Asotin Telephone Company/ dba TDS Telecom

State: OREGON

StudyArea: 532404

54.313(a)(l) Progress Report on Five Year Service Quality Improvement Plan pursuantto§54.202(a)

As an Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (I LEC) and Eligible Telecommunications Carrier (ETC)/Asotin

Telephone Company has been providing ubiquitous, high-quatity voice telecommunications services in

its study area for many years. To accomplish and maintain this service level/ Asotin has made significant

historical investment to deploy, operate, and maintain an integrated/ highfy-reiiable network. In

addition to its own capita! spending, Asotin draws from the federal Universal Service Fund (USF).

Universal service support has been (and continues to be) critical in enabling Asotin's services in its rural

markets to be reasonably comparabie in quality and price to services in more urban markets/as

Congress mandated in the Telecommunications Act. Asotin draws USF support because the cost of

providing voice and data services in its rural study area are substantially higher than those in urban

areas, and thus a!! of the costs cannot be recovered solely from Asotin's customers while maintaining

reasonably comparable prices. Asotin has made investments to bring high speed data services to its

customers when the level of customer revenues and universal service support has made it financially

viable to do so.

ForAsotin/ federal high cost support is used to help offset ongoing network costs/ but the monies

received cover only a portion of the cost of updating and operating the network. In 2015, Asotin

received $57,196 in USF support while incurring ^^^BI in operating expenses. The attached Schedule

BsummarizesAsotin's actuaiexpenses for 2015. As evidenced by these support and expenditure

numbers provided for the current reporting year, the universal service support thatAsotin receives

covers only a fraction of its cost to provide service. Continued receipt of USF support is vital to helping

Asotin maintain reasonably comparable rates for focal exchange service; and to incrementaliy upgrade

its telecommunications facilities and equipment to help meet evolving service requirements and

maintain high quality service.

The content/ timing, and specific geographic locations of projects thatwilf be undertaken in the next five

years, will be determined based upon careful analysis of the dual pathways/ modei-based orrateof

return, for determining universal service support. The selection of future projects will be based on the

evaluation of many factors, including current consumer demand/ limited capital resources and

estimated amounts of universal service support available to Asotin under its selected path.

Regardless of the path ultimately selected, Asotin remains committed to utilizing available universal

service support to help maintain and improve network quality/ and where feasible, deploying advanced

technologies and new services/ expanding coverage and improving broadband speeds for its customers.

Line 330- Detail on Attempts (broadband)

Rule54.313(a)(3)

Carrier has implemented service availability tracking tools and employee training capabilities to respond

to direct customer requests for broadband services.

Upon receipt of anew broadband service request, Carrier's service advisors follow these steps for

provisioning the service:

1) The Camerservice advisor uses a customized service addressability software tool todetermine

if broadband service is available to the requested service address. If it is determined that

service is offered to the address, an installation order will be initiated and scheduled

immediately.

2) If the information in the service addressabiiity tool indicates that extension of broadband

service to the service address might be possible/ a field service technician is dispatched to the

customer premise to perform additional diagnostic testing. Such testing will determine whether

there are any reasonable adjustments to the network or customer facilities which can be made

to enable the provision of service, iftestsconfirm that broadband service canbe offered atthe

service address/ an order is initiated and service is provisioned.

3} In situations where Carrier'sterrestrial broadband service is not available to a requesting

customer/Carrier has partnered with Dish Networkto offer dishNET satellite broadband service

to customers. Carrier'sservice advisors are trainedto discuss and assist the customer in

ordering dishNET broadband service.

As the Commission acknowledged / some of the service areas served by rate of return carriers, like

Carrier, have characteristicsthat make it highly cost prohibitive to extend broadband service using

terrestrial wireline technology. Except as maybe noted in Carrier sS-year plan attached to this filing/

any further build-out of terrestrial broadband service to additional locations within its study area will be

dependent upon the cost of the technoiogy to be deployed and the capita! infrastructure funding level

available. After following the steps abovejf the service request is still unfulfilled/ it is due to the

customer's distance from a broadband capable central office or DSA. The capital cost to deploy fiber

and other equipment to shorten loop lengths to support broadband at the required levels wei! exceeds

any reasons bie projection of revenue and support funding available for such projects.

