9/4/03 Adhoc call with Covad

Attendees: John Berard/Covad, Crystal Soderlund/Qwest, John Gallegos/Qwest, Joan Pfeffer/Qwest, Lynn Stecklein/Qwest

Lynn Stecklein/Qwest stated that the purpose of this call was to provide a status/update on this request since Covad was not able to attend the monthly CMP systems meeting. She stated that there we wanted to let Covad know that we already provide the Line Loss report for Line & Loop Splitting to the CLEC of record.

Crystal Soderlund/Qwest further explained this existing process. John Berard/Qwest asked if this was considered a feature on the line and Crystal said no. Crystal also stated that we would never send this information to the DLEC of record. Qwest has always maintained that the customer of record for line splitting is only the UNE-P provider, and our customer for Loop Splitting is only the Unbundled Loop Provider. In the case of Line Splitting and Loop Splitting, our customer of record has a sub-contract with their DLEC provider, and Qwest has maintained that we will not involve ourselves with this agreement.

Lynn Stecklein/Qwest stated that Covad could find additional information on this subject in the PCAT. Lynn also asked if Covad would be willing to withdraw this CR.

John Berard/Covad stated that he would like to withdraw this request.

Lynn Stecklein/Qwest stated that we would discuss this CR in the September CMP meeting as pending withdrawal.

RE: SCR061703-02 Line Loss Report for line and loop splitting

Qwest has reviewed the information submitted as part of Change Request SCR061703-02. Based upon research that has been conducted following the Clarification Meeting (held June 27, 2003) Qwest is still examining the issue. Qwest will continue to research the problem and provide an updated response at the July Systems CMP Meeting.

At the July Monthly Systems CMP Meeting, CMP participants will be given the opportunity to comment on this Change Request and provide additional clarifications. Qwest is interested in the experiences of the CMP community as relates to this issue. Qwest will incorporate any feedback received at the next Monthly Systems CMP Meeting into further evaluation of this Change Request.

Sincerely, Qwest
