Trunk Utilization. 6.4.1 For the BellSouth Trunk Groups that are Final Trunk Groups (BellSouth Final Trunk Groups), BellSouth and ComSouth shall monitor traffic on each BellSouth Final Trunk Group that is ordered and installed. The Parties agree that the BellSouth Final Trunk Groups will be utilized at sixty percent (60%) of the time consistent busy hour utilization level within ninety (90) days of installation. The Parties agree that the BellSouth Final Trunk Groups will be utilized at eighty percent (80%) of the time consistent busy hour utilization level within one hundred eighty (180) days of installation. Any BellSouth Final Trunk Group not meeting the minimum thresholds set forth in this Section are defined as “under-utilized” trunks. Subject to Section 6.4.2 below, BellSouth may disconnect any under- utilized BellSouth Final Trunk Groups and ComSouth shall refund to BellSouth the associated nonrecurring and recurring trunk and facility charges paid by XxxxXxxxx, if any. 6.4.2 BellSouth’s CISC will notify ComSouth of any under-utilized BellSouth Trunk Groups and the number of such trunk groups that BellSouth wishes to disconnect. BellSouth will provide supporting information either by email or facsimile to the designated ComSouth interface. ComSouth will provide concurrence with the disconnection in seven (7) business days or will provide specific information supporting why the trunks should not be disconnected. Such supporting information should include expected traffic volumes (including traffic volumes generated due to Local Number Portability) and the timeframes within which ComSouth expects to need such trunks. XxxxXxxxx’s CISC Project Manager and Circuit Capacity Manager (CCM) will discuss the information with ComSouth to determine if agreement can be reached on the number of BellSouth Final Trunk Groups to be removed. If no agreement can be reached, BellSouth will issue disconnect orders to ComSouth. The due date of these orders will be four (4) weeks after ComSouth was first notified in writing of the underutilization of the trunk groups. 6.4.3 To the extent that any interconnection trunk group is utilized at a time-consistent busy hour of eighty percent (80%) or greater, the Parties may review the trunk groups and, if necessary, shall negotiate in good faith for the installation of augmented facilities. 6.4.4 For the two-way trunk groups, BellSouth and ComSouth shall monitor traffic on each interconnection trunk group that is ordered and installed.

Trunk Utilization. 3.8.1 AT&T and SouthEast shall monitor traffic on each interconnection trunk group that is installed pursuant to the initial interconnection trunk requirements and subsequent forecasts. At any time after the end of a calendar quarter, based on a review of the capacity utilization during such quarter for installed Reciprocal Trunk groups and/or two-way interconnection trunk groups, subject to the provision of the section following, after fifteen (15) business days advance written notice to SouthEast, AT&T may disconnect any Non-utilized Reciprocal Trunk(s) and SouthEast shall refund to AT&T any associated trunk and facility charges paid by AT&T. In addition, AT&T may request SouthEast to disconnect any Non-utilized two-way interconnection trunk(s), if AT&T has determined that the trunk group is not being utilized at eighty percent (80%) of the time consistent busy hour utilization level, provided that the Parties have not otherwise agreed. SouthEast shall comply with such request, subject to Section 3.8.2 below. Non-utilized trunks are defined as the trunks not being utilized as a result of a time consistent busy hour utilization of less than 80%. 3.8.2 Within ten (10) business days following the notice prescribed in the section above, SouthEast may request that AT&T not disconnect or not request disconnection for some or all of the Non-utilized Trunks, in which event AT&T shall keep the trunks in service and may invoice SouthEast for, and SouthEast shall pay, all applicable recurring and nonrecurring trunk and facility access tariff charges for the Non-utilized Trunks. The charges shall be applied retroactive to the date on which such trunks were installed and to continue until such trunks are disconnected, or to the extent SouthEast requests that such trunks remain in service, until the trunk group reaches an eighty percent (80%) time-consistent busy hour utilization level. In addition, SouthEast shall reimburse AT&T for any nonrecurring and/or recurring charges AT&T may have paid to SouthEast for the Non-utilized Trunks and for any trunk installation expense AT&T incurred. This expense shall equal the nonrecurring installation charge for trunks in AT&T’s intrastate tariff. Furthermore, the SouthEast forecasts for each subsequent forecast period shall be automatically reduced by the number of Reciprocal Trunks and/or two-way interconnection trunks that have been determined to be subject to disconnection pursuant to the foregoing procedures. 3.8.3 To the e...

