APPLICATION OF QWEST CORPORATION DBA

AMENDMENT TO INTERCONNECTION
AGREEMENT WITH METROPOLITAN
TELECOMMUNICATIONS OF IDAHO INC.
PURSUANT TO 47 U.S.C. §252(e)

CASE NO.:

APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF
AMENDMENT TO INTERCONNECTION
AGREEMENT

Qwest Corporation dba CenturyLink QC (“CenturyLink”) hereby files this Application
for Approval of Amendment to the Interconnection Agreement. The Interconnection Agreement
was approved by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission on May 5, 2005 under Order No. 29776
(the “Agreement”). The Unbundled Network Elements (UNEs) Forbearance Amendment
(“Amendment”) between CenturyLink and Metropolitan Telecommunications of Idaho Inc.
(“MetTel”) 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 Commission finds that: the amendment (or
portion(s) thereof) discriminates against a telecommunications carrier not a party to this
CASE NO. QWE-T-22-11
APPLICATION FOR APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO INTERCONNECTION
AGREEMENT [METROPOLITAN TELECOMMUNICATIONS OF IDAHO INC.] – Page 2
agreement; 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 Idaho, the Commission, the United States Congress, and the Federal
Communications Commission. Expeditious approval of this Amendment will enable MetTel to
interconnect with CenturyLink facilities and to provide customers with increased choices among
local telecommunications services.
CenturyLink further requests that the Commission approve this Amendment without a
hearing. Because this Amendment was reached through voluntary negotiations, it does not raise
issues requiring a hearing and does not concern other parties not a party to the negotiations.
Expeditious approval would further the public interest.
Respectfully submitted this 30th day of August, 2022.

Q Amendment to CDS-041213-0017 (v.01.22.2020-4)
ATTACHMENT 1

1. UNE Analog Loops Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Orders, the terms and
conditions under which CLEC may order and maintain Analog Unbundled Loops, as
defined in Section 9.2.2 provided in the Agreement and Two-Wire/Four-Wire Unbundled
Distribution Loop, as provided in Section 9.3.2.1.1 of the Agreement (together, referred
to as Analog Unbundled Loops ) are altered as follows:
a. Effective Date to February 2, 2020 - During the time period from the Effective
Date of this Amendment until February 2, 2020, CLEC may order Analog
Unbundled Loops pursuant to the applicable terms and conditions of the
Agreement. In addition, CLEC may make changes in existing Analog Unbundled
Loop arrangements, also pursuant to the applicable terms of the Agreement.
b. February 2, 2020 to August 2, 2022 - After February 2, 2020, CLEC cannot
order any Analog Unbundled Loops from CenturyLink pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Agreement.
i. For any Unbundled Analog Loops procured under the terms of the
Agreement (Existing Analog Loops ) on February 2, 2020 or prior,
CenturyLink will continue to provide such Existing Analog Loops pursuant
to the terms of the agreement, including the applicable rates delineated in
Exhibit A of the Agreement.
ii. CLEC cannot make any changes to such Existing Analog Loops, as they
will be treated in a grandfathered status, with continued receipt or
disconnection of the Existing Analog Loops the only options under the
Agreement available to CLEC. If CLEC issues an order to change such
services, it will be treated as a conversion to Special Access services
being provided solely under the Tariffs, rather than under the Agreement.
iii. CLEC agrees that it will no longer submit any orders for Unbundled
Analog Loops under the Agreement from CenturyLink after February 2,
2020. CLEC agrees that it is the responsibility of the CLEC to ensure that
no further orders for such Analog Unbundled Loops under the Agreement
are submitted after February 2, 2020.
1. In order to ensure compliance with these provisions, the Parties
agree that CenturyLink, on a no more than quarterly basis, may
conduct an audit of CLEC s order activity after February 2, 2020,
in order to identify any mistaken instances of attempting to order
Analog Unbundled Loops under the terms of the Agreement.
2. Should such instances occur, the Parties further agree that
CenturyLink will request CLEC to disconnect such services and
order them as new by ordering the Special Access service under
the applicable Tariff, changing the applicable rate charged, and
CenturyLink may issue a bill using the effective date of the
changes that the applicable Unbundled Analog Loop was
originally ordered (Analog Loop True-Up Bill ). CLEC agrees not

