Re: Requested Adoption Under Section 252(i) of the T A96
Dear Mr. Boyer:
Verizon Northwest Inc., f/k/a GTE Northwest Incorporated
, ("
Verizon ), a Washington
corporation, with principal place of business at 1800 41st Street, Everett, Washington
98201, has received your letter stating that, under Section 252(i) of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Act"), AIRPEAK Communications, LLC
AIRPEAK"), a Nevada Limited Liability Company, with principal place of business at
4690 Longley Lane, Suite 25 , Reno, Nevada 89502, wishes to adopt the terms of the
Interconnection Agreement between Nextel West Corp. ("Nextel") and Verizon that was
approved by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (the "Commission ) as an effective
agreement in the State of Idaho, as such agreement exists on the date hereof after giving
effect to operation of law (the "Terms ). I understand AIRPEAK has a copy of the
Terms. Please note the following with respect to AIRPEAK's adoption of the Terms.
By AIRPEAK's countersignature on this letter, AIRPEAK hereby represents and
agrees to the following five points:
(A)AIRPEAK adopts (and agrees to be bound by) the Terms of the
Nextel/Verizon agreement for interconnection as it is in effect on the date
hereof after giving effect to operation of law, and in applying the Terms
agrees that AIRPEAK shall be substituted in place of Nextel West Corp. and
Nextel in the Terms wherever appropriate.
AIRPEAK ill 252SIN 101003.DOC
(B) For avoidance of doubt, adoption of the Terms does not include adoption of
any provision imposing an unbundling obligation on Verizon that no longer
applies under the Report and Order and Order on Remand (FCC 03-36)
released by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") on August 21
2003 in CC Docket Nos. 01-338, 96-, 98-147 ("Triennial Review Order
which became effective on October 2, 2003. In light of the effectiveness of
the Triennial Review Order, any reasonable period of time for adopting such
provisions has expired under the FCC's rules implementing section 252(i) of
the Act (see, e.47 CFR Section 51.809(c)).
(C)Notice to AIRPEAK and Verizon as may be required under the Terms
shall be provided as follows:

(D)AIRPEAK represents and warrants that it is a FCC-licensed provider of
two-way wireless service in the State of Idaho, and that its adoption of the
Terms will cover services in the State of Idaho only.
AIRPEAK ID 252SIN 1O1003.DOC
(E)
(F)
In the event an interconnection agreement between Verizon and
AIRPEAK is currently in effect in the State of Idaho (the "Original ICA"
this adoption shall be an amendment and restatement of the operating
terms and conditions of the Original ICA, and shall replace in their
entirety the terms of the Original ICA. This adoption is not intended to be
nor shall it be construed to create, a novation or accord and satisfaction
with respect to the Original ICA. Ariy outstanding payment obligations of
the parties that were incurred but not fully performed under the Original
ICA shall constitute payment obligations of the parties under this
adoption.
Verizon s standard pricing schedule for interconnection agreements in the
State ofldaho (as such schedule may be amended from time to time)
(attached as Appendix 1 hereto) shall apply to AIRPEAK's adoption of
the Terms; provided, however, that if the Terms memorialize acceptance
of Verizon s offer of an optional reciprocal compensation rate plan for
non-Internet traffic subject to Section 251(b)(5) pursuant to the industry
letter described in footnote 2 of this Letter, then the optional reciprocal
compensation rate plan in the Terms shall apply to this adoption instead of
the reciprocal compensation rates set forth in Appendix 1. AIRPEAK
should note that the aforementioned pricing schedule may contain rates for
certain services the terms for which are not included in the Terms or that
are otherwise not part of this adoption, and may include phrases or
wording not identical to those utilized in the Terms. In an effort to
expedite the adoption process, Verizon has not deleted such rates from the
pricing schedule or attempted to customize the wording in the pricing
schedule to match the Terms. However, the inclusion of such rates in no
way obligates Verizon to provide the subject services and in no way
waives Verizon s rights, and the use of slightly different wording or
phrasing in the pricing schedule does not alter the obligations and rights
set forth in the Terms.
AIRPEAK's adoption of the Nextel Terms shall become effective on January 28
2004. Verizon shall file this adoption letter with the Commission promptly upon
receipt of an original of this letter countersigned by an authorized officer of
AIRPEAK. The term and termination provisions of the NextelNerizon
agreement shall govern AIRPEAK's adoption of the Terms. The adoption of the
Terms is currently scheduled to expire on July 26, 2004.
As the Terms are being adopted by you pursuant to your statutory rights under
section 252(i), Verizon does not provide the Terms to you as either a voluntary or
negotiated agreement. The filing and performance by Verizon of the Terms does
not in any way constitute a waiver by Verizon of any position as to the Terms or a
portion thereof, nor does it constitute a waiver by Verizon of all rights and
AlRPEAK ill 252SIN 101003.DOC
remedies it may have to seek review of the Terms, or to seek review in any way of
any provisions included in these Terms as a result of AIRPEAK's 252(i) election.
Nothing herein shall be construed as or is intended to be a concession or admission
by Verizon that any provision in the Terms complies with the rights and duties
imposed by the Act, the decisions of the FCC and the Commissions, the decisions
of the courts, or other law, and Verizon expressly reserves its full right to assert and
pursue claims arising from or related to the Terms.
Verizon reserves the right to deny AIRPEAK's adoption and/or application of the
Terms, in whole or in part, at any time:
(a)when the costs of providing the Terms to AIRPEAK are greater than the
costs of providing them to Nextel;
if the provision of the Terms to AIRPEAK is not technically feasible;
and/or
to the extent that Verizon otherwise is not required to make the Terms
available to AIRPEAK under applicable law.
(b)
(c)
For avoidance of doubt, please note that adoption of the Terms will not result in
reciprocal compensation payments for Internet traffic. Verizon has always taken
the position that reciprocal compensation was not due to be paid for Internet
traffic under section 251 (b )( 5) of the Act. V erizon' s position that reciprocal
compensation is not to be paid for Internet traffic was confirmed by the FCC in
the Order on Remand and Report and Order adopted on April 18, 2001 FCC
Internet Order
),
which held that Internet traffic constitutes "information access
outside the scope of the reciprocal compensation obligations set forth in section
251(b)(5) of the ACt.1 Accordingly, any compensation to be paid for Internet
traffic will be handled pursuant to the terms of the FCC Internet Order not
pursuant to adoption of the Terms.2 Moreover
, in light of the FCC Internet
Order even if the Terms include provisions invoking an intercarrier
compensation mechanism for Internet traffic, any reasonable amount of time
permitted for adopting such provisions has expired under the FCC's rules
implementing section 252(i) of the ACt.3 In fact
, the FCC Internet Order made
clear that carriers may not adopt provisions of an existing interconnection

