INTERMEDIATE POINTS Clause Samples

INTERMEDIATE POINTS. (1) Work train crews engaged in any service covered by and paid for under the provisions of this Article may be laid up at intermediate points at the end of their day's work when necessary to do so. (2) When laid up at an intermediate point suitable sleeping and eating accommodation will be provided for Work train crews. Work train crews in work train service when laid up at other than a terminal will be paid continuous time if sleeping accommodations are not provided. When in wreck train service suitable sleeping accommodation may be provided on auxiliary. (3) Work crews will be provided transportation to their home terminal on scheduled rest days and return transportation to the tie-up point of the work train following their rest days, unless other arrangements have been mutually agreed to. (4) Work train crews will be given an opportunity for meals at reasonable times. Crews will not be required to be on duty for extended periods of time prior to being given an opportunity to take a meal break. Opportunities for meal breaks will be granted upon reasonable notice, one hour being deemed sufficient, from the crew of their desire to be provided with a meal break. Requests for meal breaks can be made any time after four hours on duty, in no case will the work train crew be required to work longer than six hours without being provided a meal break. It is not intended that this clause will be used to unduly disrupt work train operations or the opportunity to take a meal break. (5) Where boarding car facilities include facilities for providing meals to maintenance of way employees involved in the work associated with the work train, work train crews will be allowed to take their meals in such facilities. It is understood that this will not interfere with the service required from the work train to assist in the betterment work being performed where and when required.

  • Trunk Group Connections and Ordering 5.2.1 For both One-Way and Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, if Onvoy wishes to use a technically feasible interface other than a DS1 or a DS3 facility at the POI, the Parties shall negotiate reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.2 When One-Way or Two-Way Interconnection Trunks are provisioned using a DS3 interface facility, if Onvoy orders the multiplexed DS3 facilities to a Frontier Central Office that is not designated in the NECA 4 Tariff as the appropriate Intermediate Hub location (i.e., the Intermediate Hub location in the appropriate Tandem subtending area based on the LERG), and the provision of such facilities to the subject Central Office is technically feasible, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith reasonable terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes) for such arrangement; and, if the Parties cannot agree to such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, rates and implementation timeframes), either Party may utilize the Agreement’s dispute resolution procedures. 5.2.3 Each Party will identify its Carrier Identification Code, a three or four digit numeric code obtained from Telcordia, to the other Party when ordering a trunk group. 5.2.4 For multi-frequency (MF) signaling each Party will out pulse ten (10) digits to the other Party, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise. 5.2.5 Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to monitor trunk groups under its control and to augment those groups using generally accepted trunk- engineering standards so as to not exceed blocking objectives. Each Party agrees to use modular trunk-engineering techniques for trunks subject to this Attachment.

  • Pipelines Developer shall have no interest in the pipeline gathering system, which gathering system shall remain the sole property of Operator or its Affiliates and shall be maintained at their sole cost and expense.

  • Two-Way Interconnection Trunks 2.4.1 Where the Parties use Two-Way Interconnection Trunks for the exchange of traffic between Verizon and KDL, KDL, at its own expense, shall: 2.4.1.1 provide its own facilities to the technically feasible Point(s) of Interconnection on Verizon’s network in a LATA; and/or 2.4.1.2 obtain transport to the technically feasible Point(s) of Interconnection on Verizon’s network in a LATA (a) from a third party, or, (b) if Verizon offers such transport pursuant to this Agreement or an applicable Verizon Tariff, from Verizon. 2.4.2 Where the Parties use Two-Way Interconnection Trunks for the exchange of traffic between Verizon and KDL, Verizon, at its own expense, shall provide its own facilities to the technically feasible Point(s) of Interconnection on Verizon’s network in a LATA. 2.4.3 Prior to establishing any Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, KDL shall meet with Verizon to conduct a joint planning meeting (“Joint Planning Meeting”). At that Joint Planning Meeting, each Party shall provide to the other Party originating Centium Call Seconds (Hundred Call Seconds) information, and the Parties shall mutually agree on the appropriate initial number of End Office and Tandem Two-Way Interconnection Trunks and the interface specifications at the technically feasible Point(s) of Interconnection on Verizon’s network in a LATA at which the Parties interconnect for the exchange of traffic. Where the Parties have agreed to convert existing One-Way Interconnection Trunks to Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, at the Joint Planning Meeting, the Parties shall also mutually agree on the conversion process and project intervals for conversion of such One- Way Interconnection Trunks to Two-Way Interconnection Trunks. 2.4.4 On a semi-annual basis, KDL shall submit a good faith forecast to Verizon of the number of End Office and Tandem Two-Way Interconnection Trunks that KDL anticipates Verizon will need to provide during the ensuing two (2) year period for the exchange of traffic between KDL and Verizon. KDL’s trunk forecasts shall conform to the Verizon CLEC trunk forecasting guidelines as in effect at that time. 2.4.5 The Parties shall meet (telephonically or in person) from time to time, as needed, to review data on End Office and Tandem Two-Way Interconnection Trunks to determine the need for new trunk groups and to plan any necessary changes in the number of Two-Way Interconnection Trunks. 2.4.6 Two-Way Interconnection Trunks shall have SS7 Common Channel Signaling. The Parties agree to utilize B8ZS and Extended Super Frame (ESF) DS1 facilities, where available. 2.4.7 With respect to End Office Two-Way Interconnection Trunks, both Parties shall use an economic Centium Call Seconds (Hundred Call Seconds) equal to five (5). Either Party may disconnect End Office Two-Way Interconnection Trunks that, based on reasonable engineering criteria and capacity constraints, are not warranted by the actual traffic volume experienced. 2.4.8 Two-Way Interconnection Trunk groups that connect to a Verizon access Tandem shall be engineered using a design blocking objective of ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ B.005 during the average time consistent busy hour. Two-Way Interconnection Trunk groups that connect to a Verizon local Tandem shall be engineered using a design blocking objective of ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ B.01 during the average time consistent busy hour. Verizon and KDL shall engineer Two-Way Interconnection Trunks using Telcordia Notes on the Networks SR 2275 (formerly known as BOC Notes on the LEC Networks SR-TSV-002275). 2.4.9 The performance standard for final Two-Way Interconnection Trunk groups shall be that no such Interconnection Trunk group will exceed its design blocking objective (B.005 or B.01, as applicable) for three

  • Loop Provisioning Involving Integrated Digital Loop Carriers 2.6.1 Where Freedom 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 Freedom. 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 Freedom (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 Freedom, and if agreed to by both Parties, BellSouth may utilize its Special Construction (SC) process to determine the additional costs required to provision facilities. Freedom will then have the option of paying the one-time SC rates to place the Loop.
