Mr. Jim Rule Dear Mr. Brazeau and Mr. Rule: Re: Part VII Application by Shaw Cablesystems Limited seeking access to highways and other public places within the jurisdiction of the District of Maple Ridge In Shaw Cablesystems Limited's (Shaw) application dated 30 March 2007, Shaw has requested, among other things, an order granting Shaw immediate access to highways and other public places in the District of Maple Ridge on terms and conditions consistent with Ledcor/Vancouver - construction, operation and maintenance of transmission lines in Vancouver , Telecom Decision CRTC 2001-23, 25 January 2001 (Decision 2001-23) and as contained in the template Municipal Access Agreement (MAA) attached to the application, or to such other conditions as the Commission may determine. Commission staff notes that in the Application, Shaw noted that it has been trying to negotiate the terms of municipal access with the District of Maple Ridge since April 2005 in order to lay cable in underground facilities in Maple Ridge. Shaw also noted that it has had to operate and maintain its existing transmission lines and related facilities in Maple Ridge without the benefit of an agreement since Shaw acquired the Maple Ridge system assets from Rogers Cable TV Limited in November 2000. Shaw noted that with summer season rapidly approaching, it was imperative that this situation be resolved. Accordingly, Shaw requested an abridged time period for comments and reply pursuant to the CRTC Telecommunications Rules of Procedure. In light of the above, Commission staff considers it appropriate to abridge the time period for comments and reply. Therefore, the District of Maple Ridge must file its comments with respect to the request for relief with the Commission, serving a copy on Shaw, by 19 April 2007 . Shaw must file its reply with respect to the request for relief with the Commission, serving a copy on the District of Maple Ridge, by 24 April 2007 . The information should also be forwarded to Lynne Fancy, at lynne.fancy@crtc.gc.ca . Where a document is to be filed or served by a specific date, the document must be actually received, and not merely sent, by that date. Yours sincerely, 'Original signed by L. Fancy'
