[  S- ` x3.` ` The Commission's original rate regulations took effect on September 1, 1993. The  xyCommission subsequently revised its rate regulations effective May 15, 1994. In a further effort to offer  xsmall cable companies administrative relief from rate regulation, the Commission amended the definition  xof small cable companies and small systems and introduced a simplified form of small system rate relief  xin the Small System Order. In the Small System Order, the Commission introduced FCC Form 1230 to  S - xsimplify the costofservice showings for small cable companies and small systems. zX yO'- xZԍ The FCC Form 1230 is a onepage form "on which the system inserts its expense, rate base, rate of return, channel count and subscriber count figures and then calculates its rate of return." Small Systems Order at Par. 64. FCC Form 1230" ,))II)""  xrequires that the Operator Selected Per Subscriber Monthly Programming Rate Per Channel (FCC Form  x1230, Line A11) not exceed the Per Subscriber, Per Channel Monthly Programming Costs (FCC Form  S- x[1230, Line A6)._)h yO-ԍ See FCC Form 1230, page 3, instructions for line A11._ If the maximum rate established on FCC Form 1230 does not exceed $1.24 per channel  S- xthe rate shall be presumed reasonable.QX)h yO-ԍ See 47 C.F.R. Section 76.934(h) (1996).Q Cable systems serving 15,000 or fewer subscribers, and owned  xby a company having 400,000 or fewer subscribers, may elect to use the small cable system rate  x|mechanism found in FCC Form 1230 in lieu of other Commission rate processes, provided the  S-Commission has not reached a final resolution on the rate complaints filed against the system.I)h yO -ԍ Small Systems Order at par. 75.I  S- ` x4.` ` We first determine that at the time it filed its FCC Form 1230, Operator was a company  x-with fewer than 400,000 total subscribers. We also find that the system in the community referenced above  Sp- x]serves fewer than 15,000 subscribers, making it eligible for small system status. px)h yO- x,ԍ This finding is based solely on the representations of the operator. Should information come to our attention  xYthat these representations were materially inaccurate, we reserve the right to take appropriate action. This Order is  xnot to be construed as a finding that we have accepted as correct any specific entry, explanation or argument made  yO-by any party to this proceeding not specifically addressed herein.  Upon review of  xOperator's FCC Form 1230, we find that Operator's actual CPST rate of $17.42, as found on Line A11, is not unreasonable.  S - ` x5.` ` Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Section 0.321 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. Section 0.321, that Operator's request for small system relief IS GRANTED.
