Unbundled Digital Loops 2.3.1 BellSouth will offer Unbundled Digital Loops (UDL). UDLs are service specific, will be designed, will be provisioned with test points (where appropriate), and will come standard with OC and a DLR. The various UDLs are intended to support a specific digital transmission scheme or service.
2.3.2 BellSouth shall make available the following UDLs, subject to restrictions set forth herein:
Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Xxxx has requested an Unbundled Loop and BellSouth uses IDLC systems to provide the local service to the End User and BellSouth has a suitable alternate facility available, BellSouth will make such alternative facilities available to Xxxx. If a suitable alternative facility is not available, then to the extent it is technically feasible, BellSouth will implement one of the following alternative arrangements for Xxxx (e.g. hairpinning):
1. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to any spare copper that exists to the customer premises.
2. Roll the circuit(s) from the IDLC to an existing DLC that is not integrated.
3. If capacity exists, provide "side-door" porting through the switch.
4. If capacity exists, provide "Digital Access Cross Connect System (DACS)- door" porting (if the IDLC routes through a DACS prior to integration into the switch).
2.6.2 Arrangements 3 and 4 above require the use of a designed circuit. Therefore, non- designed Loops such as the SL1 voice grade and UCL-ND may not be ordered in these cases.
2.6.3 If no alternate facility is available, and upon request from Xxxx, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Xxxx will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
COVID-19 Vaccine Passports Pursuant to Texas Health and Safety Code, Section 161.0085(c), Contractor certifies that it does not require its customers to provide any documentation certifying the customer’s COVID-19 vaccination or post-transmission recovery on entry to, to gain access to, or to receive service from the Contractor’s business. Contractor acknowledges that such a vaccine or recovery requirement would make Contractor ineligible for a state-funded contract.
School Closings 1. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies all employees designated as 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 (twelve month) employees shall be expected to work their regular shift.
2. When regularly scheduled student attendance days are canceled due to weather or other emergencies, employees who are less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 (12-month) employees generally do not report to work and shall not be paid for the day if not worked. For said employees, pay for up to a maximum of 6 days may be received if an employee converts a sick day that was earned, prior to such a day that was cancelled, pursuant to Article 18, E. 3. If the days are required by law to be made up for State Aid or contracted obligations, such employees not working shall be scheduled to work on and be paid for the days later designated by the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board and in respect to other collective bargaining agreements, as make-up hours. If the canceled days do not count as days of instruction under the State Aid Act and the Board determines the canceled days should be rescheduled, such employees who did not work the canceled days shall be scheduled to work days designated on the official school calendar, determined solely by the Board, and be paid for the rescheduled days after working said days. Any employee who has begun work prior to the school closing will be paid the employee’s hourly rate for time worked prior to cancellation. In no event will employees receive less than two hours pay if they report for work prior to cancellation. As an exception to the above-referenced practice, less than 230 day or less than teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees working more than the teacher work year may voluntarily work when regularly scheduled student attendance days needing to be made up are canceled due to weather or other emergencies pursuant to the stipulations that follow:
a. The supervisor, after receiving approval of the Human Resources department administration, may approve of the employee working the day;
b. The day worked shall not result in any future non-workday that is a student attendance day;
c. Approval of such a workday shall not result in or relate to any request for additional workdays later in the school year. This exception does not apply for any employee working the teacher work year (or less) or to 230 day or teacher work year + days to equal 230 employees.
3. On days when students are released early for weather or other emergencies in any or all buildings, employees shall work their regular shift unless hazardous or unhealthful conditions, as determined by the Superintendent, exist. In such circumstances employees shall be released when notified by the Superintendent.
4. Whenever the administration delays the start of classes at some or all of the buildings, employees shall be expected to work their regular hours. Should it be necessary to make up the day, employees will be paid for the additional day.
5. If an employee is unable to report to work due to inclement weather, she/he may use any emergency day or vacation leave time provided to her/him under the contract.
6. When conditions develop during a day requiring the early closing of the offices, all office employees will be paid for a regular workday for their category.
7. If school is canceled and the employee has been approved for a paid leave day, paid leave time will not be deducted. An employee on unpaid leave of any sort shall not be paid for any day that is canceled due to weather or other emergency as referenced in “2”.

Reverse ADSL Loops If a CLEC’s ADSL Transmission Unit (including those integrated into DSLAMs) is attached to Sprint’s Network and if an ADSL Copper Loop should start at an outside location, and is looped through a host or remote, and then to the subscriber, the copper plant from the outside location to the Sprint host or remote central office must be a facility dedicated to ADSL transmission only and not part of Sprint’s regular feeder or distribution plant.

School Closures The District may close schools for academic purposes or reduce programming due to public health, safety, severe weather or any other purpose as determined by the District. The District shall not owe Provider any compensation for times when services of Therapists are canceled, declined, or not required due to closure, reduction in programming, or exclusion of Therapists due to health risk assessment screenings or any other reason, and Provider agrees to indemnify District for Therapist claims arising from all such actions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required by Section 10-20.56(d-15) of the School Code (105 ILCS 5/10-20.56(d-15)), when enforceable under law, the Parties understand that the District may determine it is required to pay Provider the daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for Therapists for any day of school closure or e-learning day if such closure precludes the Provider’s employees from performing its regularly scheduled duties and employees would have reported for work but for the closure, unless the day is rescheduled and the employees will be paid their daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for the rescheduled day when services are rendered. The Parties agree such payment constitute full satisfaction of Section 10-20.56(d-15). As a precondition to these payments being made, Provider shall provide an invoice for the foregoing pay and benefits costs; however, Provider will not include such pay and benefits costs for any school closure or e-learning day on any invoices until the last invoice of the school year in order to allow the District the opportunity to determine if the day will be rescheduled. When a payment is to be made by the District under this provision, Provider represents and warrants that it shall pay its employees their daily, regular rate of pay and benefits for any such school closure or e-learning day. Upon request, Provider shall provide the District with certified payrolls as evidence of compliance with this section. The District retains sole discretion to determine whether Section 10-20.56(d-15) applies to this Agreement or any day of school closure and, if the District determines such law is applicable, the District retains the discretion to determine if and when a school closure day is rescheduled. For purposes of this section, “school closures” shall not include holidays or other days of closure reflected on the District’s school calendar for which Provider is not scheduled to provide services under the Agreement.
Certification as Small Contractor or Minority Business Enterprise This paragraph was intentionally left blank.
School Closing In the event that school is closed for any reason and the School District does not require employees to perform services, employees shall be compensated as follows:
Subd. 1. In the event school is closed for a full day, the School Board will have the authority to determine if, how, and when such time will be made up. If make-up time is required by the School Board but is not completed by the employee, the employee’s compensation shall be reduced by the number of hours the employee was paid for the closed day. If the School Board does not require make-up time, there shall be no reduction in pay for the day that school was closed.
