NOTICE OF PROPOSED AGENCY ACTION
ORDER GRANTING CERTIFICATE OF AUTHORITY
BY THE COMMISSION:
NOTICE 	is hereby given by 	the Florida Public Service Commission (Commission) 	that
the action discussed herein 	is preliminary in nature and will become 	final unless a person whose
interests 	are 	substantially affected 	files a petition 	for a formal proceeding, pursuant 	to Rule 25-
22.029, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.).
GW Operating, LLC (GW Operating) applied 	for a 	Certificate of Authority 	to provide
telecommunications service, pursuant to Section 364.335, Florida Statutes (F.S.). Upon review of
the application, 	it appears 	that GW Operating has 	sufficient 	technical, financial, and managerial
capability to provide such 	service. Accordingly, we hereby grant to GW Operating Certificate of
Authority No. 9012 which 	shall authorize GW Operating to provide telecommunications service
throughout the State of Florida.
Telecommunications 	service 	providers 	are 	required 	to 	comply 	with 	all 	applicable
provisions of Chapter 364, F.S., and Chapter 25-4, F.A.C.
In addition, under Section 364.336, 	F.S., 	certificate holders must pay a minimum annual
Regulatory Assessment Fee (RAF) if the certificate was active during any portion of the calendar
year. A RAF 	return 	notice 	will be mailed each December 	to GW Operating 	for payment by
January 	30th. Neither 	the cancellation of 	its 	certificate nor 	the 	failure 	to receive a RAF return
notice shall relieve GW Operating from its obligation to pay 	its RAF.
In re: Application for certificate to provide
local telecommunications service by GW
Operating, LLC._