  • MWBE Utilization Plan A. In accordance with 5 NYCRR § 142.4, Bidders are required to submit a completed Utilization Plan on Form MWBE 100 with their bid. B. The Utilization Plan shall list the MWBEs the Bidder intends to use to perform the Contract, a description of the Contract scope of work the Bidder intends the MWBE to perform to meet the goals on the Contract, and the estimated or, if known, actual dollar amounts to be paid to an MWBE. By signing the Utilization Plan, the Bidder acknowledges that making false representations or including information evidencing a lack of good faith as part of, or in conjunction with, the submission of a Utilization Plan is prohibited by law and may result in penalties including, but not limited to, termination of a contract for cause, loss of eligibility to submit future bids, and/or withholding of payments. Any modifications or changes to the agreed participation by New York State Certified MWBEs after the Contract award and during the term of the Contract must be reported on a revised MWBE Utilization Plan and submitted to OGS. C. By entering into the Contract, Bidder/Contractor understands that only sums paid to MWBEs for the performance of a commercially useful function, as that term is defined in 5 NYCRR § 140.1, may be applied towards the achievement of the applicable MWBE participation goal. When an MWBE is serving as a broker on the Contract, only 25 percent of all sums paid to a broker shall be deemed to represent the commercially useful function performed by the MWBE. D. OGS will review the submitted MWBE Utilization Plan and advise the Bidder of OGS acceptance or issue a notice of deficiency within 30 days of receipt. E. If a notice of deficiency is issued; Bidder agrees that it shall respond to the notice of deficiency, within 7 business days of receipt, by submitting to OGS a written remedy in response to the notice of deficiency. If the written remedy that is submitted is not timely or is found by OGS to be inadequate, OGS shall notify the Bidder and direct the Bidder to submit, within 5 business days of notification by OGS, a request for a partial or total waiver of MWBE participation goals on Form BDC 333. Failure to file the waiver form in a timely manner may be grounds for disqualification of the bid or proposal. F.

H. Bidder/Contractor further agrees that a failure to submit and/or use such completed MWBE Utilization Plan shall constitute a material breach of the terms of the Contract. Upon the occurrence of such a material breach, OGS shall be entitled to any remedy provided herein, including but not limited to, a finding of Contractor non- responsiveness.

  • Underutilization Underutilization of Interconnection Trunks and facilities exists when provisioned capacity of trunks in service for more than six (6) months is greater than the current need. This over-provisioning is an inefficient deployment and use of network resources and results in unnecessary costs. Those situations where more capacity exists than actual usage will be handled in the following manner: a. If a final trunk group is under seventy-five percent (75%) of CCS capacity or a high usage trunk group is under 90% of CCS capacity on a monthly average basis, for each month of any three (3) consecutive months period, either Party may request the issuance of an order to resize the trunk group, which shall be left with not less than twenty-five percent (25%) excess capacity. In all cases POI requirements and grade of service objectives shall be maintained. b. CLEC will send an ASR to CenturyLink to trigger changes to the Local Interconnection Trunk Groups based on capacity assessment.

