Mr. Tim Stinson Dear Mr. Stinson: RE: Agreement 1235/00 - Bluewater TV Cable Ltd / Bell Aliant Regional Communications - Master Agreement for Local Interconnection On 7 December 2007, the Commission received an application by Bluewater TV Cable Ltd in which the company requested Commission's approval of the Master Agreement for Local Interconnection between itself and Bell Aliant Regional Communications. Commission staff notes that in Forbearance with respect to certain inter-carrier agreements filed pursuant to section 29 of the Telecommunications Act, Telecom Decision CRTC 2007-129, 14 December 2007 (Decision 2007-129), the Commission determined that Master agreements for local interconnection (MALIs) that were identical to Commission-approved models no longer had to be filed for Commission approval. Moreover, the Commission also determined that the Schedule C to a MALI would be deemed approved upon filing with the Commission, with the Commission reserving the power to amend, suspend or disallow such agreements back to the date of filing, if necessary Commission staff also notes, however, that existing LECs must provide the Commission with the name of the parties and the date of execution of any Commission-approved standard form MALI on a quarterly basis, within fourteen days of the close of the quarter in question. Consequently, the Commission will not approve the standard form MALI filed by the company. Moreover, the Schedule C to the MALI is deemed approved. Yours sincerely, Original signed by
Suzanne Bédard cc: Joëlle Bernier, CRTC, (819) 994-0551, joelle.bernier@crtc.gc.ca Date Modified: 2007-12-21 |