Line 510 - Description of Compliance with Service Quality Standards and

Consumer Protection

Rule 54.313(a)(5)

TDS Telecommunications Corporation's ILEC companies follow applicable federal and state

service quality and consumer protection rules. They comply with quality of service

requirements including monitoring and reporting service quality metrics where required. TDS

Telecom has implemented numerous consumer protection measures to protect customer

information. For example/ TDS implemented Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI)

policies and procedures that are consistent with the FCC's reguiations. Employees are required

to compiete CPNI training and in addition/ employees who have access to CPNI data receive

additional guidance through written procedures regarding customer authentication. Annually,

all employees are required to review TDS' Business Code of Conduct which includes information

and requirements on protecting sensitive customer information from improper use and

disclosure. TDS data privacy and security policies are reinforced through periodic training

required of all employees. Additional consumer protection measures include TDS" use of a

third-partyverifierto prevent unauthorized presubscribed interexchange carrier(PiC) changes

("Slamming") and the elimination of billing and collection arrangements that could have

potentially allowed unauthorized third-party charges to be added to customer's bills

("Cramming"),

TDS Emergency Operations Plan

Company is able to remain functional in an emergency situation through the use of back-up power to

ensure functionality without an external power source. The Company's standard for battery backup is 8

hours in offices with no generatorand4 hours in offices with a generator. This is ensured during semi-

annual routine maintenance which includes battery inspection/ cleaning/documentation of float voltage

and cell temperature/asweil as equalization or replacement if necessary. In addition, permanent

generators are present at significant wire centers to maintain power in the event a commercial power

failure extends beyond battery backup capabiiities. Also, portable generators are available for

deployment to remote wire centers without permanent generators. The Company's network is

engineered to provide maximum capacity in order to handle excess traffic in the event of traffic spikes

resulting from emergency situations. Company facilities are remotely monitored and managed by a

centralized Network Operations Center which is staffed 24 x 7,365 days a year. Technicians are able to

remotely access and respond to alarm conditions. By design, transport redundancy is built into the

telephony and data network on many levels and in the event of a hardware or circuit failure or traffic

spike, the networks a re able to self-correct in many cases or/ at many locations/ technicians are able to

manually switch network elements to standby facilities both locally and remotely.

Re: CC Docket No. 14-58Certification of Reasonable Steps Taken to Provide 10x1 Broadband Service

Dear Ms. Dortch:

As partoftheFCC's annual reportmg requirements for ETC re-certification. Rule54.313(f)(l)(i) requires carriers to certify that upon receiving a customer's reasonable request forbroadband service with speeds of 10 mbps download and 1 mbps upload, the carrier took reasonable stepsto provide service at those speeds.

TDS Telecommunications Corporation (TDS Telecom) owns and operates the telephonecompanies listed on the attachment. Each provides broadband service. Collectively through thesecompanies, TDS Telecom offers broadband service to 94% of its ILEC customers. Most of these

customers receive speeds of 5 mbps or faster.

In 2015, TDS Telecom completed a multi-year initiative to extend its broadbandcoverage to much of its rural serving area. This effort utilized grant funding available through theAmerican Recovery and Reinvestment Act and was administered by the Rural Utility Services (RUS).$100 million in grant funding was received while TDS Telecom invested an additional $25 million of itsown capital. At the conclusion of this initiative, broadband service was made available to an additional32,000 customers who were previously unserved.

At this time, and with today's available technology, TDS Telecom has extended itsbroadband footprint as far as is economically feasible absent additional funding through universal servicesupport and/or other state and federal grant programs. The 6% of customers that remain unserved live in

our mostmralandremote service areas. The cost to bring broadband to them, or to increase speeds to 10

x 1 for those who currently have service at slower speeds, would far exceed the revenue received from the

sale of those services. We continue to closely monitor emerging technologies and look for affordableways to serve these customers. As part of that effort, TDS Telecom is evaluating recent changes to the

universal service program for rate of return carriers to determine how the funds available going forward

can be utilized to efficiently extend broadband to additional customers in unserved areas and meet theevolving speed requirements for customers in underserved areas.

As Executive Vice President of TDS Telecommunications Corporation and an officerauthorized to give this certification, I hereby certify that TDS Telecom collectively and through each of

KILUA^IILU - AVAILAJLSI^ ^ UK rUtSLlL/ li^&rJL^ 11U1N

its subsidiaries listed on the attachment, has taken reasonable steps to provide 10x1 broadband serviceupon receipt of a reasonable request from a customer.

Sincerely,
