WASHINGTON D.C. 20554 News media information 202-418-0500 Fax-On-Demand 202-418-2830; Internet: http://www.fcc.gov (or ftp.fcc.gov) TTY (202) 418-2555 Report No. TEL-01115NS Friday February 9, 2007 NON STREAMLINED INTERNATIONAL APPLICATIONS ACCEPTED FOR FILING Section 214 Applications (47 C.F.R. § 63.18); Authorize Switched Services over Private Lines (47 C.F.R. § 63.16) and Section 310(b)(4) Unless otherwise specified, the following procedures apply to the applications listed below: The applications listed below have been found, upon initial review, to be acceptable for filing. These applications are not subject to the streamlined processing procedures set forth in Section 63.12 of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.12. These applications shall not be deemed granted until the Commission affirmatively acts upon the application, either by public notice or by written order.

Unless otherwise specified, interested parties may file comments with respect to these applications within 28 days of the date of this public notice. We request that such comments refer to the application file number shown below. No application listed below shall be granted by the Commission earlier than the day after the date specified in this public notice for the filing of comments.

ITC-MOD-20061016-00567 P TELUS Corporation Modification TELUS Corporation (TELUS) requests, pursuant to section 63.13 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. § 63.13, that the Commission reclassify TELUS as a non-dominant carrier on the following three routes: (1) U.S.-Dominican Republic, (2) U.S.-Gibraltar, and (3) U.S.-Venezuela. (See ITC-214-20030718-00362, granted DA 03-2650, rel. Aug 14, 2003.) According to the filing, TELUS is classified as dominant on these routes under section 63.10 of the rules because, at the time it obtained its international section 214 authorization, TELUS was more than 25% owned by Verizon Communications, Inc. (Verizon) which was affiliated with foreign carriers that possessed market power on the foreign-end of these routes. TELUS states that, on December 14, 2004, Verizon divested itself of all ownership interests in TELUS and thus TELUS is no longer affiliated with any foreign carriers in the Dominican Republic, Gibraltar or Venezuela. TELUS submits that it therefore is entitled to a presumption of non-dominance in its provision of service on these three U.S. international routes. Interested parties may file comments on or before February 23, 2007, and reply comments on or before March 2, 2007. Page 1 of 2

See 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.2001–.2003. An updated version of Section 63.09-.25 of the rules, and other related sections, is available at http://www.fcc.gov/ib/pd/pf/telecomrules.html Page 2 of 2
