Re:Requested Adoption Under Section 252(i) of the Communications Act
Dear Ms. Davis:
Verizon Northwest Inc. ("Verizon ), a Washington corporation, with principal place of business at
1800 41st Street, Everett, WA 98201 , has received correspondence stating that Time Warner
Telecom of Idaho LLC ("TWTC"), a Delaware Limited Liability Company, with principal place of
business at 10475 Park Meadows Dr., Littleton , CO 80124 wishes, pursuant to Section 252(i) of
the Communications Act, to adopt the terms of the Interconnection Agreement between Verizon
Avenue Corp. ("Verizon Avenue ) 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 TWTC has a copy of the Terms. Please note the following with respect to TWTC'
adoption of the Terms.
By TWTC's countersignature on this letter, TWTC hereby represents and agrees to the
following seven points:
TWTC adopts (and agrees to be bound by) the Terms and, in applying the
Terms, agrees that TWTC shall be substituted in place of Verizon Avenue Corp.
and Verizon Avenue in the Terms wherever appropriate.
For the avoidance of any doubt, adoption of the Terms does not include adoption
of any provision imposing an unbundling obligation on Verizon (i) that no longer
applies to Verizon under the Report and Order and Order on Remand (FCC 03-
TWTG ID MFN 022206.doc
36) released by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") on August 21
2003 in CC Docket Nos. 01-338, 96-98, 98-147 ("Triennial Review Order ), or the
Order on Remand in WC Docket No. 04-313 and CC Docket No. 01-338
released by the FCC on February 4, 2005 (the "TRO Remand Order"), or (ii) that
is otherwise not required by 47 U.C. Section 251 (c)(3) or by 47 C.F.R. Part 51.
Notice to TWTC and Verizon as may be required or permitted under the Terms
shall be provided as follows:

TWTC represents and warrants that it is a certified provider of local
telecommunications service in the State of Idaho, and that its adoption of the
Terms will cover services in the State of Idaho only.
In the event an interconnection agreement between Verizon and TWTC is
currently in effect in the State of Idaho (the "OriginaIICAn), this adoption shall be
an amendment and restatement of the operating terms and conditions of the
OriginallCA, and shall replace in their entirety the terms of the OriginallCA. This
adoption is not intended to be, nor shall it be construed to create, a novation or
accord and satisfaction with respect to the OriginallCA. Any 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
of Idaho (as such schedule may be amended from time to time) (attached as
Appendix A hereto) shall apply to TWTC's adoption of the Terms. TWTC should
TWTG ID MFN 022206.doc
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 different wording or phrasing in
the pricing schedule does not alter the obligations and rights set forth in the
Terms.
TWTC's adoption of the Terms shall become effective on May 5, 2006. Verizon
shall file this adoption letter with the Commission promptly upon receipt of an
original of this letter countersigned by TWTC as to the points set out in
Paragraph One hereof. The term and termination provisions of the Terms shall
govern TWTC's adoption of the Terms.
As the Terms are being adopted by TWTC pursuant to Section 252(i) of the Act, 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 remedies it may have to seek review of the Terms, or
to seek review in any way of any provisions included in the Terms as a result of TWTG's
adoption of the Terms.
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 Commission, 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 TWTC's application of the Terms, in whole or in part
at any time:
when the costs of providing the Terms to TWTC are greater than the costs of
providing them to Verizon Avenue;
if the provision of the Terms to TWTC is not technically feasible; and/or
to the extent that Verizon otherwise is not required to make the Terms available
to TWTC under applicable law.
For the avoidance of any 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. Verizon 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 Ordei'), 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
1 Order on Remand and Report and Order, In the Matters of: Implementation of the Local Competition Provisions in the
Telecommunications Act of 1996 and Intercarrier Compensation for ISP-Bound Traffic, CC Docket No. 99-68 (reI. April 27
2001) ("FCC Remand Order'? 1144 remanded, WorldCom, Inc. v. FCC No. 01-1218 (D.C. Cir. May 3 2002). Although
TWTC 10 MFN 022206.doc
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 agreement to the extent that such provisions provide
compensation for Internet traffic.
Should TWTC attempt to apply the Terms in a manner that conflicts with Paragraphs Two
through Paragraphs Five 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 TWTC 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: (A) all rights of Verizon
under such laws, including, without limitation, all rights of Verizon under 11 U.C. 9366
shall be preserved, and TWTC's adoption of the Terms shall in no way impair such rights
of Verizon; and (B) all rights of TWTC resulting from TWTC's adoption of the 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.
the D.C. Circuit remanded the FCC Remand Order to permit the FCC to clarify its reasoning, it left the order in place as
~oveming federal law. See WorldCom, Inc. v. FCC No. 01-1218, slip op. at 5 (D.C. Cir. May 3 2002).
