On February 7 the California Public Utilities Commision (CPUC) approved the Knowledge Network ISDN access rate for K-12 schools. The rate is $40.00 per month per line for unlimited local and Zone 3 usage plus the cost of their ISDN access line. This means that calls up to 16 miles will be covered by a $40.00 flat usage rate. Certain terms and conditions apply.