Provisions in the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and Intercarrier Compensation for ISP-Bound Traffic

FCC No. 01-1218 (D.c. Cir. May 3, 2002). Although the D.C. Circuit remanded the FCC Remand Order
to permit the FCC to clarify its reasoning, it left the order in place as governing federal law. See
WorldCom, Inc. v. FCC No. 01-1218, slip Ope at 5 (D.C. Cir. May 3, 2002).2 For your convenience

agreement to the extent that such provisions provide compensation for Internet
traffic.
Should AIRPEAK attempt to apply the Terms in a manner that conflicts with
paragraphs 3-6 above, Verizon reserves its rights to seek appropriate legal and/or
equitable relief.
In the event that a voluntary or involuntary petition has been or is in the future
filed against AIRPEAK under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, or any law relating
to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness, debtor reorganization or
composition or extension of debt (any such proceeding, an "Insolvency
Proceeding ), then: (i) all rights of Verizon under such laws, including, without
limitation, all rights of Verizon under 11 U.c. ~ 366, shall be preserved, and
AIRPEAK's adoption of the Verizon Terms shall in no way impair such rights of
Verizon; and (ii) all rights of AIRPEAK resulting from AIRPEAK's adoption of
the Verizon terms shall be subject to and modified by any Stipulations and Orders
entered in the Insolvency Proceeding, including, without limitation, any
Stipulation or Order providing adequate assurance of payment to Verizon
pursuant to 11 U.C. ~ 366.

DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATION OF RATE ELEMENTS
Non-Recurring Charges
The following are non-recurring charges (one-time charges) that apply for specific work activity:
Enaineerina/Maior Auament Fee. The Engineering/Major Augment Fee applies for each initial
Caged, Cageless, Virtual , or Microwave collocation request and major augment requests for
existing Caged , Cageless , and Virtual collocation arrangements. This charge recovers the costs
of the initial walkthrough to determine if there is sufficient collocation space, the best location for
the collocation area, what building modifications are necessary to provide collocation, and if
sufficient DC power facilities exist in the premises to accommodate collocation. This fee also
includes the total time for the Building Services Engineer and the time for the Outside Plant and
Central Office Engineers to attend status meetings.
Enaineerina/Maior Auament Fee (Microwave Only). The Engineering/Major Augment Fee for
Microwave Collocation applies when an existing Caged and Cageless collocation arrangement is
augmented with newly installed microwave antennae and other exterior facilities. This charge
recovers the costs of the initial walkthrough to determine if there is sufficient space, the best
location for the microwave antennae and other exterior facilities, what building modifications are
necessary, if any, and if sufficient support facilities exist in the premises to accommodate the
microwave antennae and other exterior facilities. This fee also includes the total time for the
Building Services Engineer to coordinate the entire project.
Minor Auament Fee. The Minor Augment Fee applies for each minor augment request of an
Existing Caged, Cageless, Virtual , or Microwave collocation arrangement that does not require
additional AC or DC power systems, HVAC system upgrades , or additional cage space. Minor
augments are those requests that require the Company to perform a service or function on behalf
of the CLEC including, but not limited to: installation of Virtual equipment cards or software
upgrades , removal of Virtual equipment, requests to pull cable from exterior microwave facilities
and requests to terminate DSO, DS1 and DS3 cables.
Access Card Administration. The Access Card Administration rate covers activities associated
with the issuance and management of premises access cards. The rate is applied on a per card
basis.
Caae Groundina Bar. The Cage Grounding Bar rate recovers the material and labor costs to
provision a ground bar, including necessary ground wire, in the collocator s cage.
BITS Timing . The non-recurring charge for BITS Timing includes engineering, materials, and
labor costs to wire a BITS port to the CLEC's equipment. If requested , it is applied on a per
project basis.