August 1, 2022/nap/UNE Forbearance Amd/Negotiated/Metropolitan/ID 4
Q Amendment to CDS-041213-0017 (v.01.22.2020-4)
to contest such Analog Loop True-Up Bills unless such billing is
not consistent with the applicable Tariff.
iv. CLEC agrees that any provisions in the Agreement that provide for Line
Splitting or Loop Splitting are also removed and may no longer be
ordered, as they all involve an order of an Unbundled Analog Loop. Any
existing arrangements will be maintained during the time period of this
section.
c. After August 2, 2022 - The Parties agree that CenturyLink will no longer provide
any Unbundled Analog Loops under the terms of the Agreement after August 2,
2022, including any arrangements for Line Splitting or Loop Splitting. CLEC is
solely responsible for either disconnecting such Analog Unbundled Loops prior to
August 2, 2022 or converting them to a service under the applicable Tariffs. For
any Analog Unbundled Loops in place as of August 2, 2022, CLEC agrees that
CenturyLink will convert any such Analog Unbundled Loops to the appropriate
Special Access service under the applicable Tariff, and CLEC is then responsible
for such services under that Tariff. In addition, should any charges be necessary
as part of that conversion, CLEC agrees that it is responsible for payment of such
charges and will not dispute application of such charges necessary for the
conversion. As Line Splitting and Loop Splitting are not available service under
CenturyLink s Tariffs, CLEC must convert to alternative arrangements that meet
its needs, as such arrangements will otherwise be terminated after August 2,
2022.
d. Alternative Analog Unbundled Loops Commercial Arrangements The
Parties understand and agree that the Forbearance Orders specifically permit
alternative commercial arrangements for the provision of UNEs that are impacted
by the Forbearance Orders. Nothing in this Amendment either requires
CenturyLink to enter into such alternative arrangements or prohibits the Parties
from reaching an agreement on terms and conditions of such alternative
arrangements. The Parties agree that nothing in such alternative arrangement
would ever be intended to change any of the obligations under this Agreement,
rather to be in parallel to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
e. UNE Combinations Any UNE Combinations provided under the Agreement
that might include UNE Analog Loop are also treated as UNE Analog Loops
under this Agreement.
2. UNE Transport - Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Orders, the terms and
conditions under which CLEC may order and maintain Unbundled Dedicated Interoffice
Transport (UDIT ), as provided in Section 9.6.1.1 of the Agreement and Enhanced
Extended Loop (EEL ), as provided in Section 9.23.3.7 of the Agreement (together,
referred to as UNE Transport ) are altered as follows:
a. Effective Date to January 12, 2020 - During the time period from the Effective
Date of this Amendment until January 12, 2020, CLEC may order UNE Transport
pursuant to the applicable terms and conditions of the Agreement. In addition,
CLEC may make changes in existing UNE Transport arrangements, also
pursuant to the applicable terms of the Agreement.

Q Amendment to CDS-041213-0017 (v.01.22.2020-4)
b. January 12, 2020 to July 12, 2022 - After January 12, 2020, CLEC cannot order
any UNE Transport from CenturyLink pursuant to the applicable provisions of the
Agreement that has each endpoint in one of the Serving Wire Centers listed on
the Wholesale website: http://www.centurylink.com/wholesale/clecs/nta.html#UNE-F
to this Amendment (Forbearance UNE Transport ). For any UNE Transport that
does not meet the definition of Forbearance UNE Transport, such UNE Transport
will continue to be available and provided under the terms of the Agreement,
including the terms under which it may be withdrawn.
i. For any Forbearance UNE Transport procured under the terms of the
Agreement (Existing Forbearance UNE Transport ) on January 12, 2020
or prior, CenturyLink will continue to provide such Existing Forbearance
UNE Transport pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, including the
applicable rates delineated in Exhibit A of the Agreement.
ii. CLEC cannot make any changes to such Existing UNE Transport, as they
will be treated in a grandfathered status, with continued receipt or
disconnection of the Existing UNE Transport the only options under the
Agreement available to CLEC. If CLEC issues an order to change such
services, it will be treated as a conversion to Special Access services
being provided solely under the Tariffs, rather than under the Agreement.
iii. CLEC agrees that it will no longer submit any orders for Forbearance
UNE Transport under the Agreement from CenturyLink after January 12,
2020. CLEC agrees that it is the CLEC s responsibility to ensure that no
further orders for such Forbearance UNE Transport under the Agreement
are submitted after January 12, 2020.
1. In order to ensure compliance with these provisions, the Parties
agree that CenturyLink, on a no more than quarterly basis, may
conduct an audit of CLEC s order activity after January 12, 2020,
in order to identify any mistaken instances of attempting to order
Forbearance UNE Transport under the terms of the Agreement.
2. Should such instances occur, the Parties further agree that
CenturyLink will convert such services to the Special Access
service under the applicable Tariff, changing the applicable rate
charged as needed, and issue a bill to make the effective date of
the charges be the date the applicable Forbearance UNE
Transport was originally ordered (UNE Transport True-Up Bill ).
CLEC agrees not to contest such UNE Transport True-Up Bills
unless such billing is not consistent with the applicable Tariff.
c. After July 12, 2022 - The Parties agree that CenturyLink will no longer provide
any Forbearance UNE Transport under the terms of the Agreement after July 12,
2022. CLEC is solely responsible for either disconnecting such Forbearance
UNE Transport prior to July 12, 2022 or converting to Special Access service
under the applicable Tariffs. For any Forbearance UNE Transport in place as of
July 12, 2022, CLEC agrees that CenturyLink will convert any such Forbearance
UNE Transport to the appropriate Special Access service under the applicable
Tariff, and CLEC is then responsible for such services under that Tariff. In
addition, should any charges be necessary as part of that conversion, CLEC

understand and agree that the Forbearance Orders specifically permit alternative

Forbearance Orders. Nothing in this Amendment either requires CenturyLink to