  • Utilization Utilization shall be defined as Trunks Required as a percentage of Trunks In Service. 1 During implementation the Parties will mutually agree on an Economic Centum Call Seconds (ECCS) or some other means for the sizing of this trunk group. 4.6.3.1 In A Blocking Situation (Over-utilization): 4.6.3.1.1 In a blocking situation, CLEC is responsible for issuing ASRs on all two-way Local Only, Local Interconnection, Third Party and Meet Point Trunk Groups and one-way CLEC originating Local Only and/or Local Interconnection Trunk Groups to reduce measured blocking to design objective blocking levels based on analysis of trunk group data. If an ASR is not issued, AT&T-21STATE will issue a TGSR. CLEC will issue an ASR within three (3) business days after receipt and review of the TGSR. CLEC will note “Service Affecting” on the ASR. 4.6.3.1.2 In a blocking situation, AT&T-21STATE is responsible for issuing ASRs on one-way AT&T-21STATE originating Local Only and/or Local Interconnection Trunk Groups to reduce measured blocking to design objective blocking levels based on analysis of trunk group data. If an ASR is not issued, CLEC will issue a TGSR. AT&T- 21STATE will issue an ASR within three (3) business days after receipt and review of the TGSR. 4.6.3.1.3 If an alternate final Local Only Trunk Group or Local Interconnection Trunk Group is at seventy-five percent (75%) utilization, a TGSR may be sent to CLEC for the final trunk group and all subtending high usage trunk groups that are contributing any amount of overflow to the alternate final route. 4.6.3.1.4 If a direct final Meet Point Trunk Group is at seventy-five percent (75%) utilization, a TGSR may be sent to CLEC. If a direct final Third Party Trunk Group is at ninety percent (90%) utilization, a TGSR may be sent to CLEC.

  • Non-Utilization Fee The Borrower agrees to pay to the Bank a non-utilization fee equal to one-quarter of one percent (0.25%) of the total of (a) the Revolving Loan Commitment, minus (b) the sum of (i) the daily average of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding, plus (ii) the daily average of the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations, which non- utilization fee shall be (A) calculated on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days, (B) paid for the actual number of days elapsed, and (C) payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each month, commencing on September 30, 2006, and on the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

  • Service Availability You understand that Service availability is at all times conditioned upon the corresponding operation and availability of the communication systems used in communicating your instructions and requests to the Credit Union. We will not be liable or have any responsibility of any kind for any loss or damage thereby incurred by you in the event of any failure or interruption of such communication systems or services resulting from the act or omission of any third party, or from any other cause not reasonably within the control of the Credit Union.

  • System Availability Although we will try to provide continuous access to the Service, we cannot and do not guarantee that the Service will be available 100% of the time and will not be liable in the event Service is unavailable. Actual service or network performance is dependent on a variety of factors outside of our control. If you notify us within twenty-four (24) hours and we confirm an outage consisting of a period of two (2) hours in any calendar month, and not due to any service, act, or omission of you, a third party, your applications, equipment or facilities, or reasons outside of our control, you shall be eligible for a service credit. A service credit shall be computed as a pro-rated charge for one day of the regular monthly fees for the Service in the next monthly statement. Intermittent service outages for periods of less than two (2) hours are not considered service outages. Outages caused by routine scheduled maintenance are also not considered an outage. You shall receive advance notice no less than forty-eight (48) hours in advance of our scheduled maintenance. Scheduled maintenance will be performed between 12:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. CST.

  • Availability Control Personal Data will be protected against accidental or unauthorized destruction or loss.

  • EPP service availability Refers to the ability of the TLD EPP servers as a group, to respond to commands from the Registry accredited Registrars, who already have credentials to the servers. The response shall include appropriate data from the Registry System. An EPP command with “EPP command RTT” 5 times higher than the corresponding SLR will be considered as unanswered. If 51% or more of the EPP testing probes see the EPP service as unavailable during a given time, the EPP service will be considered unavailable.

  • DNS service availability Refers to the ability of the group of listed-­‐as-­‐authoritative name servers of a particular domain name (e.g., a TLD), to answer DNS queries from DNS probes. For the service to be considered available at a particular moment, at least, two of the delegated name servers registered in the DNS must have successful results from “DNS tests” to each of their public-­‐DNS registered “IP addresses” to which the name server resolves. If 51% or more of the DNS testing probes see the service as unavailable during a given time, the DNS service will be considered unavailable.
