L.ocal Phone Rate Would
Jump $6 Under Proposal
General Telephone Com
panK of the Southeast this
week filed an aß‘;:lication with
the Georgia blic Service
Commission requesting
$18.6 million in increased an
nual revenues. If approved in
full, the compan{'s statewide
revenues would increase
about 24 percent according to
Phil Hays, Interim State
Manager for General
Telg&hone.
e main reasons for the
General Telephone rate in
crease, Hays said are the need
to recover capital investment
in a shorter time period, the
investment of more than $34.3
million in new facilities since
the last rate case, and the im
pact of federally mandated
deregulation and competition
in the tele-communication in
dustry.
