Perhaps this ancient tradition is one of the origins of Spring cleaning.<\/p>\n<p>I noticed a CRTC <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crtc.gc.ca\/archive\/ENG\/Orders\/2007\/o2007-92.htm\">order<\/a> on Monday that may be an indication that the season is helping clear some old files to make for a fresh start, coinciding with the first flowers starting to bloom in the yard.<\/p>\n<p>More than two and a half years ago, TELUS filed tariff applications for a hosted IP-centrex service, IP-Evolution. While the CRTC granted interim approval for the service about two months later, it has taken until this week for a final determination.<\/p>\n<p>Since the time of that filing, the CRTC issued new procedural guidelines, under which it is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crtc.gc.ca\/archive\/ENG\/Circulars\/2005\/ct2005-6.htm\">supposed<\/a> to respond to tariff filings within 10 business days.<\/p>\n<p>The CRTC is supposed to issue either:<\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"color: rgb(102, 102, 102); text-align: justify;\">\n<ol type=\"a\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size:85%;\">an order granting the application interim approval,<br \/><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:85%;\">a letter stating that it intended to dispose of the application within 45 business days of receipt of the application, setting out the reasons why interim approval was not granted,<br \/><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:85%;\">a letter either with interrogatories included or confirmation that interrogatories were to follow within 5 business days, and an indication that it still intended to dispose of the application within 45 business days, or<br \/><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size:85%;\">a letter indicating that the file was being closed due to deficiencies in the application, identifying the specific deficiencies.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crtc.gc.ca\/archive\/ENG\/Letters\/2007\/lt070316.htm\">response<\/a> the CRTC sent to Cochrane Telecom last week: <\/p>\n<blockquote style=\"color: rgb(102, 102, 102); text-align: justify;\"><p><span style=\"font-size:85%;\">The Commission has received no comments relating to the application.
