If the Commission finds the rate to be unreasonable, it shall  S`'determine the correct rate and any refund liability.K ` {O 'ԍ  47 C.F.R. 76.957.K  S'  kN3.` ` Section 623(c) of the Communications Act,@ D yO 'ԍ 47 U.S.C.  543(c).@ which establishes the criteria for Commission  |$regulation of the cable programming service tier, does not apply to cable programming services provided  S' |$after March 31, 1999.T  {O4'ԍ See 47 U.S.C.  543(c)(4) (1996).T The Commission does not have authority to review CPST rates which became  |$xeffective after March 31, 1999. Since 1993, the Commission has been receiving and resolving complaints  |$gfrom subscribers and LFA's regarding the CPST rates. Although the Commission has resolved almost  |$18,000 complaints involving 5,700 communities during that time frame, there are still complaints that are  |$tpending and need to be resolved. In addition to the pending complaints, there are a number of pending  |$petitions for reconsideration of prior orders. Most of these prior orders that are the subject of a pending  |$*appeal determined that a cable system operator had incurred refund liability for overcharges on its CPST.  |$Several petitions are against prior orders which found that the operator did not incur any refund liability,  |$either because its CPST rate was found to be reasonable or because the total amount of the refund was  SX'de minimis and it would not have been in the public interest to order a refund.  S '  kS4.` ` Prior to the sunset of CPST regulation, a de minimis order may have had some small  |$xeffect on subsequent rate calculations. For instance, if a review of an operator's FCC Form 393 indicated  S' |$that the operator was overcharging $0.02 for its CPST, an order might find the refund amount to be de  S' |$minimis but require the operator to adjust its rates downward by $0.02 on a going forward basis. With  Sp' |$sunset, the period of CPST rate regulation has become finite and it is possible to determine whether a de  SJ'minimis finding had any further effect on an operator's CPST rates.  S'  k5.` ` It would not be a judicious use of Commission resources to attempt to resolve appeals of  |$^CPST rate orders which had no adverse effect on the petitioner, either because the order found no refund  S' |$liability at all or found a de minimis liability which did not later result in the petitioner incurring actual  |$refund liability. Resolution of such appeals will have no consequences other than to put additional strain  |$&on limited Commission resources which are better put to resolving pending complaints and appeals of  |$orders which involve potential or actual refund liability. Therefore, we have determined that appeals of  |$gCPST rate orders which do not involve actual refund liability will be dismissed because there is no real relief which may be granted through resolution of the appeal. "f ,p(p(88"Ԍ S'  k46.` ` In our Prior Order, we made adjustments to Operator's FCC Form 393 filing and we found  S' |$Operator's actual CPST rate to be unreasonable. Because the total amount overcharged was de minimis,  S' |$we did not order Operator to pay refunds. Although Operator did not incur any refund liability, Operator  |$chose to file its Petition, challenging our adjustments to its FCC Form 393. Our review of the record  |$indicates that a resolution of the appeal will have no effect on Operator's refund liability for its CPST.  |$Therefore, in order to conserve Commission resources, we will dismiss Operator's Petition without addressing the merits of Operator's arguments. We will also vacate the stay of our Prior Order.  S'  k7.` ` Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Section 1.106 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. 1.106, that Operator's Petition for Reconsideration IS DISMISSED.  SJ '  k8.` ` IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, pursuant to Section 0.32l of the Commission's rules, 47  |$*C.F.R. 0.321, that the stay granted to Operator in the Matter of Petitions for Stay, DA 96425, 11 FCC Rcd 4196 (1996), IS VACATED. ` `  Ghh}FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION ` `  Ghh}William H.
