Staff shall review an application for a certificate of registration within thirty (30) calendar days after filing to determine whether it is complete. If the application is incomplete, staff will return it to the applicant. If the application is complete, the Director of the Utility Division, or his designee, shall issue a certificate of registration if he finds that the applicant is fit to provide intrastate long-distance telecommunications services, and that issuance of the certificate of registration is in the public interest.
