VCi COMPANY'S NOTICE OF WITBDRA W AL OF SERVICE AND
RELINQUISHMENT OF ETC DESIGNATION
COMES NOW, VCI Company ("VCI"), and, pursuat to Idaho Code Section 62-612,
files with the Idaho Public Utilties Commission ("Commssion") this Notice of Withdrawal of
Service and Relinquishment of ETC designtion. In furterance of its desire to cancel its service
authority and relinquish its ETC designation, VCI provides the following information:
1. The Commission issued VCi a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity
("CPCN") to provide facilities-based and resold local exchange, intraLAT A
interexchange and exchange access servces by Order No. 29584 in Case No. GNR-T-03-
21 on September 3,2004. The Commission's Order granted VCi the authority to provide
service in the service areas of Qwest Corporation and Verizon.
2. The joint request of Qwest Corporation and VCI for approval of the adoption of an
existing interconnection agreement was approved by the Commssion on May 5, 2005,
Case No.QWE-T-05-3. VCI did not enter into an interconnection agreement with
Verizon.
3. VCL was designated an ETC by the Commssion on Janua 13, 2005, by Order No.
29686 in Case No. VCI-T-04-L.
4. VCI never provided local exchange or interexchange servce in Idaho and, because of
changes in its business plan, will not serve Idaho in the futue. VCI has no Idaho local
exchange or interexchange customers and is not in possession of deposits or advance
payments belonging to Idaho consumers. VCi never acted as an ETC in Idaho.
6. Because VCI has no customers and has never acted as an ETC in Idaho, VCI requests a
waiver of the requirement in Idaho Code Section 62-612(2) to publish notice of its
withdrawal in a legal newspaper circulated with its certficated local exchage service
areas.
7. 47 USC Section 214(e) (4) provides that a carer desiring to relinquish its ETC
designation must notif a state commission of its intention to do so. 47 USC Section
214(e)(4) also provides that a state commission must permit a carer to relinquish its
ETC designation in an area where more than one carer has been designated an ETC.
VCI is not the sole ETC designated in Qwest Corporation's service area. Thus, the
Commission should permit VCI to relinquish its ETC designation.
8. VCI's withdrawal of service and relinquishment of its ETC designation will not adversely
affect the public convenience and necessity.
9. Correspondence and communications regarding this Notice should be directed to:
Stanley J. Johnson, President
