   Dave Teitzel, director of product and marketing services for Qwest, said the company will show that it has met all the 14 points.
   
   A study done in New York and Texas indicates that if a Baby Bell gets into the long-distance market, the resulting competition will give customers savings in both long-distance and local service, Teitzel said.
   
   If the results of that study are extrapolated to South Dakota, it indicates customers in the state could save $16 million a year in long-distance and local telephone services, Teitzel said.
   
   If Qwest gets into the long-distance business, it will have to offer good deals to compete against AT&T, WorldCom, Sprint and other established companies, he said.
   
   Qwest also can attract customers who want to simplify their service by having one company handle local and all long-distance calls, Teitzel said.
   
   "We think customers want that and will find value in that," he said.
   
   Existing long-distance companies probably will get into the local telephone business so they also can offer customers one-stop shopping for all telephone services, Teitzel said.
   
   Competition for both local and long-distance service should increase, which will give South Dakota customers better deals, he said.
   
   Qwest has opened its system to competing local telephone companies, and South Dakota already has competition for local service in areas served by Qwest, Teitzel said.
   
   Black Hills FiberCom serves 22,000 residential and 17,000 business customers, Northern Valley Communications has local customers in the Aberdeen area, and some companies resell local service on Qwest lines, he said.
