Act of 1934, as amended by the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Act"
Section 252(e)(2) of the Act directs that a state Commission may reject an amendment
reached through voluntary negotiations only if the Commission finds that: the amendment (or
portiones) thereof) discriminates against a telecommunications carrier not a party to this
agreement; or the implementation of such an amendment (or portion) is not consistent with the
public interest, convenience and necessity.
Qwest respectfully submits this Amendment provides no basis for either of these
findings, and, therefore requests that the Commission approve this Amendment expeditiously.
This Amendment is consistent with the public interest as identified in the pro-competitive

Cingular to interconnect with Qwest facilities and to provide customers with increased choices
among local telecommunications services.
Qwest further requests that the Commission approve this Amendment without a hearing.
Because this Amendment was reached through voluntary negotiations, it does not raise issues
requiring a hearing and does not concern other parties not a party to the negotiations.
Expeditious approval would further the public interest.

COLLOCATION
Section 1.0 - DEFINITIONS
Collocation - Point of Interconnection" or "POI" is the point outside Owest's Wire Center where
WSP's fiber facility meets Owest's Fiber Entrance Facility, except where WSP uses an Express
Fiber Entrance Facility. In either case, Owest will extend or run the Fiber Entrance Facility to
WSP's Collocation Space.
Day" means calendar days unless otherwise specified.
Demarcation Point" means the point where Owest owned or controlled facilities cease, and WSP
End User Customer, premises owner or landlord ownership or control of facilities begin.
Due Date" means the specific date on which the requested service is to be available to the WSP
or to WSP's End User Customer, as applicable.
Firm Order Confirmation " or "FOC" means the notice Owest provides to WSP to confirm that the
WSP Local Service Order (LSR) has been received and has been successfully processed. The
FOC confirms the schedule of dates committed to by Owest for the Provisioning of the service
requested.
Premises" refers to Owest's Central Offices and Serving Wire Centers; all buildings or similar
structures owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by Owest that house its network facilities; all
structures that house Owest facilities on public rights-of-way, including but not limited to vaults
containing Loop Concentrators or similar structures; and all land owned, leased, or otherwise
controlled by Owest that is adjacent to these Central Offices, Wire Centers, buildings and
structures.
Product Catalog " or "PCAT" is a Owest document that provides information needed to request
services available under this Agreement Owest agrees that WSP shall not be held to the
requirements of the PCAT. The PCAT is available on Owest's Web site:
http://www.awestcom/whoiesale/pcat/wireless.htmi
Ready for Service" or "RFS" - A Collocation job is considered to be Ready for Service when
Owest has completed all operational work in accordance with WSP Application and makes
functional space available to WSP. Such work includes, but is not necessarily limited to:
power (fuses available, Battery Distribution Fuse Board (BDFB) is powered, and cables between
WSP and power are terminated), cage enclosures, primary AC outlet, cable racking, and circuit
terminations (e., fiber jumpers are placed between the outside plant fiber distribution panel and
the Central Office fiber distribution panel serving WSP) and APOT/CFA are complete, telephone
service, and other services and facilities ordered by WSP for Provisioning by the RFS date.
Technically Feasible" Interconnection , access to Unbundled Network Elements , Collocation , and
other methods of achieving Interconnection or access to unbundled Network Elements at a point
in the network shall be deemed Technically Feasible absent technical or operational concerns
that prevent the fulfillment of a request by a Telecommunications Carrier for such Interconnection
access, or methods. A determination of technical feasibility does not include consideration of
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/ID
WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-030417 -0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
economic, accounting, Billing, space, or site concerns, except that space and site concerns may
be considered in circumstances where there is no possibility of expanding the space available.
The fact that an incumbent LEC must modify its facilities or equipment to respond to such request
does not determine whether satisfying such request is Technically Feasible. An incumbent LEC
that claims that it cannot satisfy such request because of adverse network reliability impacts must
prove to the Commission by clear and convincing evidence that such Interconnection, access, or
methods would result in specific and significant adverse network reliability impacts.
Section 2.0 - TYPE 2 WIRELESS COLLOCATION
Description
Wireless Type 2 Collocation allows for the placing of equipment by Wireless
Service Provider (WSP) at Owest's Premises, where Technically Feasible, that is necessary for
Interconnection with Owest under a local Type 2 arrangement. Wireless Type 2 Collocation
includes the leasing to WSP of physical space in Owest Premises, as well as the resources
necessary for the operation and economical use of collocated equipment, such as the use by
WSP of power; heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HV AC); and cabling in Qwest's Premises.
There are currently five (5 standard types of Wireless Type 2 Collocation available pursuant to
this Amendment - Virtual , Caged Physical, Shared Caged Physical , Cageless Physical
Interconnection Distribution Frame. Other types of Wireless Type 2 Collocation may be
requested through the BFA process.
Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation -- A Virtual Wireless Type 2
Collocation arrangement requires WSP to purchase and deliver to Owest WSP's own
equipment for Owest to install , repair, and maintain in Owest's Premises. WSP does not
have physical access to its virtually collocated equipment in the Owest Premises.
Caged Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation -- allows WSP to lease caged
floor space for placement of its equipment within Qwest's Premises for the purpose of
Interconnection. WSP is responsible for the procurement, installation and on-going
maintenance of its equipment as well as the Cross Connections required within the cage.
Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation -- is a non-caged area
within a Owest Premises. In Wire Centers, space will be made available in single frame
bay increments. In Wire Centers, the current minimum square footage is nine (9) square
feet per bay, however, if smaller bays are or become available , Owest will reduce the
minimum square footage accordingly. Space will be provided utilizing industry standard
equipment bay configurations in which WSP can place and maintain its own equipment.
WSP is responsible for the procurement, installation and on-going maintenance of its
equipment as well as the Cross Connections required within WSP's leased Wireless Type
