8. Service Orders - Consolidated and Midcontinent have not agreed on (a) the standards that will govern the formats for service orders; (b) the procedures governing unauthorized changes in service; and (c) the procedures governing local service freezes.

9. Coordinated Cutovers - Consolidated and Midcontinent have not agreed on the terms governing confirmation and failure to complete coordinated cutovers from one carrier to another.

10. 911 Trunks - Consolidated and Midcontinent have not agreed on the terms governing purchase of 911 trunks by Midcontinent.

11. Foreign Exchange Service - Consolidated and Midcontinent have not agreed on the requirements governing foreign exchange service.

12. Collocation - Consolidated and Midcontinent have not agreed on the safety requirements for equipment placed in collocation cages.

A hearing in this proceeding will be held beginning August 1, 2008 at 10:00 a.m. CDT, in the Commission Hearing Room, 12th Floor, State Capitol, Bismarck, North Dakota. The hearing is open to the public, but participation is limited to the parties named herein and Commission staff.
