The bill amends Section 69-3-805 of the Montana Code Annotated, which governs the registration of telecommunications providers. Key changes include the removal of specific information that providers must submit to the commission when registering, such as details about the provider's operations, affiliated companies, tariffs, and any formal actions against them. Instead, the bill simplifies the registration process by requiring only a notice to be filed with the commission, while also allowing the commission to waive certain requirements.

Additionally, the bill grants the commission the authority to adopt rules to implement these changes effectively. The legislation is designed to streamline the registration process for telecommunications providers in Montana, making it easier for them to operate while still ensuring that necessary oversight is maintained. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