2 Collocation space.1.4 Shared Caged Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation -- allows two (2) or
more WSPs to share or sublease a single Wireless Type 2 Collocation enclosure. Under
Shared Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation , one (1) WSP obtains a Caged Physical
Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangement from Owest pursuant to this Amendment or an
approved Interconnection Agreement, and another WSP, pursuant to the terms of its
Interconnection Agreement, may share use of that space , in accordance to terms and
conditions of a sublease agreement between the two (2) WSPs. Shared Wireless Type 2
Collocation may also be established through joint Application by WSPs in which Qwest will
have a separate Billing relationship with each applicant and will look to each collocating
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/I 0
WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-030417 -0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
WSP for payment of its proportionate share of the charges relating to the Wireless Type 2
Collocation space. Owest will prorate the charge for site conditioning and preparation
undertaken by Owest to construct the Shared Wireless Type 2 Collocation cage or
condition the space for Wireless Type 2 Collocation use, regardless of how many Carriers
actually collocate in that cage, by determining the total charge for site preparation and
allocating that charge to a collocating WSP (and billed directly to each such WSP) based
on the percentage of the total space utilized by that WSP as per the Wireless Type 2
Collocation Application. Owest shall not place unreasonable restrictions on WSP's use of
a Wireless Type 2 Collocation cage, such as limiting WSP's ability to contract with other
WSPs to share WSP's Wireless Type 2 Collocation cage in a sublease-type arrangement.
In addition, if two (2) or more WSPs who have Interconnection Agreements with Owest
utilize a Shared Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangement, Owest shall permit each WSP
to provision service from that Shared Wireless Type 2 Collocation space , regardless of
which WSP was the original collocator, directly from Owest. Owest shall make Shared
Wireless Type 2 Collocation space available in single-bay increments or their equivalent.
Interconnection Distribution Frame (ICDF) Wireless Type 2 Collocation --
is offered for the purpose of facilitating WSP's interconnecting with Owest under a local
Type 2 arrangement. Under ICDF Wireless Type 2 Collocation, WSP need not collocate
equipment in the Owest Wire Center. With ICDF Wireless Type 2 Collocation , WSP will
have access to the Owest Wire Center and an ICDF for Interconnection with Owest under
a local Type 2 arrangement,. The ICDF connects through tie cables to various points
within the Wire Center (e., MDF, COSMICTM or DSX, etc.) providing WSP with access to
ancillary services.
The ICDF is a distribution frame shared by multiple providers. If
WSP desires a dedicated distribution frame for the purpose of Interconnection with
Owest under a local Type 2 local arrangement, WSP may do so through the
placement of a WSP-owned Cross Connection device collocated in the Owest Wire
Center through either Caged or Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation.
Terms and Conditions
Terms and Conditions - All Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Owest shall provide Wireless Type 2 Collocation on rates, terms and
conditions that are just, reasonable and nondiscriminatory. In addition , Owest shall
provide Wireless Type 2 Collocation in accordance with all applicable federal and state
laws.
Wireless Type 2 Collocation of Switching Equipment. WSP may collocate
any equipment that is necessary for Interconnection with Owest under a local Type 2
arrangement.
Before any equipment that includes switching functionality is
installed WSP must provide a written inventory to Owest of all switching
equipment and how it will be used for Interconnection with Owest under a local
Type 2 arrangement. Once WSP establishes that it will use a certain type of
equipment for Interconnection with Owest under local Type 2 arrangement
Owest will allow future Wireless Type 2 Collocations of similar equipment without
requesting a written justification unless and until Owest can establish to the state
Commission that such equipment is not intended for Interconnection with Owest
under a local Type 2 arrangement. However, Owest will complete the Wireless
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/ID
WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-O30417 -0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
Type 2 Collocation within the appropriate interval unless granted relief by the
Commission.2.4 WSP may not collocate equipment that is not necessary for
Interconnection with Owest under a local Type 2 arrangement.
WSP must identify what transmission and Cross Connection equipment
will be installed and the vendor technical specifications of such equipment so that Owest
may verify the appropriate power, floor loading, heat release, environmental particulate
level , HV AC, and tie cables to WSP-provided Cross Connection device.1.4 Demarcation points for ancillary services. The Demarcation Point for
ancillary services is that physical point where Owest shall terminate its ancillary services
for access by WSP. There are two (2) standard Demarcation Points where ancillary
services may be delivered to WSP. WSP shall specify its choice of standard Demarcation
Points for its access to ancillary services. One available Demarcation Point is at WSP-
provided Cross Connection equipment in WSP's Physical or Virtual Wireless Type 2
Collocation space. Alternatively, the Demarcation Point can be at an Interconnection
Distribution Frame (ICDF) or may be established at a location jointly agreed to by WSP
and Owest. To the extent WSP selects a Demarcation Point outside of its collocated
space, WSP shall provide and Owest shall install the tie cables from WSP's collocated
equipment to the Demarcation Point. Alternatively, Owest shall provide and install these
tie cables, at WSP's expense.
Owest will provide a connection between ancillary services and a
Demarcation Point. Such connection is an Interconnection Tie Pair (ITP). The
Demarcation Point shall be:a) at WSP-provided Cross Connection equipment located in WSP's Virtual
or Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation space; orb) if WSP elects to use ICDF Wireless Type 2 Collocation , at the
Interconnection Distribution Frame ,(ICDF); orc) if WSP elects to use an ICDF in association with Virtual or Physical
Wireless Type 2 Collocation , at the ICDF; ord) at a direct connection point of termination as described in Section
11.2; ore) at another Demarcation Point mutually-agreed to by the Parties.
All equipment shall meet and be installed in accordance with Network
Equipment Building System (NEBS) Level 1 safety standards. Owest shall provide
standard Premises alarming pursuant to Owest Technical Publication 77385. Owest shall
not impose safety or engineering requirements on WSP that are more stringent than the
safety or engineering requirements Owest imposes on its own equipment located on its
Premises.

