Description of the planned network change(s):
Volcano Telephone intends to retire the copper facilities at the locations listed above. Volcano Telephone has deployed or plans to deploy its fiber-to-the-premises network in these area(s) and intends to provide services over a fiber network infrastructure. Upgrading from copper to fiber facilities will provide benefit to Volcano Telephone’s customers in terms of reliability, resiliency, and available bandwidth.

To help ensure orderly transition, Volcano Telephone may require customers and interconnecting entities to migrate services off of copper facilities well before the copper retirement implementation date.
