CASE NO.: QWE- T -04-09
APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF
AMENDMENT TO THE
INTERCONNCTION AGREEMENT
Qwest Corporation ("Qwest") hereby fies this Application for Approval of Amendment
to the Interconnection Agreement ("Amendment"), which was approved by the Idaho Public
Utilties Commssion on June 22, 2004 (the "Agreement"). The Amendment with AT&T
Communications of the Mountain States, Inc. ("AT&T") is submitted herewith.
This Amendment was reached through voluntary negotiations without resort to mediation
or arbitration and is submitted for approval pursuant to Section 252( e) of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended by the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Act").
Section 252(e)(2) of the Act directs that a state Commssion may reject an amendment
reached through voluntar negotiations only if the Commssion finds that: the amendment (or
portiones) thereof) discriminates against a telecommunications carer not a pary 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 Commssion approve this Amendment expeditiously.
This Amendment is consistent with the public interest as identified in the pro-competitive
policies of the State of Idaho, the Commssion, the United States Congress, and the Federal
Communications Commssion. Expeditious approval of this Amendment wil enable AT&T to

interconnect with Qwest facilities and to provide customers with increased choices among local
telecommunications services.
Qwest further requests that the Commssion approve this Amendment without a hearng.
Because this Amendment was reached through voluntar negotiations, it does not raise issues
requiring a hearng and does not concern other paries not a pary to the negotiations.
Expeditious approval would further the public interest.
Respectfully submitted this i day of April, 2010.