c) any modifications in the use of the space since the last report;d) measures that Qwest is taking to make additional space available for
Wireless Type 2 Collocation;e) whether sufficient power is available to meet the specific WSP request;f) number of WSPs in queue at the Premises, if any;
g)
whether the Wire Center is equipped with DS3 capability; andh) the number and description of Qwest and its Affiliates and reservations of
space by all WSPs.
A Space Availability Report Charge in Exhibit A will apply to each
Space Availability Report requested by WSP and shall apply on per Premises
basis.10 Wireless Type 2 Collocation is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Requests for Wireless Type 2 Collocation may be denied due to the legitimate lack of
sufficient space in a Qwest Premises for placement of WSP's equipment. If Qwest
determines that the amount of space requested by WSP for Caged Physical Wireless
Type 2 Collocation is not available, but a lesser amount of space is available, that lesser
amount of space will be offered to WSP for Caged Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation.
Alternatively, WSP will be offered Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation (single
frame bay increments), or Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation as an alternative to Caged
Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation. In the event the original Wireless Type 2
Collocation request is not available due to lack of sufficient space, and WSP did not
specify an alternative form of Wireless Type 2 Collocation on the original order form , WSP
will be required to submit a new order for WSP's preferred alternative Wireless Type 2
Collocation arrangement. If WSP identifies alternate choices for Wireless Type 2
Collocation on its original Wireless Type 2 Collocation request , Qwest will determine the
feasibility of the next preferred option in the event WSP's first choice is not available. To
the extent possible, Qwest shall make contiguous space available to WSP when it seeks
to expand its existing Wireless Type 2 Collocation space. Where adjoining space is not
available, Qwest will engineer a route for WSP to provide facilities between the non-
adjoining WSP Wireless Type 2 Collocation spaces as part of the Wireless Type 2
Collocation order. When planning renovations of existing facilities or constructing or
leasing new facilities, Qwest shall take into account projected demand for Wireless Type 2
Collocation of equipment.
10.Space Denial Queue - Qwest will maintain a list of denied
Wireless Type 2 Collocation requests, in order of the date of receipt (Space Denial
Queue), for each Premises where Qwest has exhausted Wireless Type 2
Collocation space. A separate queue will be maintained for each Premises. When
space becomes available in a Premises in which a queue has developed , Qwest
will inform WSPs in the queue that space for Wireless Type 2 Collocation has
become available. If there is insufficient space to accommodate all of the WSPs in
queue, Qwest shall notify WSPs of the availability of space in accordance with the
WSP's position in the queue. WSP must respond within ten (10) calendar Days of
receipt of notification from Qwest with a new Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Application. If WSP does not provide a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application
within ten (10) calendar Days of receipt of notification , or if WSP responds that it
no longer requires the Wireless Type 2 Collocation space, WSP shall be removed
from the queue and the available space shall be offered to the next WSP in the
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/ID
WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-O30417-0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
queue. If the space made available to a WSP in the queue is not sufficient to meet
such WSP's needs, such WSP may deny the space that becomes available and
keep its position in the queue.11 If Owest denies a request for Wireless Type 2 Collocation in a Owest
Premises due to space limitations, Owest shall allow WSP representatives to tour the
entire Premises escorted by Owest personnel within ten (10) calendar Days of WSP'
receipt of the denial of space, or a mutually agreed upon date. Owest will review the
detailed floor plans for the Premises with WSP during the tour, including Owest reserved
or optioned space. Such tour shall be without charge to WSP. If, after the tour of the
Premises , Owest and WSP disagree about whether space limitations at the Premises
make Wireless Type 2 Collocation impractical, Owest and WSP may present their
arguments to the Commission. In addition, if after the fact it is determined that Owest has
incorrectly identified the space limitations , Owest will honor the original Wireless Type 2
Collocation Application date for determining RFS unless both Parties agree to a revised
date.12 Owest shall submit to the Commission, subject to any protective order as
the Commission may deem necessary, detailed floor plans or diagrams of any Premises
where Owest claims that Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation is not practical because of
space limitations.13 Owest will maintain a publicly available document, posted for viewing on
the Internet, (www.qwestcom/wholesale/notices/colio/spaceavaiLhtml), indicating all
Premises that are full , and will update this document within ten (10) calendar Days of the
date at which a Premises runs out of physical space and will update the document within
ten (10) calendar Days of the date that space becomes available. In addition , the publicly
available document shall include , based on information Owest develops through the
Space Availability Report process, the Reservation Process, or the Feasibility Study
Process:a) Number of WSPs in queue at the Premises, if any;b) Premises that have not been equipped with DS3 capability;c) Estimated date for completion of power equipment additions that will lift
the restriction of Wireless Type 2 Collocation at the Premises; and
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owest web site will list and update within the ten (10)
Day period, all Wire Centers that are full , whether or not there has been a Space
Availability Report requested by any WSP.14 Reclamation and Reconditioning of Space
14.Reclamation of Space -- Reclamation of space is performed by
Owest removing unused , obsolete Owest equipment to make space for equipment
use. The cost of removal of the obsolete unused equipment shall be borne by
Owest
14.If WSP issues a forecast or reservation for Wireless
Type 2 Collocation , Owest shall use its best judgment to determine
whether it would be appropriate to reclaim space and or equipment
to meet expected Wireless Type 2 Collocation requirements.
14.If WSP issues a Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Application and unused , obsolete equipment must be removed to
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/ID
WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-O30417-0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
provide the requested Wireless Type 2 Collocation, Owest will
affirmatively remove such unused, obsolete equipment as
necessary to fulfill the Wireless Type 2 Collocation request within
the applicable interval set forth in Section 2.4.
14.Reconditioning of Space -- Reconditioning of space is the
remodeling of space for equipment use, such as, but not limited to, adding HVAC.
The Wireless Type 2 Collocation feasibility study will identify whether
reconditioning of space is available and necessary to meet WSP needs for
Wireless Type 2 Collocation. If requested by WSP , Owest will assess the cost of
such reconditioning, provide a quote to WSP for the costs , and upon Acceptance
of quote by WSP, perform the necessary work to recondition the space. For
reconditioned space, WSP is responsible for prorated charges based on the
amount of space requested.15 Cancellation of Wireless Type 2 Collocation Request. WSP may cancel a
Wireless Type 2 Collocation request prior to the completion of the request by Owest by
submitting a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation Application. WSP shall be
responsible for payment of all costs incurred by Owest up to the point when the
cancellation is received. Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation is available for all
Wireless Type 2 Collocations under a particular billing authorization number (BAN) for
which WSP has not received notification of completion from Owest. Cancellation is
offered for all types of Wireless Type 2 Collocation. A cancellation will only occur upon
request by WSP.
15.WSP may submit a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation
Application if the Wireless Type 2 Collocation job is in progress. Upon receipt of a
completion notice for the specific Wireless Type 2 Collocation job, the Wireless
Type 2 Collocation can no longer be cancelled. Owest will provide
acknowledgment of acceptance or rejection of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Cancellation Application within one (1) business day of receipt. Owest will stop
work on a Wireless Type 2 Collocation in progress 'upon receipt and acceptance of
a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation Application. A request for cancellation
is irrevocable once Owest has accepted the Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Cancellation Application.
15.Owest will not charge for canceling the Wireless Type
Collocation job except for work already completed as of acceptance by Owest of
the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation Application. Charges will be based
on when Owest receives the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Cancellation Application
and the completion status of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation work. A quote will be
issued within thirty (30) calendar Days of Owest's acceptance of the Wireless Type
2 Collocation Cancellation Application.16 Owest may retain a limited amount of floor space for its own specific future
uses , provided, however, that neither Owest nor any of its Affiliates may reserve space for
future use on terms more favorable than those that apply to WSP's reservation of Wireless
Type 2 Collocation space for WSP's own future use. Owest shall relinquish any space
held for future use before denying a request for Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation on the
grounds of space limitations, unless Owest proves to the Commission that Virtual Wireless
Type 2 Collocation at that point is not Technically Feasible.17 In addition to the requirements of Section 2., all Wireless Type 2
Collocation installation and structures shall meet applicable earthquake safety rating

