Clear World Communications Corp.; Doc. No. A-310860 Tentative Order By the Commission:
Clear World Communications Corporation (Clear World or Company), utility code 310860, is an Interexchange Carrier—Reseller (IXC-R) certificated at Docket No. A-310860 on January 12, 2000.
Clear World appears to be an inactive business entity. The Company is a Connecticut Domestic Profit Corporation; however, research by Commission staff revealed that the Connecticut Secretary of State lists the business status as ''withdrawn.'' Commission staff's attempts to reach the Company have been unsuccessful: staff called four different phone numbers listed in the Commission's records for the Company and all are no longer in service; staff emailed the Company's CEO/President without success; and the customer service inquiry number listed with the FCC database currently belongs to a travel agency. Commission records show that the Company's last filed annual financial report was in 2015 for the year ended 2014.
Currently, there are no informal or formal complaints pending against Clear World before the Commission. Based on the above facts, we tentatively conclude that it is appropriate to revoke Clear World's certificate of public convenience as being in the public interest. Where a company no longer provides utility service to the public, there is no reason to maintain a certificate of public convenience for that company; Therefore,
It Is Ordered That:
1. Revocation of Clear World Communications Corporation's certificate of public convenience is hereby tentatively approved as being in the public interest.
2. The Secretary serve a copy of this Tentative Order upon the Office of Consumer Advocate, the Office of Small Business Advocate, and the Bureau of Investigation & Enforcement, and also cause a copy of this Tentative Order to be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin with a 30-day comment period.
3. Absent the filing of adverse public comment within 30 days after publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, the Bureau of Technical Utility Services shall prepare a Final Order for entry by the Secretary and shall advise the affected Bureaus within the Commission in writing that the certificate of public convenience held by Clear World Communications Corporation, utility code 310860, is cancelled and the case may be closed.
4. Upon entry of the Final Order described in ordering Paragraph No. 3 above, Clear World Communications Corporation's name will be stricken from all active utility lists maintained by the Commission's Bureau of Technical Utility Services and the Assessment Section of the Bureau of Administration, and the docket shall be closed.
