AUGUSTA, Maine --Maine's consumer advocate wants two telecommunications
companies to restructure their proposed sales agreement to reduce the
cost by $600 million in an effort to make the planned new entity more
financially viable.

FairPoint Communications Inc. of North Carolina proposes buying Verizon
Communications Inc.'s landline business in northern New England for
$2.7 billion.
A lower price is one of 23 conditions that Maine Public Advocate
Richard Davies says should be imposed by the Maine Public Utilities
Commission before the acquisition is approved.