applicable related earthquake ratings is available for review on the Owest web site at:
http://www.Qwest.com/wholesale/pcat/Wireless Type 2 Collocation.html.18 Owest will review the security requirements, issue keys, 10 cards and
explain the access control processes to WSP. The access control process includes but is
not limited to the requirement that all WSP approved personnel are subject to trespass
violations if they are found outside of designated and approved areas or if they provide
access to unauthorized individuals. Likewise, Owest personnel are subject to trespass
violations if they are found to be wrongfully inside WSP physical caged collocated areas or
if they wrongfully provide access to unauthorized individuals.
18.Owest will take all reasonable measures to insure that WSP
equipment collocated in Owest Premises is afforded physical security at Parity with
Owest'similarly situated equipment. Should an event occur within a Owest
Premises that suggests vandalism or other tampering with WSP's equipment
Owest will , at WSP's request, vigorously and thoroughly investigate the situation.
WSP shall cooperate in the investigation as requested by Owest. Owest will keep
WSP apprised of the progress of any investigation, and report any conclusions in a
timely manner.19 Owest shall provide access to WSP's collocated equipment and existing
eyewash stations, bathrooms, and drinking water within the Premises on a twenty-four
(24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week basis for WSP personnel and its designated
agents. Such access shall be permitted without requiring either a security escort of any
kind or delaying WSP's employees entry into Owest Premises. Owest shall provide WSP
with access to other basic facilities, including parking, where available on a first-come
first-served basis.20 WSP shall be restricted to corridors , stairways, and elevators that provide
direct access to WSP's space, or to the nearest restroom facility from WSP's designated
space, and such direct access will be outlined during WSP's orientation meeting. Access
shall not be permitted to any other portion of the building.21 Nothing herein shall be construed to limit WSP's ability to obtain more than
one form of Wireless Type 2 Collocation (Le., Virtual , Caged, Shared and Cageless
Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation or ICDF Wireless Type 2 Collocation) in a single
Premises, provided space is available.22 Termination of Wireless Type 2 Collocation Arrangement. WSP may
terminate a completed Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangement by a Wireless Type 2
Collocation Decommission or a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility. A
Wireless Type 2 Collocation site is only eligible for Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Decommission or a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility after the site is
built-out and accepted by WSP. Abandoned equipment shall be handled as detailed in
Section 2.1 .22.
22.Wireless Type 2 Collocation Decommission. Wireless Type 2
Collocation Decommission refers to the deactivation of a Wireless Type 2

