After a public utility or common carrier service has been exempted from such requirements, the commission may require such public utility or common carrier to publish and file with the commission tariffs for such service when necessary to protect consumers from fraudulent business practices or practices that are inconsistent with the public interest, convenience and necessity or when the commission otherwise deems necessary.
