Re: Requested Adoption Under Section 252(i) of the Communications Act
Dear Mr. Koch:
Verizon Pennsylvania Inc. (“Verizon”), a Pennsylvania corporation, with principal place of business at 1717 Arch Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103, has received correspondence stating that RNK Pennsylvania, Inc. (“RNK”), a Massachusetts corporation, with principal place of business at 333 Elm Street, Suite 310, Dedham, MA 02026 wishes, pursuant to Section 252(i) of the Communications Act, to adopt the terms of the Interconnection Agreement between D&E Systems, Inc (“D&E”) and Verizon that was approved by the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (the “Commission”) as an effective agreement in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as such agreement exists on the date hereof (including, without limitation, Amendment 1 thereto) after giving effect to operation of law (the ‘Terms”). I understand RNK has a copy of the Terms. Please note the following with respect to RNK’s adoption of the Terms.
| | |
1. | By RNK’s countersignature on this letter, RNK hereby represents and agrees to the following seven points: |
| |
| A. | RNK adopts (and agrees to be bound by) the Terms and, in applying the Terms, agrees that RNK shall be substituted in place of D&E Systems, Inc and D&E in the Terms wherever appropriate. |
1
| | | |
| B. | 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 0336) 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.S.C. Section 251(c)(3) or by 47 C.F.R. Part 51. Moreover, Verizon, on February 26, 2004, filed a petition at the Commission to arbitrate amendments to interconnection agreements (including the Terms) with respect to the Triennial Review Order (“TRO Arbitration”). If D&E is a party to the TRO Arbitration at the time the Commission issues an effective order approving an amendment with respect to the Triennial Review Order in the TRO Arbitration (an “Approved Amendment”): (i) the terms of such Approved Amendment shall be deemed to amend this adoption effective on the effective date of such Commission order, (ii) RNK agrees to be bound by the terms of such Approved Amendment effective on the effective date of such Commission order, and (iii) Verizon and RNK shall execute an amendment to this adoption to memorialize that this adoption is amended by the terms of such Approved Amendment effective on the effective date of such Commission order; provided, however, failure by either party to do so shall not be cited as a basis for contesting the effectiveness of the provisions in subsections (i) and (ii) above. |
| | |
| C. | Notice to RNK and Verizon as may be required or permitted under the Terms shall be provided as follows: |

| | |
| D. | RNK represents and warrants that it is a certified provider of local telecommunications service in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and that its adoption of the Terms will cover services in Verizon Pennsylvania’s service territory in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania only. |
| | |
| E. | In the event an interconnection agreement between Verizon and RNK is currentlyin effect in the former Bell Atlantic service territory within the Commonwealth ofPennsylvania (the “Original ICA”), this adoption shall be an amendment andrestatement 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. 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. |
| | |
| F. | Verizon’s standard pricing schedule for interconnection agreements in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (as such schedule may be amended from time to time) (attached as Appendix A hereto) shall apply to RNK’s adoption of the Terms. RNK 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 different wording or phrasing in the pricing schedule does not alter the obligations and rights set forth in the Terms. |
| | |
| G. | RNK’s adoption of the Terms shall become effective on April 20, 2007. Verizon shall file this adoption letter with the Commission promptly upon receipt of an original of this letter countersigned by RNK as to the points set out in Paragraph One hereof. The term and termination provisions of the Terms shall govern RNK’s adoption of the Terms. |
| | |
2. | As the Terms are being adopted by RNK 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 RNK’s adoption of the Terms. |
| | |
3. | 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. |
| |
4. | Verizon reserves the right to deny RNK’s application of the Terms, in whole or in part, at any time: |
3
| | |
| A. | when the costs of providing the Terms to RNK are greater than the costs of providing them to D&E; |
| | |
| B. | if the provision of the Terms to RNK is not technically feasible; and/or |
| �� | |
| C. | to the extent that Verizon otherwise is not required to make the Terms available to RNK under applicable law. |
| | |
5. | 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 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 theFCC Internet Order,not pursuant to adoption of the Terms.2 Moreover, in light of theFCC 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, theFCC Internet Ordermade clear that carriers may not adopt provisions of an existing interconnection agreement to the extent that such provisions provide compensation for Internet traffic.4 |
| |
6. | Should RNK attempt to apply the Terms in a manner that conflicts with Paragraphs Twothrough Paragraphs Five above, Verizon reserves its rights to seek appropriatelegal and/or equitable relief. |
| |
7. | In the event that a voluntary or involuntary petition has been or is in the future filed against RNK 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.S.C. § 366, shall be preserved, and RNK’s adoption of the Terms shall in no way impair such rights of Verizon; and (B) all rights of RNK resulting from RNK’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.S.C. § 366. |
