1Opinion of the Court

NEBEKER, Associate Judge:

In this appeal the District of Columbia challenges the trial court’s grant of summary judgment to the Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company (C & P). The District asserts that the trial court erred in concluding that the gross receipts C & P receives from various competitive long-distance telephone common carriers for providing exchange access to local customers are nontaxable because such gross receipts are not “from the sale of public utility commodities and services_” D.C.Code ■§ 47-2507 (1986 Supp.). We affirm the ruling of the trial court.
