The PSC’s decision is a compromise to AT&T’sd request that it no longer deliver the phones booksto customers. AT&T Florida told the PSC that eliminatinf the automatic distribution of the residentiap white pagesis “an environmentally greem endeavor and a cost saving measure” and that providing a papedr copy of the directory is “an inefficient use of resourcesd in these touch economic times.” But commissioners also were worriecd about how it might impacty customers’ ability to access information, said PSC Spokeswoman Kirstebn Olsen.
Instead of doing away with therule altogether, commissionerw agreed to give it a trial run, during which time it will gathert customer feedback. “Today’s decision allowsd the PSC to assess the practicality of discontinuing printed residentiaodirectory delivery, while continuing to provide directories to customersw who want a copy,” PSC Chairmaj Matthew M. Carter II said in a news As part ofthe AT&T must put a toll-free numbefr on the cover of the Yelloaw Pages that directs people to call if they want a Whitr Pages. The directory will still be providec for free to those whorequesgt it.
AT&T Florida would not disclose just how much monet the waiverwill save, citing confidentiality, accordint to its request to the PSC. AT&T Florida already has begun a program to provide its Yellow Pagesw and residential listingson CD-ROM in certain areas of Florida.
