 14 unless the Commission finds, after notice and hearing, that 15 the continued provision of service pursuant to such contract 16 or memorandum would substantially and adversely affect the 17 financial integrity of the telecommunications carrier or 18 would violate any other provision of this Act. 19 Any contract or memorandum entered into and filed 20 pursuant to the provisions of this Section may, in the 21 Commission's discretion, be accorded proprietary treatment. 22 (Source: P.A. 90-185, eff. 7-23-97; 90-574, eff. 3-20-98.)".
