After completing the review and receiving the requested letter that
states there were no material year-end financial adjustments in
1994 for Concord TV Cable, staff determined that Concord TV Cable
had calculated the basic service tier rates consistent with
established FCC guidelines, and that there is no refund liability
for the period covered by the FCC Forms 1200 or 1210 . (Effective
August 15, 1994 and beyond. )
Therefore, staff recommends that the Board approve the FCC Forms
1200 and 1210 submitted by Concord TV Cable.
