Calaveras’ Request: Calaveras is a small independent telephone company serving portions of western Calaveras County. Communities served include Copperopolis and Jenny Lind. Calaveras provides regulated telephone service and its affiliate company, CalTel Internet provides unregulated Internet service. On November 15, 2023, Calaveras filed an application with the CPUC requesting a review of its intrastate rates, revenue requirement and rate design. Calaveras proposes to increase basic residential and basic business rates. Calaveras’ application includes a request to update California High Cost Fund-A amounts that the company receives. Calaveras’ proposed residential rate would increase from $25 to $26 per month, resulting in an “all-inclusive” residential rate of $36.43 per month, inclusive of surcharges and fees. Similar to the residential rate increase, Calaveras proposes to increase the basic business rate by $1, from $27.33 to $28.33 per month. Calaveras proposes to modify its basic single‐line residential and business services to include certain custom calling features and voicemail for the same price as the current basic rates. The Administrative Law Judge assigned to the proceeding is scheduled to issue a Proposed Decision in the case for consideration by the CPUC within a year.
