Re: Qwest Corporation dba CenturyLink QC (northern ldaho) 2014 Federal ETC
Filing and Annual Recertification
Dear Ms. Jewell:
On Novernber 18, 2011 the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") released its
USF/ICC Transformation Order in WC Docket No. 10-90 et al. With that Order, the
FCC began a transition to a national framework for certification of Eligible
Telecommunications Carriers ("ETCs") and set forth a standard set of information that all
ETCs must file with the FCC by July l't of each year. The Order also required ETCs to
provide the same information to the respective state commissions.
The annual ETC reporting requirements are contained in 47 C.F.R. $ 54.313 of the FCC's
rules. For the reporting of the data and certifications required by 47 C.F.R. $ 54.313 and
54.422, the FCC has developed a reporting template, Form 481, to be used by ETCs.
Attached is the public version of the Form 481 for CenturyLink QC (northern Idaho) as
filed with the FCC. A confidential version of the Form 481 is provided under seal and
with an Attorney's Certificate. The outage information and the detailed broadband speed
availability information at the exchange level provided in response to 54.313(a)(7) is
confidential. CenturyLink requests this information be treated as confidential pursuant to
Rule 67 of the Commission's Procedural Rules.
In addition to the FCC Form 481, CenturyLink QC also includes the Affidavit of David D.
Cole, Executive Vice President of Operations Support and Controller, certiffing the
compliance of CenturyLink QC (northern Idaho) with service quality and customer
protection requirernents, its ability to remain functional in emergencies, and its proper use
of federal high-cost support.
CenturyLink QC (northern Idaho) hereby requests that the ldaho Public Utilities
Commission by October 1,2014, certify to the FCC, pursuant to 47 C.F.R $ 54.314 that
the Company is in compliance with section254(e) of the Telecommunications Act and 47
C.F.R. $ 54.314 in order for CenturyLink QC to continue receiving Federal high cost
support in northern Idaho.
Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions regarding this filing.

<1210> Terms & Conditions of Voice Telephony [ifeline Plans
CenturyLink has over 100 localexchange caniers (LECs) that serve as eligible
telecommunications carriers (ETCs) providing Lifeline discounts on local telephone service for
qualifying low-income customers in thirty-seven states. Each LEC's localtariff contains the
terms and conditions of voice telephony service plans generally available to CenturyLink
residential customers. Lifeline provides discounts on CenturyLink residential service plans that

initiation fee at a primary residence.
CenturyLink's flat-rated residential service plans provide unlimited local calling. Lffeline

local minutes or calls at a flat-rate and then have additional charges for minutes or calls beyond
those included in the plan. Lifeline discounts may be applied to bundled seruice packages that
include voice telephony services, such as bundles with internet service and/or video service.
Lifeline discounts may also apply to voice service plans that include optional calling features
such as caller lD, callwaiting, and voicemail.

NOTES:
L. (tl2l - (118)The Federal Cornmunications Commisslon in FCC DA 14-591adopted May ! 2014
waived the requirement that price cap reciplents of frozen support or incremental support file five-year
plans byJuly L,20t4.
2. l220l Outages are reported using the criteria provided in 47 C.F.R. 554.313, which differs from the
criteria ln 47 C.F.R. S4.5 which is the basis for reporting outages to the Federal Communications
Commission. Therefore, some outages may not have NORS numbers.
3. (300) - (310) CenturyLink is reporting any outstanding requests for voice service from 2013 that are
unfulfilled at the time of this filing.
4. (320) - (330) CenturyLlnk is reporting any outstandinB requests for broadband service from 2013 that
are unfulfilled at the tlme of this fillng.
5. (410 - 420) Complaints per 1,0(X) voice access lines are reported as complaints to any federal and/or
state agencies.
5. (440 - 450) Complaints per 1,000 broadband customers are reported as complalnts to any federal
and/or state agencies.
7. (7t1) C.enturyLink is reporting a-la-cart and data only broadband rates that meet or exceed both the
required download speeds of four mega bits per second and upload speeds of one mega bit per second.
Widely used upload speeds of 768K or below are not included in this report.
8. (811) - (813) Per FCC DALS-1707 released August 6,2OL3, CenturyLink is reporting holding company,
operating companies, affiliates (as defined under section 3 of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 5 153(2)) that are designated as eligible telecornmunications carriers and/or that
provide retail broadband internet access to end-user ctstomers.
9. (921) - (929) To the extent the carrier serves federally recognized tribal lands, the attached narrative,
in response to tlne 920, should be relied on to describe trlbal outreach and interaction. lf the carrler
offered to discuss the points listed in 47 C.F.R. 55aJti}(aXg) to at least a majority of federally
recognized tribes served in a study area, lines 92L-929 were marked with a "yes" response.
10. (1000) - (1010) Carriers must certifo that their local rates are at or below two standard deviations of
the applicable national average urban rate for voice service, as specified in the most recent public notice
issued by the Wireline Competition Bureau and Wireless Telecommunications Bureau. Qwest
Corporation d/b/a CenturyLink (Wyoming) and United Telephone Company of the West d/b/a
CenturyLink (Wyoming) have certain exchanges wlth explicit cost based local rates above thls standard.
Customers in such exchanges receive a Federal Universal Service credit and/or a State UniversalService
credit explicitly on their bill. This results in a net charge that is lower than two standard deviations of the
applicable national average urban rate forvoice service.
11. (2000), (2005), (2013), and (2016) Per FCC DA 13-2101 released October 30, 2013, CenturyLink ls
certfiing at a holding company level.
12. (300G3026) This is not appllcable to this company as lt ls considered to be a Federal Prlce Cap
Carrier or an affillate associated wlth a Federal Price Cap Grrier for the purposes of thls filing.
