Posted: Wednesday, April 10, 2013
The
South Dakota Public Utilities Commission
heard arguments in a telecommunications dispute involving the
Crow Creek Sioux Tribe
.
The tribe authorized
Native American Telecom
to do business on the reservation. The company began engaging in a practice known as traffic pumping, drawing a complaint from
Sprint
.
The
Federal Communications Commission
considers the practice to be legal but Sprint was charged high fees because the traffic was directed through the reservation.
Sprint wants the state commission to bar Native American Telecom from operating within South Dakota.
