Requires reports from certain telephone corporations on the quality and availability of line-powered voice services
This bill requires large telephone companies (with over 10,000 customers) to report on the quality and availability of traditional copper-based phone service ("line-powered voice service") they provide. Covered providers must submit detailed reports within 60 days of the law's effective date, including specific metrics like customer counts, notifications about switching to fiber service, areas where service was discontinued without fiber alternatives, and instances where customers were redirected to fiber after repair requests. The reports must be published on company websites in spreadsheet format, with opportunities for public comment and virtual hearings. This law directly affects major telecom providers and aims to increase transparency about service transitions impacting residential customers.
