PRICE LIST FORMAT
A. Page Numbering - Page numbers appear in the upper right comer of the page. Pages are numbered
sequentially. However, new pages are occasionally added to the price list. When a new page is added between
pages already in effect, a decimal is added. For example, a new page added between pages 14 and 15 would be
14.
B. Page Revision Numbers - Revision numbers also appear in the upper right comer of each page. These
numbers are used to determine the most current page version on file with the Commission. For example, the
4th revised Page 14 cancels the 3rd revised Page 14. Because of various suspension periods, deferrals, etc., the
most current page number on file with the Commission is not always the price list page in effect. Consult the
Check Sheet for the page currently in effect.
C. Paragraph Numbering Sequence - There are nine levels of paragraph coding. Each level of coding is
subservient to its next higher level:
1.1.
1. LA.
1.1.A.
(a).
(a).
(a).I.(i).
(a).I.(i).(l ).
D. Check Sheets - When a price list filing is made with the Commission, an updated Check Sheet
accompanies the price list filing. The Check Sheet lists the pages contained in the price list, with a cross
reference to the current revision number. When new pages are added, the Check Sheet is changed to reflect the
revision. All revisions made in a given filing are designated by an asterisk (*). There will be no other symbols
used on this page if these are the only changes made to it (i., the format, etc. remain the same, just revised
revision levels on some pages.) The price list user should refer to the latest Check Sheet to find out if a
particular page is the most current on file with the Commission.

(T)
To the extent that either the Company or any other telephone company exercises

1.4 Liability of the Company
The included tariff language does not constitute a determination by the Commission
that a limitation of liability imposed by the Company should be upheld in a court of
law. Acceptance for filing by the Commission recognizes that it is a court'
responsibility to adjudicate negligence and consequential damage claims. It is also
the court's responsibility to determine the validity of the exculpatory clause.
The provisions of this section of this rule do not apply to errors and omissions caused
by willful misconduct, fraudulent conduct or violations of laws by the Company.
In the event an error or omission is caused by the gross negligence of the Company,
the liability of the Company shall be limited to and in no event exceed the sum of
$10 000.
Except as provided in Paragraphs (A) and (B) of this Rule, the liability of the
Company for damages arising out of mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays, errors
or defects in any of the services or private line, alphabetical directory listings
(excluding the use of bold type), and all other services shall in no event exceed an
amount equal to the pro rata charges to the Customer for the periods during which the
services or facilities area affected by the mistake, omission, interruption, delay, error
or defect, provided, however, that where any mistake, omission, interruption, delay,
error or defect of anyone service or facility affects or diminishes the value of any
other service, said liability shall include such diminution, but in no event shall exceed
the total amount of the charges to the Customer for all services or facilities for the
period affected by the mistake, omission, interruption, delay, error or defect.
The Company shall not be liable for errors in transmitting, receiving or delivering
oral messages by telephone over the lines of the Company and connecting utilities.
The Company shall have the right to make necessary repairs or changes in its
facilities at any time and will have the right to suspend or interrupt service
temporarily for the purpose of making the necessary repairs or changes in its system.
When such suspension or interruption of service for any appreciable period is
necessary, the Utility will give the customers who may be affected as reasonable
notice thereof as circumstances will permit, and will prosecute the work with
reasonable diligence, and, if practicable, at times that will cause the least
InconvenIence.

in (A), preceding, the Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
Company from and against all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, for (1) any loss, destruction or damage

mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays errors or other defects or

way to the occurrence of the damages, unless such damages were caused solely by

any act or omission of the Company. Nothing in this tariff is intended either to limit

restore service within sixteen (16) hours after the report of the outage if the
Customer notifies the Company that the service outage creates an emergency
for the Customer, or

equipment or inside wire, the Company is not required to provide to that Customer
the credit referred to in Subsection 503.01.

Call Timing for Usage Sensitive Services
Where charges for a service are specified based on the duration of use, such as the duration of a
telephone call, the following rules apply:
Calls are measured in durational increments identified for each service. All calls which are
fractions of a measurement increment are rounded-up to the next whole unit.
Timing on completed calls begins when the call is answered by the called party. Answering is
determined by hardware answer supervision in all cases where this signaling is provided by
the terminating local carrier and any intermediate carrieres).
Timing terminates on all calls when the calling party hangs up or the Company s network
receives an off-hook signal from the terminating carrier.
All times refer to local time.

Non-Published Service
General
Non-published service means that the Customer s telephone number is not listed in the
directory, nor does it appear in the Company s Directory Assistance Records.
Regulations
This service is subject to the rules and regulations for E911 service, where applicable. The
Company will complete calls to a non-published number only when the caller dials direct or
gives the operator the number. No exceptions will be made, even if the caller says it is an
emergency.
When the Company agrees to keep a number unpublished, it does so without any obligation.
Except for cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Company is not liable for any
damages that might arise from publishing a non-published number in the directory or
disclosing it to some. If, in error, the telephone number is published in the directory, the
Company s only obligation is to credit or refund any monthly charges the Customer paid for
non-published service.
The subscriber indemnifies (i., promises to reimburse the Company for any amount the
Company must pay as a result of) and hold the Company harmless against any and all claims
for damages caused or claimed to have been caused, directly or indirectly, by the publication
of a non-published service or the disclosing of said number to any person.
The included tariff language does not constitute a determination by the Commission that a
limitation of liability imposed by the Company should be upheld in a court of law.
Acceptance for filing by the Commission recognizes that it is a court's responsibility to
adjudicate negligence and consequential damage claims. It is also the court's responsibility todetermine the validity of the exculpatory clause. Idaho Public Utilities Commission
