Each Party agrees to provide the necessary Traffic data in conjunction with any such audit in a timely manner. 4.2 To the extent technically and economically feasible, each Party shall pass unaltered Calling Party Number (CPN) information on each call. The Parties agree that they will not populate the CPN field in the call detail record with a wholesale Customer's billing or local routing number but will utilize the final Customer's CPN or billing number. The Parties further agree to comply with 47 C.F.R. §64.1601(a). 4.2.1 Where possible, actual call detail records including the CPN, will be used by the terminating Party for purposes of auditing the scope of traffic. Where a terminating Party has the capability, it will use the actual call detail records including the CPN information associated with each specific call to identify traffic delivered by the other Party as either Local Traffic or traffic that is not within the scope of this Agreement. 4.2.2 When a terminating Party receives insufficient call detail or the CPN is missing or masked, and therefore cannot determine whether the call is or is not within the scope of this Agreement, and if the percentage of traffic delivered with CPN and having sufficient detail is greater than 90% of total calls delivered, the calls without sufficient detail or CPN will be presumed to be in the same proportion as the calls having sufficient detail and CPN. If traffic delivered by one Party to the other Party has CPN and sufficient call detail on fewer than 90% of the calls, the terminating Party may provide written notice of a billing dispute to the other Party delivering such calls below the 90 percent threshold. Upon such notice, the Party delivering the traffic to the other Party (the "Delivering Party) shall have 30 days to investigate and correct the lack of CPN and report the date the problem was corrected to the other Party (the "Terminating Party") or provide evidence indicating the nature of calls that have insufficient call detail or lack a CPN.