22.Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility. Wireless
Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility is the transfer of a Wireless Type 2
Collocation site from vacating WSP (current WSP leasing the space in the
Premises) to an assuming WSP. Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of
Responsibility is available for Caged Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation, and Virtual Wireless Type 2
Collocation. All other types of Wireless Type 2 Collocation to be transferred will be
handled on an Individual Case Basis (ICB). There are two (2) types of Wireless
Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility: 1) Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Transfer of Responsibility Without Working Circuits - The Wireless Type 2
Collocation is not serving any End User Customers and does not have active
service terminations (e., Interconnection trunks) or 2) Wireless Type 2
Collocation Transfer of Responsibility With Working Circuits - The Wireless Type 2
Collocation has active service terminations, such as Interconnection trunks or is
serving End User Customers.
22.Generally, Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of
Responsibility is not available if another WSP or Qwest are waiting in
queue for available space within the requested Premises; however, if
assuming WSP acquires all or substantially all of the Wireless Type 2
Collocation sites of vacating WSP in Qwest Premises in the state, such
transfers shall not be subject to any queue for available space. In addition
regardless of any space requests that may be pending in a Owest
Premises, Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility shall be
available when vacating WSP and assuming WSP are affiliated corporate
entities prior to or immediately after the proposed transfer, or the transfer is
due to a bankruptcy court order. If vacating WSP has filed for bankruptcy,
assuming WSP must comply with Applicable Law in obtaining the transfer
of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation site.
22.Both vacating WSP'and assuming WSP'
Interconnection Agreements with Qwest must contain finalized terms and
conditions for Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility and all
associated services. Assuming WSP is required to have
Interconnection Agreement with Qwest prior to submitting a Wireless Type
2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility request. Assuming WSP will need
to amend any previously existing Interconnection Agreement prior to
submitting a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility request
if its Interconnection Agreement does not contain the terms and conditions
and rate elements for all services that will be transferred.
22.Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility
with working circuits is available if only administrative changes are required
and the transfer does not involve translations work that needs to
processed in conjunction with the transfer. If translations work is needed
WSP's transfer plans shall allow for the completion of the Wireless Type 2
Collocation Transfer of Responsibility prior to initiating any translation
activity.

of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Transfer of Responsibility, Qwest will
begin Billing assuming WSP for all recurring charges based on assuming
WSP's Interconnection Agreement and cease Billing vacating WSP.
22.Abandoned Equipment. If Qwest finds, in the course of business,
evidence to substantiate that any equipment or property of WSP has been abandoned or
left unclaimed in or at any Premises, Qwest shall notify WSP in writing of the existence of
such equipment or property and WSP shall have thirty (30) calendar Days from the date of
such notice to remove such equipment or property from the Premises. If, prior to the
termination of the thirty (30) calendar Day period, WSP disputes that the equipment or
property has been abandoned or left unclaimed at the Premises , WSP shall provide
written notice to Qwest of such dispute ("Resolution Request") and commence Dispute
Resolution proceedings pursuant to Section 5.18 of the Agreement. If no Resolution
Request has been delivered to Qwest within thirty (30) calendar Days of the notice , all
equipment or property of WSP not removed from the Premises shall conclusively be
deemed and construed to have been transferred , deeded, and assigned by WSP to Qwest
and may be appropriated , sold, stored, destroyed and/or otherwise disposed of by Owest
without further notice to WSP and without obligation to account therefor, and WSP shall
reimburse Qwest for all reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the storage or

harmless Owest from and against any and all costs, expenses, claims, judgments
damages, liability or obligation arising out of or in connection with Owest's exercise of any
or all of its rights under this Section. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section , where
WSP has submitted a Decommissioning Application, the provisions of Section 2.22.
of this Amendment, shall govern the equipment or property of WSP and not this Section
unless WSP fails to remove its equipment or property in accordance with the terms of
Section 2.22.1 of this Amendment.23 Qwest shall design and engineer the most efficient route and cable racking
for the connection between WSP's equipment in its collocated spaces to the collocated
equipment of another WSP located in the same Owest Premises; or to WSP's own non-
contiguous Wireless Type 2 Collocation space. The most efficient route generally will be
over existing cable racking, to the extent Technically Feasible , but to determine the most
efficient route and cable racking, Qwest shall consider all information provided by WSP in
the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application form , including but not limited to, distance
limitations of the facilities WSP intends to use for the connection. WSP shall have access
to the designated route and construct such connection , using copper, coax, optical fiber

facilities, or any other Technically Feasible method utilizing a vendor of WSP's own
choosing. WSP may place its own fiber, coax , copper cable, or any other Technically
Feasible connecting facilities outside of the actual physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation
space , subject only to reasonable NEBS level 1 safety limitations using the route
specified by Owest. WSP may perform such Interconnections at the ICDF, if desired.24 Owest will provide WSP the same connection to the network as Owest
uses for provision of services to Owest End User Customers. The direct connection to
Owest's network is provided to WSP through a direct connection to Owest's existing Cross
Connection network. WSP and Owest will share the same distributing frames for similar
types and speeds of equipment, where Technically Feasible and space permitting.25 WSP terminations will be placed on the appropriate Owest Cross
Connection frames using standard engineering principles.WSP terminations will share
frame space with Owest terminations on Owest frames without a requirement for an
intermediate device.26 If WSP disagrees with the selection of the Owest Cross Connection frame,
WSP may request a tour of the Owest Premises to determine if Cross Connection frame
alternatives exist, and may request a connection to an alternative frame or an alternative
arrangement, such as direct connections from WSP's Wireless Type 2 Collocation space
to the MDF or COSMICTM frame.27 Conversions of the various Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangements
(e., Virtual to Physical) will be considered on an Individual Case Basis. However
conversions from Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation to Cageless Physical Wireless Type
2 Collocation, where the conversion only involves an administrative and Billing change,
and the virtually collocated equipment is located in a space where Cageless Physical
Wireless Type 2 Collocation is available , shall be completed in thirty (30) calendar Days.
WSP must pay all associated conversion charges.28 Owest shall permit WSP to construct or subcontract the construction and
build-out of Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangements with contractors approved
by Owest. Such WSP construction of Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangements
are for within WSP's physical space including the cage, if appropriate, frames, and cable
racking. Also, WSP may install the tie cables, blocks, and terminations on the ICDF
outside WSP's physical space and according to Owest's design. Owest approval of WSP
contractors involves security access arrangements and shall not be unreasonably
withheld. WSP is not required to use Owest or Owest contracted personnel for the
engineering and installation of WSP's collocated equipment. Approval by Owest of WSP'
employees , vendors or subcontractors shall be based on the same criteria that Owest
uses in approving contractors for its own purposes.29 Owest will provide WSP with written notification at least five (5) business
days before any scheduled non-emergency AC or DC power work in the collocated facility
that may cause a power disruption to WSP equipment located in the Owest facility. This
does not include notification of routine power testing or power installation work not
expected to cause a power disruption. Owest will use diligent efforts to notify WSP by the
Abnormal Condition Report (ACR) of: (a) general power outages as soon as Owest
becomes aware that an outage is to take place or has occurred and (b) any emergency
power disruption that would impact WSP equipment no later than thirty (30) minutes after
such activity commences. Finally, Owest shall immediately notify WSP by ACR if an
alarm condition exists with respect to the monitoring of power that poses a material risk to
the continued operation of WSP equipment.

