Lloyd, Esq. Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C. 701 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20004  Y-XxX` ` X Re:XFCC Form 1210 rate increases for TimesMirror Cable Television of Orange County, Inc. (d/b/a/ Dimension Cable Services)(# Dear Mr. Lloyd: On January 19, 1995, TimesMirror Cable Television of Orange County, Inc., d/b/a Dimension Cable Services ("Dimension") filed with the Cable Services Bureau a request for approval, on an expedited basis, of a proposed rate increase to its cable programming service (CPS) tier as computed on FCC Form 1210. In this request, Dimension states that the increase is necessary due to Dimension's addition of new programming to the referenced systems' CPS tiers over the last three months, and that Dimension intends to implement these  Y-rate changes by March 1, 1995.N Y <ԍ#Xw PE37XP# These filings concern Dana Point, CA (CUID CA0549); Laguna Hills, CA (CA1085); Laguna Niguel, CA (CA0316); Lake Forest, CA (CA1070); Mission Viejo, CA (CA1345); Orange County, CA (CA0184, CA1310, CA0675, CA0723, CA1243, CA0719, CA0194, CA0765, CA1205); San Clemente, CA (CA0193); and San Juan Capistrano, CA (CA0367). Because we found Dimension's rates to be unreasonable,  Y|-obligating it to pay refunds to its CPS subscribers,|N YJ#<ԍ#Xw PE37XP# See, e.g., DA 941334 (Cab.Serv.Bur., released Nov. 29, 1994). Dimension must obtain the Bureau's  Ye-approval before it may increase its CPS tier rate. See FCC Form 1210, page 2.eN Y%<ԍ#Xw PE37XP# We note Dimension's argument that a refund liability for a past period does not  Y&-constitute a finding that the operator's rates are unreasonable. We rely, however, on the broader interpretation permitted by the first sentence, "If the Commission found your rates to be unreasonable less than one year ago and you now wish to increase your rates...." We did"(0*0*0*(" find Dimension's rates unreasonable less than one year ago, and Dimension is accordingly correct in filing an FCC Form 1210 for approval of its proposed rate increase. This"eb0*0*0*" requirement allows us to monitor subsequent rate increases, once we have found rates"S0*0*0*{" unreasonable."t0*0*0*{"Ԍ"0*0*0*{"Ԍ To date, we have undertaken a full review of Dimension's rates only for the period prior to May 15, 1994, and have found those rates unreasonable. Our review of the reasonableness of Dimension's rates from May 15, 1994 to the present is currently underway. With respect to rates charged for the period beginning May 15, 1994, Dimension has filed FCC Forms 1200 and 1205. Dimension's current request for approval of FCC Form 1210 is for expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of 1994. Dimension is requesting CPS tier rate increases of $1.30 or $1.31, as well as increases in basic tier, converter, and remote charges. The CPS rate increase has three components: $.20 is due to changes in external costs; $.98 is  Y1-due to channels added under the new going forward rules;1N Y <ԍ#Xw PE37}XP# See Implementation of Sections of the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992: Rate Regulation, MM Dockets No. 92266 and 93215, Sixth Order on Reconsideration, Fifth Report and Order, and Seventh Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 94286 (released Nov. 18, 1994). Dimension has added three channels, totalling an increase of $.60, plus license fees of $.38. the remainder is due to inflation adjustments. We have reviewed the Form 1210 filings before us, and find no patent defects. We believe that the impetus behind Dimension's request is to provide its subscribers with new programming in the abovenoted communities, and that approval of Dimension's instant request will encourage this development. Our permitting the requested increases is on an interim basis only, and is subject to our determination of the reasonableness of Dimension's CPS rates for the period beginning May 15, 1994, including subsequent changes to the rates filed on Dimension's FCC Form 1200. Thus, although we allow the requested increase for new programming, the increased rate which Dimension may charge is potentially subject to refund if our review of Dimension's FCC Form 1200 and Form 1210 filings finds that Dimension's underlying CPS rate is unreasonable. x` `  hh@hSincerely, x` `  hh@hMeredith J.
