Re: Numbering Waiver Request of MClmetro Access Transmission Services Corp.
Dear Ms. Hall:
Pursuant to 47 C.F.R. $ 52.15(g), MClmetro Access Transmission Services Corp. dlblaYerizon
Access Transmission Services ("MClmetro"l) respectfully requests that the Idaho Public Utilities
Commission ("Commission") overturn the Neustar Pooling Administrator's ("PA") denial of
MClmetro's request for a one-thousand block of sequential numbers in the Pocatello, ID rate
center so that MClmetro can fulfill a specific customer request. If the Commission grants the
requested waiver, MClmetro will be able to obtain the contiguous numbering resources required
to serve its customer.
Confidential Attachment A hereto2 is a copy of a letter from MClmetro's customer requesting a
one-thousand block of contiguous numbering resources (with specified NXX limitations) in the
Pocatello, ID rate center. The request is necessary to meet the customer's strategic plan for
centralizing its voice services throughout the country while integrating them within its existing
dial plan. MClmetro cannot satisfy the request with its existing numbering inventory.
On June 14,2018, MClmetro submitted to the PA a "Thousand Block Application Form Part
lA" (Attachment B hereto) seeking 1,000 sequential numbers served by the BOISIDMAXTX
switch within the Pocatello, ID rate center. MClmetro also submitted an accompanying "Months
to Exhaust and Utilization Certification Worksheet - TN Level" (Confidential Attachment C
hereto3). Attachment D is the PA's June 14, 2018 rejection of MClmetro's request for
I MClmetro was formerly known as MClmetro Access Transmission Services LLC. The Commission
acknowledged MClmetro's new name and amended its certificate in a December 6,2016 order in Case No. MCM-
T-03-0r.
2 Confidential Attachment A is being filed confidentially on yellow paper and under seal because it contains
customer-specific confidential information and is competitively sensitive.
3 Confidential Attachment C contains confidential utilization numbers and growth forecast information and is being
filed confidentially on yellow paper and under seal due to the competitively sensitive data it contains.
numbering resources because MClmetro did not meet the necessary months-to-exhaust ("MTE")
and utilization requirements under 47 C.F.R. $ 52.15(g) (less than six MTE andT1%o or more
utilization) to enable the PA to grant the request.
In cases where a service provider is not able to meet a specific customer request with available
numbering inventory, the FCC has determined that state utility commissions have jurisdiction to
grant a waiver pursuant to FCC 0l-362 (December 28,2001), Section tV,9[1[ 51-66. In 1[66
thereof, the FCC recommends that the state utility commission respond within 10 business days
of a waiver request.
MClmetro respectfully requests that the Commission expeditiously approve its request for a
waiver and direct the PA to assign to MClmetro the requested 1,000 sequential numbers within
the Pocatello, ID rate center's BOISIDMAXTX switch so that it can meet its customer's need to
put the numbers in service. The Commission's directive can be emailed or faxed to:
