7.1.2 If BellSouth does not have space immediately available at a Remote Site Location,<br />

BellSouth may elect, but not be limited, to make additional space available by<br />

rearranging BellSouth facilities or constructing additional capacity. In such cases,<br />

the above intervals shall not apply and BellSouth will provision the Remote<br />

Collocation Space in a nondiscriminatory manner and at parity with BellSouth and<br />

will provide OTI with the estimated completion date in its Application Response.<br />

7.2 Joint Planning. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, a joint planning meeting<br />

or other method of joint planning between BellSouth and OTI will commence<br />

within a maximum of twenty (20) days from BellSouth's receipt of a BFFO. At<br />

such meeting, the Parties will agree to the preliminary design of the Remote<br />

Collocation Space and the equipment configuration requirements, as reflected in<br />

the Application and affirmed in the BFFO.<br />

7.3 Permits. Each Party, its agent(s) or BellSouth Certified Supplier(s) will diligently<br />

pursue filing for the permits required for the scope of work to be performed by<br />

that Party, its agent(s) or BellSouth Certified Supplier(s) within ten (10) days of<br />

the completion of finalized construction designs and specifications.<br />

7.4 Use of BellSouth Certified Supplier. OTI shall select a supplier, which has been<br />

approved as a BellSouth Certified Supplier to perform all construction, engineering<br />

(as specified in TR 73503), installation, and removal work. OTI, if a BellSouth<br />

Certified Supplier, or OTI’s BellSouth Certified Supplier must follow and comply<br />

with all of BellSouth’s specifications and the following BellSouth Technical<br />

Requirements: TR 73503, TR 73519, TR 73572, and TR 73564. Unless the<br />

BellSouth Certified Supplier has met the requirements for all of the required work<br />

activities, OTI must use a different BellSouth Certified Supplier for the work<br />

activities associated with transmission equipment, switching equipment and power<br />

equipment. BellSouth shall provide OTI with a list of BellSouth Certified<br />

Suppliers, upon request. OTI, if a BellSouth Certified Supplier, or OTI’s<br />

BellSouth Certified Supplier(s) shall be responsible for installing OTI's equipment<br />

and associated components, extending power cabling to the BellSouth power<br />

distribution frame, performing operational tests after installation is complete, and<br />

notifying BellSouth's equipment engineers and OTI upon successful completion of<br />

the installation and any associated work. When a BellSouth Certified Supplier is<br />

used by OTI, the BellSouth Certified Supplier shall bill OTI directly for all work<br />

performed for OTI pursuant to this Attachment. BellSouth shall have no liability<br />

for, nor responsibility to pay, such charges imposed by OTI’s BellSouth Certified<br />

Supplier. BellSouth shall make available its supplier certification program to OTI<br />

or any supplier proposed by OTI and will not unreasonably withhold certification.<br />

All work performed by or for OTI shall conform to generally accepted industry<br />

standards.<br />

7.5 Alarms and Monitoring. BellSouth may place alarms in the Remote Site Location<br />

for the protection of BellSouth equipment and facilities. OTI shall be responsible<br />
