S.D. Admin. R. 20:10:05:01 - Scope and application

Chapters 20:10:05 to 20:10:10, inclusive, apply to all telecommunications companies certified within the state of South Dakota which are regulated by the commission for noncompetitive and emerging competitive telecommunications services as they provide or withhold credit and service to their customers. However, chapters 20:10:05 to 20:10:10, inclusive, do not apply to telecommunications companies exempt from commission regulation under SDCL 49-31-5.1 or to access services subject to commission regulation under SDCL 49-31-15, 49-31-17, 49-31-18, or 49-31-19. The provisions in chapters 20:10:05 to 20:10:10 do not relieve a telecommunications company from any of its duties under the laws of the state of South Dakota. If unreasonable hardship to a telecommunications service applicant, subscriber, or telecommunications company results from complying with any commission rule in chapters 20:10:05 to 20:10:10, inclusive, application may be made to the commission for modification of the rule or for temporary exemption from its requirement.