30 Optional DC Power Measurement. WSP will order DC power to meet its
needs with a twenty (20) amperes (amp) per feed minimum. If WSP orders more than
sixty (60) amps , Owest typically terminates such feed on a power board. If WSP orders
sixty (60) amps or less, the power feed typically terminates at a battery distribution fuse
board (BDFB). No power measurements are performed at a BDFB. Therefore, for sixty
(60) amps or less , the power usage rate is based on WSP ordered amps. For power
feeds of greater than sixty (60) amps terminated at the power board, Owest will measure
usage on a semi-annual basis if WSP orders Optional DC Power Measurement. Owest
will also take a reading within thirty (30) calendar Days of a written request by WSP.
Owest will perform a maximum of four (4) readings per year for a particular Wireless Type
2 Collocation site. Until the routine semi-annual reading or until such time that Owest
makes a reading based on a written request , Owest will bill WSP based on the amount of
power ordered. Based on the reading, Owest will adjust the new monthly usage rate to
WSP's actual usage rate on a going forward basis.31 Joint Testing. Joint Testing allows WSP to request Owest to participate in
Joint Testing of WSP terminations at the Interconnection Distribution Frame (ICDF). WSP
may request Joint Testing on the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application form or by
sending a separate Joint Testing Application form. Wireless Type 2 Collocation and Joint
Testing Application forms are available in the PCAT. WSP must specify on its application
the terminations to be tested and the type of tests to be performed with Owest. WSP must
provide contact information on the application for Owest to arrange the Joint Testing date
and time. Owest will acknowledge acceptance of the application within ten (10) calendar
Days of receipt. Joint Testing will be complete within ninety (90) calendar Days of the
RFS if Joint Testing is requested on the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application form or
ninety (90) calendar Days from acceptance of the Joint Testing Application form.
31.Owest will only test between WSP Wireless Type 2 Collocation
and the ICDF once WSP equipment is in place. Joint Testing is only available for
the terminations identified on the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application or Joint
Testing Application. If WSP wants additional terminations tested that are not
identified on its initial application, WSP will need to complete a new Joint Testing
Application.
31.Each Party will provide appropriate test equipment for its
technicians. Owest will assist WSP in conducting continuity tests on terminations
at the ICDF. Owest will not operate WSP test equipment. If errors are found
during the Joint Testing, Owest will only repair Owest network faults. WSP
responsible for replacement or repair of WSP-provided facilities.
31.If during the scheduled Joint Testing, the Owest-caused error rate
is more than two percent (2%) on the terminations identified for testing, Owest will
not charge for this Joint Testing. If there are less than two percent (2%) errors
found or if the errors found are facility errors on WSP provided facilities, Owest will
charge for the Joint Testing. One (1) pair is counted as two (2) terminations and
errors are counted on a one (1) termination basis. If WSP requests that the
charges be waived because Owest errors are found during Joint Testing, Owest
may access WSP's Wireless Type 2 Collocation space to identify if the facility
cabling sequence is correct, per applicable standards. WSP may review Owest
facility cabling at the ICDF to verify the cable sequence, per applicable standards.32 DC Power Reduction. DC Power Reduction With Reservation allows WSP
to reserve a fuse or breaker position on the power board or battery distribution fuse board

(BDFB) when reducing a secondary power feed to z~ro. WSP will pay a monthly power
maintenance charge to retain the existing power cabling and fuse position for future power
augment requests or until such time as WSP notifies Owest it wishes to discontinue the
option. DC Power Reduction Without Reservation allows WSP to reduce the ordered
amps on a primary or secondary feed to a minimum of twenty (20) amps.
32.Applications for DC Power Reduction may be submitted only for
Wireless Type 2 Collocation sites that have been completed and accepted by
WSP, otherwise WSP should follow standard change or augment procedures
including the applicable rates for changes or augments. On the Wireless Type 2
Collocation Application, WSP should indicate that it is a request for DC Power
Reduction and identify the specific power feeds to be reduced. WSP should
submit the applicable OPF or Engineering and Design fee with its Wireless Type 2
Collocation Application requesting DC Power Reduction. Owest will notify WSP of
any deficiencies in the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application , within ten (10)
calendar Days of receipt. A quote for the DC Power Reduction will be provided to
WSP within twenty-five (25) calendar Days. The quoted nonrecurring charges will
be honored for thirty (30) calendar Days from the quote. WSP payment of all
quoted nonrecurring charges constitutes acceptance and Owest will then perform
the work. If WSP accepts the quote within seven (7) calendar Days, Owest shall
complete the DC Power Reduction within ninety (90) calendar Days of receipt of
the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application. If WSP accepts the quote after seven
(7) calendar Days, Owest shall complete the DC Power Reduction within ninety
(90) calendar Days of receipt of WSP's acceptance.
32.WSP assumes all responsibility for outages or impacts to WSP
services and equipment due to the reduction in DC power. Restoration of the DC
power is contingent upon the desired power and fuse availability.
32.Before submitting a Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application
requesting DC Power Reduction , WSP's financial obligations for the Wireless Type
2 Collocation site must be current, with the exception of formally disputed charges.
Billing to WSP will be revised to reflect the reduced DC power upon receipt of
payment of the quoted charges effective back to the date of acceptance by Owest
of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application.
32.4 If a shortage of fuse positions is imminent, Owest will notify WSP of the
need to exercise its option to reuse the power feed and fuse, or relinquish the fuse
position for use by another WSP or Owest. Upon receipt of such notification , WSP must
request restoration of the secondary power feed to at least twenty (20) amps or return the
fuse position to Owest within thirty (30) calendar Days.33 Wireless Type 2 Collocation Available Inventory. Wireless Type 2
Collocation Available Inventory provides WSP with information about the availability of (a)
returned Wireless Type 2 Collocation sites and elements under Owest's control ("Owest
Postings ) and (b) WSP controlled sites that may be posted are available for a Transfer of
Responsibility ("WSP Postings ). Owest and WSPs may post available Wireless Type 2Collocation sites on Owest'wholesale web site at:

