Re: Docket No.:'
CenturyTel of the Gem State ooa CenturyLink 2015 Federal ETC Fiting
Dear Secretary Jewell:
On November 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 containedin4T 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 utilized by ETCs.
In addition, ETCs with voice service rates that are below the rate floor as specified by the FCCI
must file separately the voice rate information required by 47 C.F.R. $ 54.313(h) by July l.
Attached are the public and confidential versions of the Form 481 and the voice rate information
for CenturyTel of the Gem State - Idaho as filed by Centurylink with the FCC on or before Julyl. The detailed broadband speed availability information at the exchange level provided in
response to 54.313(a)(7) is also confidential. In addition, the access line data provided in
response to 47 C.F.R. $ 54.313(h) is confidential. Centurylink requests this information be
treated as such as provided by State Rule or Protective Order.
t Only ETCs that receive Federal High Cost Loop or High Cost Model Support are required to report residential
basic rates below the rate floor.
Jean D. Jewell, Secretary
June 17,2015

Dear Chairman Manning,
Centurylink valucs its ongoing relationship with the Shoshone-Paiute Tribes and the
opportunities we have had this year to work together to meet the needs ol'CenturyLink's
customers located on I'ribal lands. As we approach the end of another year, Centurylink
would like to extend an opportunit-v to meet to discuss additional issues that may be of
interest to you regarding our services.
In late 201l, the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") initiated steps to reform
and modernize the {bderal universal service suppon system to ensure that robust,
affordable voice and broadband service are available to Americans throughout the nation
including those residing on Tribal lands. I In accord with the FCC's actions, late last year
CenturyLink requested a meeting with representatives of your Tribal
GovernmenlCouncil to discuss the planning and potential deployment of services on
Tribal lands as well as other areas of interest specific to conducting business on your
Tribal lands. The FCC has advised that the following topics be discussed: (l)
deployment planning with a focus on Tribal community anchor institutions; (2) feasibility
and sustainability planning; (3) marketing services on Tribal lands; (4) rights-or-wa)'
processes, land use permitting, facilities siting. environmental and cultural preservation
review process; and (5) Tribal business and licensing requirements.

NOTES:
L.(LLZ) - [118) The Federal Communications Commission in FCC DA 14-59L adopted May \,20L4
and in Connect America Fund et al. WC Docket No. 10-90 et al., Order, 28 FCC Rcd 2051, 2054,para.
I (Wireline Comp. Bur. 2013) (ETC Reporting Requirements Order) waivedthe requirementthat
price cap recipients of frozen support or incremental support file five-year plans stating "until the
[Connect America Phase II forward{ooking] cost model is adopted and incumbents have the
opportunity to accept a state-level commitrnent, it does not serve the public interest." Since the
Connect America Phase II program has not been fully implemented at this time, the five year plan is
not required.
2. (220) Outages are reported using the criteria provided in 47 C.F.R. 554.313, which differs from
the criteria in 47 C.F.R. $4.5 which is the basis for reporting outages to the Federal Communications
Commission. Therefore, some outages may not have N0RS numbers.
3. (300) - (310) CenturyLink is reporting any outstanding requests for voice service from 2014 that
are unfulfilled at the time of this filing.
4. (320) - [330] CenturyLink is reporting any outstanding requests for broadband service from
2014 that are unfulfilled atthe time of this filing.
5. (410) - (420) Complaints per 1,000 voice access lines are reported as complaints to any federal
and/or state agencies.
6.(440) - (450) Complaints per 1,000 broadband customers are repofted as complaints to any
federal and/or state agencies.
7. (7LL) Centurylink 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 768Kor below are not included in this reporl
B. (800), (810)-(813), (1200), and (1210)-(L223) Centurylinkis a designated eligible
telecommunications carrier that receives Universal Service Support for High Cost Areas under 47
C.F,R. 54 subpart D. Therefore, Centurylink is only subiectto subpart (a) of 47 C.F.R, S54.422 asit
applies to this filing.
9. (810) - [813) Per FCC DALS-L707 releasedAugust 6, 2013, CenturyLinkis reportingholding
company, operating companieq and afiEliates [as defined under section 3 oft]re Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. S 153(2)) that are designated as eligible telecommunications
carriers and/or that provide retail broadband internet access to end-user customers.
10. (921) - (929) To the extent tle carrier serves federally recognized tribal lands, the attached
narrative, in response to line 920, should be relied on to describe tribal outreach and interaction. If
the carrier at least offered to discuss the points listed in 47 C.F.R. S5a313(a)(9) to the federally
recognized tribes served in a study area, lines 92L-929 were marked with a "yes" response.
11. (1000) - (1010) Carriers must certiffthattheir local rates are at or belowtwo standard
deviations of the applicable national average urban rate for voice service, as specified in the most
recent public notice issued bythe Wireline Competition Bureau and Wireless Telecommunications
Bureau. Qwes! Corporation d/b/a CenturyLink (Wyoming) and United Telephone Company of the
West d/b/a CenturyLink (Wyoming) have certain exchanges with explicit cost based local rates
above this standard. Customers in such exchanges receive a Federal Universal Service credit and/or
a State Universal Service credit explicitly on their bill. This results in a net charge that is lower than
two standard deviations ofthe applicable national average urban rate for voice service.
L2. (2000), (2005), (2010), (?014), and (2016) Per FCC DA 13-2101 released October 30,2073,
Centurylink is certiffing at a holding company level.
13. (2010) The ConnectAmerica Fund Incremental Support program [Round 1) requires
participating carriers to deploy broadband services at certain speeds to locations within certain
timeframes. The FCC recognized in DA 12-1155 released on fuly L8,Z0Lz,that carriers may run
into practical obstacles that would make it difficult to deploy broadband to the locations that were
in tlre carrier's original deployment plan, and therefore may deploy to eligible locations not
identified in the deployment plan. Centurylink companies participating in the Connect America
Fund Incremental Support program (Round 1) experienced the practical obstacles the FCC
anticipated and therefore deployed broadband to a substantial number of locations that are not
listed in tle notice of acceptance filed with the FCC on fuly 24,20L2. CenturyLinkwill identiff
locations where deployment has occurred in a separate and/or subsequent filing.
14. (3000)-(3034) These questions are not applicable. This company is considered to be a Federal
Price Cap Carrier or an affiliate associated with a Federal Price Cap Carrier for the purposes of this
filing.
