NOTICE OF PROPOSED AGENCY ACTION
ORDER GRANTING CERTIFICATE OF AUTHORITY
BY THE COMMISSION:
NOTICE 	is 	hereby 	given by 	the 	Florida 	Public 	Service 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.).
Vero Networks ABS, LLC 	(Vero) 	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 Vero has sufficient technical, 	financial, and managerial capability
to provide such 	service. Accordingly, we hereby grant to VERO’S 	Certificate of Authority No.
901 8, which 	shall authorize Vero 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 Vero for payment by January 30th.
Neither 	the 	cancellation of 	its 	certificate nor 	the 	failure 	to receive 	a RAF 	Return 	notice 	shall
relieve Vero from 	its obligation to pay 	its RAF.
