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
. Utilities Commission on May 2, 2008 (the "Agreement"). The Amendment with Access Point,
Inc. 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 Commission may reject an amendment
reached through voluntary negotiations only if the Commssion finds that: the amendment (or
portiones) thereof) discriminates against a telecommunications carrer 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
policies of the State of Idaho, the Commssion, the United States Congress, and the Federal
Communications Commission. Expeditious approval of this Amendment wil enable Access.

requiring a hearing and does not concern other parties not a party to the negotiations.
Expeditious approval would further the public interest.

the disputed charges and any late payment charges that have
been assessed no later than the second Bil Date after the
resolution of the dispute.

Qwt will adjust the Biling, usually within tw Billng cycles after
the reolution of the dispute, as follows: Qwest will creit the
CLEC's bil for the disputed amount and any associated interest;
or if the disputed amount is greater than the bil to be crdited,
pay the remaining amount to CLEC.
C. The interest calculated on the disputed amounts wil be the
same rate as late payment charges. In no event, however, wil
any late payment charges be assessed on any previously
assessed late payment charges.
D. If CLEC fails to dispute a rate or charge within 60 Days

011.1 . Order Installation Interval
Purpose:

install service.
Description:
Measures the average interval (in business days) between the application date and the completion
date for service orders accepted and implemented.
. Includes all inward orders (Change, New, and Transfer order types) assigned a due date by
Qwest and which are completed/closed during the reporting period, subject to exclusions specified
below. Change order types for additional lines consist of all C orders representing inward activity.
· Intervals for each measured event are counted in whole days: the application date is day zero (0);
the day following the application date is day one (1).
· The Applicable Due Date is the original due date or, if changed or delayed by the CLEC, the most
recently revised due date, subject to the following: If Qwest changes a due date forQwest
reasons, the Applicable Due Date is the CLEC-initiated due date, if any, that is (a~ subsequent to
the original due date and (b) prior to a Qwest-initiated, changed due date, if any. OTE 1
. Time intervals associated with CLEC-initiated due date changes or delays occurring after the
Applicable Due Date, as applied in the formula below, are calculated by subtracting the latest

initiated due date, if any. NOTE

Availabilty:Notes:
1. According to this definition, the Applicable Due Date can
change, per successive CLEC-initiated due date changes or
delays, up to the point when a Qwest-initiated due date change
occurs. At that point, the Applicable Due Date becomes fixed
(Le., with no further changes) as the date on which it was set
prior to the first Qwest-initiated due date change, if any.
Following the first Qwest-initiated due date change, any further
CLEC-initiated due date changes or delays are measured as
time intervals that are subtracted as indicated in the formula.
These delay time intervals are calculated as stated in the
description. (Though infrequent, in cases where multiple
Qwest-initiated due date changes occur, the stated method for
calculating delay intervals is applied to each pair of Qwest-
initiated due date change and subsequent CLEC-initiated due
date change or delay. The intervals thus calculated from each
pairing of Qwest and CLEC-initiated due dates are summed
and then subtracted as indicated in the formula.) The result of
this approach is that Qwest-initiated impacts on intervals are
counted in the reported interval, and CLEC-initiated impact on
intervals are not counted in the reported intervaL.
Performance will be
measured beginning in the
first full month of QLSP
service (for the following
month's reporting).
