public interest, convenience and necessity.
Qwest respectfully submits that this Agreement provides no basis for either of these
findings, and, therefore requests that the Commission approve this Agreement expeditiously.
This Agreement is consistent with the public interest as identified in the pro-competitive policies

Expeditious approval would further the public interest.
