OpenNet submitted its proposed modifications to its ICO Schedule 12 (Co-Location Service), proposed Schedule 12B (Co-Location Supplementary Cooling Service) and Schedule 15 (Charges) for IDA's review on 5 April 2012.
* OpenNet's charges for the proposed Co-Location Supplementary Cooing Service under its ICO are being reviewed by IDA.
IDA's Decision on OpenNet's Reconsideration Request
OpenNet requested IDA to reconsider the requirement in the direction dated 27 October 2011 for OpenNet to complete the Project Study in respect of a request for the Co-Location Supplementary Cooling Service under its ICO within ten business days of the date of the request and instead allow OpenNet to complete the Project Study within fifteen business days. In consideration of OpenNet's clarification that the Project Study, amongst other things, involve additional preliminary on-site survey(s) which may be required before the actual OpenNet site survey, IDA agreed to allow OpenNet an additional five business days to complete the Project Study.
IDA further agreed to OpenNet's request to remove the requirement in the direction dated 27 October 2011 on OpenNet to provide reciprocal rights to the Requesting Licensees to terminate the Co-Location Supplementary Cooling Service in the event where (i) the Central Office had become unfit for its purpose, or (ii) OpenNet's right to own, maintain or operate the Central Office was revoked or terminated or expired given that they apply only to the Co-Location Service and not to the Co-Location Supplementary Cooling Service and it is not necessary to also re-address these two scenarios in the Co-Location Supplementary Service, provided that the service in the proposed Schedule 12B (Co-Location Supplementary Cooling Service) would be terminated automatically in conjunction with the same in Schedule 12 (Co-Location Service) for the said two scenarios.
IDA issued the decision on the reconsideration request on 9 December 2011.
