The FCC Modenrizing Unbundling and Resale Requirements Amendment ("Amendment") between CenturyLink and Intrado Safety Communications, Inc. ("Intado Safety") 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 arnendment reached through voluntary negotiations only if the Commission finds that the amendment (or portion(s) thereof) discriminates against a telecommunications carrier not a party to this AppLlcanoN non AppRovat oF AMENDMENT ro INTTncoNNECTIoN AcREEMENT [CLEC] -Page I agroement; or the implementation of such an amendment (or portion) is not consistent with the public interest, convenience and necessity CenturyLink 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 ldaho, the Commission, the United States Congress, and the Federal Communications Commission.
