Ordering 7.4.1 When ordering LIS, the ordering Party shall specify requirements on the Access Service Request (ASR): 1) the type and number of Interconnection facilities to terminate at the Point of Interconnection in the Serving Wire Center; 2) the type of interoffice transport, (i.e., direct trunked transport or tandem switched transport); 3) the number of Ports to be provisioned at an End Office Switch or local Tandem Switch; and 4) any optional features. When the ordering Party requests facilities, routing, or optional features different than those determined to be available, the Parties will work cooperatively in determining an acceptable configuration, based on available facilities, equipment and routing plans.
7.4.2 For each NXX Code assigned to CLEC by the NANPA, CLEC will provide CenturyLink with the CLLI codes of the CenturyLink Tandem Switches and CLEC's Point of Interface to which traffic associated with the NXX will be routed. For NXX Codes assigned to existing LIS trunk groups, CLEC will also provide CenturyLink with the CenturyLink assigned two-six code (TGSN) to which each NXX will be routed. Information that is not currently available in the LERG may be provided via the NPA NXX Code Request Routing Form available on the CenturyLink web site: Either Party shall respond to a special request for a NPA NXX Code Request Routing Form when a single Switch is served by multiple trunk groups.
7.4.3 When either Party has ordered a DS3 Entrance Facility or private line facility, that Party will order the appropriate DS1 facility required and identify the channels of the DS3 to be used to provide connecting facility assignments (CFA). Also, if either Party has provided or ordered a DS1 Entrance Facility or private line facility, that Party will be responsible for identification of the DS0 channels of the DS1 private line to be used to provide CFA.
7.4.4 A joint planning meeting will precede initial trunking orders. These meetings will result in agreement and commitment that both Parties can implement the proposed plan and the transmittal of Access Service Requests (ASRs) to initiate order activity. The Parties will provide their best estimate of the traffic distribution to each End Office Switch subtending the Tandem Switch.
7.4.5 If CLEC uses a method of interconnection of one POI in the LATA or the access tandem for local traffic in accordance with Section 7.1.2 and/or 7.2.2.9.6, CenturyLink and CLEC will work together to review CLEC’s network configuration in order to ensure correct and complete ASR ordering.
7.4.6 Service intervals and Due Dates for initial establishment of trunking arrangements at each new Switch location of Interconnection between the Parties will be determined on an Individual Case Basis.
7.4.7 CenturyLink will establish intervals for the provision of LIS trunks that conform to the performance objectives set forth in Section 20. CenturyLink will provide notice to CLEC of any changes to the LIS trunk intervals consistent with the Change Management Process (CMP) applicable to the PCAT. Operational processes within CenturyLink work centers are discussed as part of the CMP. CenturyLink agrees that CLEC shall not be held to the requirements of the PCAT.
7.4.8 The ordering Party may cancel an order at any time prior to notification that service is available. If the ordering Party is unable to accept service within thirty (30) Days after the Service Date, the provider has the following options:

OneTone will obtain access to customer record information only in strict compliance with applicable laws, rules, or regulations of the state in which the service is provided. BellSouth reserves the right to audit OneTone’s access to customer record information. If a BellSouth audit of OneTone’s access to customer record information reveals that OneTone is accessing customer record information without having obtained the proper End User authorization, BellSouth upon reasonable notice to OneTone may take corrective action, including but not limited to suspending or terminating OneTone’s electronic access to BellSouth’s OSS functionality.
