The utility shall file a screen shot of the internet web page and the information and disclaimer required by (c) and (d) below within 30 days of commission approval.

(c) The posting required by (b) above shall consist of a notice providing the following information, as applicable:

(2) The page also is intended to indicate that a utility's competitive energy affiliate has no preferential access to services.
