Where facilities are available, a collecting utility shall provide all one-party residential and single-line business telephone subscribers with an opportunity to block the access of audiotext service providers to subscribers' telephone lines free of charge and with an opportunity to reopen such access. A utility may not charge for customers' first exercise of either option. Thereafter, collecting utilities shall continue to offer subscribers the ability to block and reopen such access, but may charge a fee for provision of this service, which may not exceed $5 for each occasion on which the service is provided. The collecting utility may appeal to the commission for an extension to meet the requirements of this section. The commission may, for good cause shown, grant an extension. [2009, c. 122, §12 (AMD).]