the office. This option also supports transitions from one (1) form of Wireless Type2 Collocation to another.
2.4.Express Fiber Entrance Facility - Owest will place WSP-provided
fiber cable from the C-POI directly to WSP's Wireless Type 2 Collocation space.
The fiber cable placed in the Wire Center must meet NEBS Level 1 fire rating
requirements. If WSP provided cable does not meet NEBS Level 1 fire rating
requirements then a transition splice will occur in the cable vault to insure that the
cable within the Owest Wire Center meets requirements. This option will not be
available if there is only one (1) conduit with two (2) unused innerducts (one (1) for
emergency restoral and one for a shared entrance cable).2.4.4 Owest will designate the location of the C-POI for Virtual, Caged Physical
or Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation arrangements.
2.4.The Wireless Type 2 Collocation Entrance Facility is assumed to be fiber
optic cable and meets industry standards (GR. 20 Core). Metallic sheath cable is not
considered a standard Wireless Type 2 Collocation Entrance Facility. Requests for non-
standard entrances will be considered through the BFR process described in the Bona
Fide Request Process Section of the Agreement. All costs and Provisioning intervals for
non-standard entrances will be developed on an Individual Case Basis.
2.4.Owest shall provide an Interconnection point or points, physically
accessible by both Owest and WSP , at which the fiber optic cable carrying WSP's circuits
can enter Owest's Wire Center, provided that Owest shall designate Interconnection
points as close as reasonably possible to its Premises. Owest shall offer at least two (2)
such Interconnection points at each Owest Wire Center when at least two (2) entry points

WSP Consolidation Amendment
Amendment to CDS-030417 -0001 (Pacific Bell Wireless)
c) New Interconnection Distributing Framed) Existing Toll Framee) Fiber Distribution Panelf) Existing Intermediate Frame
11.The ICDF is the test access point. It would not be
uncommon to find multiple service providers , including Owest, on the ICDF
at anyone time. This element includes Owest's provided termination
blocks, installation labor between WSP collocated equipment and the
appropriate cross connect device. Cabling is also required and may be
provided by WSP or at its request, Owest will provide cabling at an
additional charge. When Owest provides the cabling, Wireless Type 2
Collocation Block Termination rates will apply as contained in Exhibit A of
this Amendment. When WSP provides the cabling, Wireless Type 2
Collocation Termination rates, on a per termination basis, will apply as
contained in Exhibit A of this Amendment. When WSP provides and
installs the tie cables, blocks and terminations on the ICDF, no Wireless
Type 2 Collocation Termination rates will apply.
11.Direct Connection
11.Direct Connection provides an uninterrupted path from
the Wireless Type 2 Collocation space to an existing frame. This option will
guarantee that there will not be an ICDF. The connection will be designed
from the Wireless Type 2 Collocation space to the same frame that Owest
uses to connect to that specific service. For example, if WSP wants to
connect directly from its Wireless Type 2 Collocation space to a 911 router
the infrastructure for the 911 trunks will terminate in a DS1 bay location with
the 911-router circuits. There are several options for the location of the
Demarcation Point. WSP will select its desired option via the Direct
Connection Wireless Type 2 Collocation Application. If WSP chooses a
demarcation inside the Wireless Type 2 Collocation space, WSP should
order and install the termination equipment itself. Demarcation equipment
must be noted on the order form so that a CLL! code and unique tie cable
assignments can be generated for systems flow through. If WSP chooses
a demarcation outside its Wireless Type 2 Collocation space, Owest will
maintain and inventory this device. Direct terminations may be ordered
where frame space is available. If frame space is exhausted the
terminations may need to be made at another frame. Upon completion of
the pre-provisioning of the Direct Connection , WSP will receive an Alternate
Point of Termination (APOT) form so that it may order Finished Services.
WSP will be responsible for augmenting terminations as required. The
Direct Connection APOT information must be provided on the ASR or LSR
to insure that the services are designed to the dedicated path.
11.2 WSP's termination point will require a CLL! code (e.
Frame Number) and the dedicated tie pairs will require a unique name to
enable automatic assignment through TIRKSTM and SWITCHTM via Carrier
Facilities Address (CFA) methods.
11.If WSP wishes to arrange terminations on a 2-wire POTS
level cross connect device of the modular type, i.e. COSMICTM Hardware,

