RE:MOTION BY AT&T FOR EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE REPLY
COMMENTS IN CASE NO. GNR-02-11, CENTURYTEL'S REQUEST FOR
APPROVAL OF TARIFF CONTAINING DEPOSIT REQUIREMENTS.
On September 5 2002, AT&T Communications of the Mountain States, Inc. filed a
Motion for an Extension of Time to File Reply Comments in this case. AT&T contends this
extension of time is necessary in order to respond to the many important issues that have been raised
by the filed comments. Accordingly, the Company requests that the Commission grant an extension
of time to file reply comments until September 19, 2002. WorldCom concurs with AT&T's Motion.
No other party has filed a response to the Motion to this point.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
After reviewing the record in this case, Staff has no objection to the Commission
granting AT&T's Motion. Staff believes that allowing the parties additional time to file reply
comments will develop the record more fully and ultimately assist the Commission in its review of
this case. If the Commission grants AT&T's Motion , Staff suggests that the Commission allow
interested person and parties to file reply comments by Monday, September 30, 2002.
