20:10:32:56Petition for waiver -- Granting of waiver.

Upon petition of a telecommunications company, the commission may grant a waiver, after notice and opportunity for hearing, of any certification requirement contained in §§ 20:10:32:52 to 20:10:32:54, inclusive. In determining whether to grant a waiver, the commission shall consider whether the requirement is unduly burdensome and unnecessary for the commission to certify that the carrier is using federal high cost support only for the provision, maintenance, and upgrading of facilities and services for which the support is intended.
