Customer will be responsible for any third party charges incurred by Verizon in order to implement any requested Access speed changes or any termination.  The applicable NRC and MRC associated with the new Access circuit speed will be effective from the day the changed Access bandwidth is available to Customer.

 

5.1.12              Access Moves.  Customer-requested moves of Access to a new location will be quoted on an individual case basis and, as with speed changes, may require the termination of Customer’s existing Access circuit and installation of a new one.  For Customer-requested moves of Access to a new location, Customer will pay early termination charges as applicable and any third party charges incurred by Verizon in order to implement the move.  The newly-contracted Access will include the applicable NRC and MRC associated with the new Access circuit.

 

5.1.13              NS&D Features.  Customer must order and pay for the two access circuits from Verizon to configure Layer 2 Aggregation Geographic Diversity and Carrier Diversity, plus an additional charge for the Diversity Feature itself, as applicable.  With Preferred Carrier Designation Diversity, Customer must order and pay for the access circuit, plus an additional charge for the Diversity Feature itself, as applicable.

 

5.2            Non-Optimized Service.  Customer will pay MRCs and NRCs for non-Optimized Access Service as specified in the Agreement. The online pricing for Access provided by a U.S. entity is at

https://www.verizon.com/service_guide/reg/cp_access_network_services_local_access.htm. 

 

5.2.1    Commitment Period.  Customer will pay the applicable circuit MRC for any Network Services Local Access Service circuit of DS3 or larger or for any Ethernet Access for a minimum of 12 months, which Customer will pay even if the circuit is cancelled sooner (unless cancelled by Customer for Cause, as defined in Customer’s Agreement). 

 

5.2.2    Special Construction.  If, after an order is placed, Verizon finds that third-party special construction services are needed to build, configure or install any additional facilities and/or equipment necessary for Verizon to provide Access service, Verizon will notify the Customer of any such special construction charges.
