Description: Summary: On March 5, 2001, Greg Gierczak, Executive Director-Regulatory, Roseville Telephone Company (Roseville), met with Lester Wong, advisor to Cmmr. Bilas, in San Francisco. Gierczak explained that the order granting rehearing of D00-06-080 was flawed because it ordered the adoption of interim rates based on Pacific Bell?s statewide average cost, not Roseville?s company-specific costs, and that this was impermissible even if subject to a true-up following further proceedings. Gierczak explained that the rates adopted in D00-06-080 were based on Roseville?s cost and are TELRIC based and do not include Roseville?s retail, embedded or historical cost.

Description: On August 2, 2000, Dhruv Khanna, General Counsel to Covad Communications Company (Covad), met with Cmmr. Wood in San Francisco. Also present were: Jonathan Lakritz, advisor to Cmmr. Wood; and Sarah Bradley and Laura Izon, counsels to Covad. Khanna described how competition in the provisioning of DSL has brought high-speed Internet access to consumers, not just businesses. Izon raised the issue of pricing for smaller ILECs such as Roseville Telecommunications Company (Roseville) and the difficulties faced by competitors trying to enter those markets. Izon said that if Covad cannot enter a market profitably, it is unlikely that any other digital competitive local exchange carriers ("DLEC") would be able to do so. Bradley noted that this was a national problem and emphasized the precedential impact of the Commission's decisions in this area. Bradley also stated that Covad earlier had collocated its equipment in Roseville's offices on the assumption that pricing would be cost-based. Bradley explained that Rosevi

Description: On August 1, 2000, Dhruv Khanna, General Counsel to Covad Communications Company (Covad), met with Cmmr. Bilas in San Francisco. Also present were: Lester Wong, advisor to Cmmr. Bilas; and Sarah Bradley and Laura Izon, counsels to Covad. Khanna described the dramatic increase in the company's revenues. Bradley noted that Covad earlier had collocated its equipment in Roseville Telephone Company's (Roseville) offices on the assumption that pricing would be cost-based. Bradley explained that Roseville's current loop prices do not allow to operate in competition with Roseville's retail DSL offering and that Covad must now remove its equipment. Izon raised the issue of pricing for smaller independent local exchange carriers (ILECs) and the difficulties faced by competitors. Izon stated that if Covad cannot enter a market profitably, it is unlikely that any other digital competitive local exchange carriers would be able to. Bradley emphasized the precedential impact of decisions in this area. Bradley raised the is

Description: On July 27, 2000, Charles Haas, Vice President of Operations, Western Region, of Covad Communications Company (Covad), met with Cmmr. Neeper in San Francisco. Also present were: Fassil Fenikile, advisor to Cmmr. Neeper; Sarah Bradley, Counsel, and Laura Izon, Counsel, of Covad.Haas stated that Covad was already collocated in Roseville Telecommunications Company's (Roseville) offices, but that service had not yet been turned up. Haas stated that Roseville's loop prices are prohibitively high and do not allow Covad to operate profitably in competition with Roseville's retail DSL offering. Izon noted that the price differential between Roseville and Pacific Bell's loop costs created a digital divide between residents of Roseville and those of the rest of California. Bradley and Haas noted that Covad is often the first entrant in a market, breaking ground for other competitors by arbitrating or litigating where others may not. Bradley and Haas pointed out that if Covad cannot enter the Roseville market, it is un
