This computation shall be performed for each end office the customer wishes to serve. These determinations thus establish the forecasted BHMC for each end office. BHMCs are differentiated by type and directionality of traffic carried over a Switched Access Service arrangement. Differentiation of traffic among BHMC types is necessary for the Telephone Company to properly design Switched Access Service to meet the traffic carrying capacity requirement of the customer. There are two major BHMC categories identified as Originating and Terminating. Originating BHMCs represent access capacity within a LATA for carrying traffic from the end user to the customer; Terminating BHMCs represent access capacity within a LATA for carrying traffic from the customer to the end user. When ordering capacity for FGC Access or FGD Access, the customer must at a minimum specify such access capacity in terms of Originating BHMCs and/or Terminating BHMCs. Because some customers will wish to further segregate their originating traffic into separate trunk groups, Originating BHMCs are further categorized into Domestic, 800, 900, Operator, and IDDD. Domestic BHMCs represent access capacity for carrying only domestic traffic other than 800, 900 and Operator traffic; IDDD BHMCs represent access capacity for carrying only international traffic; and, 800, 900 and Operator BHMCs represent access capacity for carrying, respectively, only 800, 900 or Operator traffic. When ordering such types of access capacity, the customer must specify Domestic, 800, 900, Operator or IDDD BHMCs. , Issued: January 26, 2007 Effective: March 1, 2007 Citizens Telecommunications Company 180 South Clinton Avenue Rochester, NY 14646 Idaho Public Utilities Commission Office of the Secretary ACCEPTED FOR FILING March 1, 2007 Boise, Idaho Citizens Telecommunications Company of Idaho Idaho Price List Original Page 108 ACCESS SERVICE 5.

Mileage is shown in 7.4 following in terms of mileage bands. To determine the rate to be billed, first compute the mileage using the V&H coordinates method, as set forth in Section 14 of this Price List, then find the band into which the computed mileage falls and apply the rate shown for that band. When the calculation results in a fraction of a mile, always round up to the next whole mile before determining the mileage band and applying the rates. When hubs are involved, mileage is computed and rates applied separately for each of the Circuit Mileage, i.e., customer designated premises serving wire center to hub, hub to hub and/or hub to customer designated premises serving wire center. However, when any service is routed though a hub for purposes other than customer specified bridging or multiplexing (e.g., the Telephone Company chooses to so route for test access purposes), rates will be applied only to the distance calculated between the serving wire centers associated with the customer designated premises. When more than one Telephone Company is involved in the provision of Special Access Service, the mileage for the Circuit Mileage rate element for each Telephone Company is calculated as set forth in Section 2.4.7(A)(3)(b) preceding.

SPECIAL ACCESS SERVICE (Cont'd) 7.3 Rate Regulations (Cont'd) 7.3.5 Facility Hubs A customer has the option of ordering Voice Grade facilities or analog or digital high capacity facilities (i.e., Group, Supergroup, Mastergroup, DS1, DS1C, DS2, DS3 or DS4) to a facility hub for channelizing to individual services requiring lower capacity facilities (e.g., Telegraph, Voice, Program Audio, etc.). Different locations may be designated as hubs for different facility capacities, e.g., multiplexing from digital to digital may occur at one location, while mutliplexing from digital to analog may occur at a different location. When placing an Access Order the customer will specify the desired hub. Section 14 of this Price List identifies serving wire centers, hub locations and the type of multiplexing functions available. Some of the types of multiplexing available include the following: - from higher to lower bit rate - from higher to lower bandwidth - from digital to voice frequency circuits End to end services may be provided on circuits of these facilities to a hub. The transmission performance for the end to end service provided between the customer designated premises will be that of the lower capacity or bit rate.

SPECIAL ACCESS SERVICE (Cont'd) 7.3 Rate Regulations (Cont'd) 7.3.5 Facility Hubs (Cont'd) frequency circuits, the transmission performance of the channelized services will be Voice Grade, not High Capacity. The Telephone Company will commence billing the monthly rate for the facility to the hub on the date specified by the customer on the Access Order. Individual services utilizing these facilities may be installed coincident with the installation of the facility to the hub or may be ordered and/or installed at a later date, at the option of the customer. The customer will be billed for a Voice Grade or a High Capacity analog or digital Circuit Termination, Circuit Mileage (when applicable), and the multiplexer at the time the facility is installed. Individual service rates (by service type) will apply for a Circuit Termination and additional Circuit Mileage (as required) for each channelized service. These will be billed to the customer as each individual service is installed. Cascading multiplexing occurs when a high capacity analog or digital circuit is de-multiplexed to provide circuits with a lesser capacity and one of the lesser capacity circuits is further de-multiplexed. For example, a Supergroup facility is de-multiplexed to five Group facilities and then one of the Group facilities is further de-multiplexed to individual Voice Grade circuits.

The Telephone Company will notify the customer six months in advance of the expiration date of each ten-year liability period. The customer must provide the Telephone Company with written notification at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the liability period if termination is elected. Failure to do so will result in an automatic extension of the special construction case to the next liability period at the filed Maximum Termination Liability amount. A Termination Charge may apply when all services using specially constructed facilities that have a Price Listed Maximum Termination Liability are discontinued prior to the expiration of the liability period. The charge reflects the unamortized portion of the nonrecoverable costs at the time of termination, adjusted for net salvage and possible reuse.

A Termination Charge may never exceed the filed Maximum Termination Liability. A partial termination of specially constructed facilities will be provided, at the election of the customer. The amount of the Termination Charge associated with such partial termination is determined by multiplying the termination charge which would result if all services using the specially constructed facilities were discontinued, at the time partial termination is elected, by the percentage of specially constructed facilities to be partially terminated.

(3) Annual Underutilization Liability and Underutilization Charge Prior to the start of special construction, the Telephone Company and the customer will agree on the quantity of facilities to be provided, and the length of the planning period during which the customer expects to place the facilities in service. The planning period is hereinafter referred to as the Initial Liability Period (ILP). The ILP is listed in the Price List with an effective and expiration date.

An annual underutilization liability amount is filed on a per unit basis (e.g., per cable pair) for each case of special construction. This amount is equal to the annual per unit cost and includes depreciation, maintenance, administration, return, taxes and any other costs identified in the supporting documentation provided at the time the special construction case is filed. Upon the expiration of the ILP, the number of underutilized facilities, if any, is multiplied by the annual underutilization liability amount. This product is then multiplied by the number of years (including any fraction thereof) in the ILP to determine the underutilization charge.

Example: A customer orders 100 services and the special construction of a 600 pair building riser cable is agreed to, based on the customer's 5-year facility requirements. The ILP, in this example, would be filed at 5 years. The annual underutilization liability is filed at $2.00 per pair. If 400 pairs were in service at the end of the ILP, there would be an underutilization of 20 pairs, i.e., 420 (70% of 600) - 400 = 20. The total underutilization charge for the first 5 years would be $200.00, or $2.00 per pair x 20 pairs x 5 years. If 420 pairs are in service at the end of the sixth year, there is no underutilization, i.e., 420 - 420 = 0.