standard-engineering principles will apply. Provisioning intervals and costs
will be customized and determined on an Individual Case Basis (ICB).
five (5) year forecast including terminations per quantities will be required.
MELDTM runs will be required for the initial COSMICTM plan and each
subsequent block addition. To minimize WSP's cost, to the extent feasible
Owest shall consolidate WSP's requirements with the requirements of
Owest and other WSPs into a single MELDTM run whenever feasible. Costs
of such consolidated MELDTM runs shall be prorated among the parties
including Owest. Minimum installation requires at least one (1) block for
every two (2) outside plant modules. A one-half (Y2) shelf of block capacity
must be reserved for future block space.
11.2.4 Requests for terminations at a DSO, DS1 , DS3 and
optical level (non-POTS) may also be made directly to the respective frame
or panel (Le., toll frame , DSX, FOP, etc.
).
Direct Connections to these
frames do not require MELDTM runs and short jumper engineering
principals, as with the COSMICTM frame. However these connections will
require coordination between Owest and WSP to ensure that the cable is
terminated in an existing frame with the service that WSP is wishing to
connect with. Direct Connection is ordered via the supplemental Wireless
Type 2 Collocation order form, Direct Connection (DC-POT). Timing,
pricing and feasibility will be determined on the basis of a specific , in-depth
building analysis. Direct Connections are available where available frame
space permits. If frame space is exhausted , terminations may need to be
made at another frame. Space availability will be determined during the
feasibility request phase of the order. Rates for Direct Connection
Terminations will be on an ICB basis.
11.Terminations must be purchased in the following increments:
DSO in blocks of 100 or less; DS1 in increments of one (1); and DS3 in increments
of one (1) coaxial cable or six (6) fiber pairs (twelve) fibers.12 Security Charge. This charge applies to the keys/card and card readers
required for WSP access to the Owest Premises for the purpose of Wireless Type 2
Collocation. There are two monthly recurring rate elements associated with Security
Access. The first rate element is per access card, per WSP employee , per month. The
second rate element is the number of card accessible premises, per WSP employee , per
month , as included in Exhibit A to this Amendment.13 Composite Clock/Central Office Synchronization. Recovers the cost of
providing composite clock and/or DS1 synchronization signals traceable to a stratum one
source. WSP must determine the synchronization requirements for WSP's equipment and
notify Owest of these requirements when ordering the clock signals. Central Office
Synchronization is required for Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation involving digital
services or connections. Synchronization may be required for analog services. Central
Office Synchronization is available where Owest Central Offices are equipped with
Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS). The rate is applied on a per Port basis in
accordance with Exhibit A.14 -48 Volt DC Power Cable Charge. Provides for the transmission of -

associated with the work required to reduce the fuse or breaker size, rewiring the power
lead at the power source or relocation of the power feed are found in Exhibit A. When
power is restored, nonrecurring charges will be assessed for the work required to restore
the power utilizing standard power rate elements for power usage, labor and cabling
charges. These rates are found in Exhibit A. A recurring Power Maintenance Charge is
associated with the option to hold the power infrastructure for a secondary feed for
potential future use by WSP. The recurring charge will terminate on the date a restoration
job completes for the power feed or WSP returns the fuse position to Qwest.20 Wireless Type 2 Collocation Available Inventory Charges. For standard
Qwest Postings of Wireless Type 2 Collocation Available Inventory, WSP will be charged
the standard Wireless Type Collocation rates , including the applicable QPF or
Engineering and Planning Fee. WSP will also be charged for removal of terminations.

Billing
Billing - All Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Upon completion of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation construction activities
and payment of the remaining nonrecurring balance, Owest will provide WSP a completion
package that will initiate the recurring Wireless Type 2 Collocation charges. Once this
completion package has been signed by WSP and Owest, and Owest has received the
final fifty percent (50%) balance, Owest will activate WSP transport services or ancillary
services coincident with completion of the Wireless Type 2 Collocation.
In the event Owest has completed all associated construction activities
and WSP has not completed its associated activities (e., delivering fiber to the C-POI , or
providing the equipment cables for connecting to the Interconnection Distribution Frame),
Owest will bill an adjusted amount of the remaining nonrecurring balance, close the job
and begin Billing the monthly recurring rent charge. In those instances where the job is
delayed due to WSP not having its fiber to the POI , Owest will request the balance due
minus the dollar amount specific to this work activity, and begin Billing the monthly
recurring rent charge. Once WSP has completed fiber placement, WSP can request
Owest to return and complete the splicing activity at the rate reflected in this Amendment.
In the case of missing equipment cables, WSP will be responsible for installing the cables
if not delivered at job completion. The installation activity must be conducted by a Owest
approved vendor and follow the designated racking route. Final test and turn-up will be
performed under the Maintenance and Repair process contained herein.
Billing - Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Virtual Wireless Type 2 Collocation will be considered complete when the
Premises is Ready for Service (RFS). Cooperative testing between WSP and Owest maybe negotiated and performed to ensure continuity and acceptable transmission
parameters in the facility and equipment.
Billing - Caged and Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation
Payment for the remaining nonrecurring charges shall be upon the RFS
date. Upon completion of the construction activities and payment of the remaining
nonrecurring charges, Owest will schedule a walk through of the space with WSP. During
this joint walk through , Owest will turn over access to the space and provide security
access to the Premises. Upon completion of the acceptance walk through , WSP will be
provided the Caged or Cageless Physical Wireless Type 2 Collocation completion
package (i.e., all ordering information). The monthly Billing for leased space, DC power
Entrance Facility, and other associated monthly charges will commence with WSP sign off
on the completion of the physical space. WSP may then proceed with the installation of its
equipment in the Wireless Type 2 Collocation space , unless early access has been
September 27, 2006/ccd/New Cingular Wireless/ID
WSP Consolidation Amendment
