Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Application to Transfer of Control of Domestic Authorizations Held by Embarq Corporation to CenturyTel, Inc. Under Section 214 of the Communications Act, WC Docket No. 08-238 Dear Ms. Dortch: In response to the Wireline Competition Bureau’s request, the attached exhibits list the providers that Embarq and CenturyTel have identified through several databases in the markets where they operate in adjacent exchanges. Because each company uses different sources to identify providers, we have separated the lists into two exhibits, one for Embarq and one for CenturyTel. Embarq’s provider list is compiled from five sources: (1) the MediaPrints database; (2) Ported Line Reports dating back to August 2006; (3) UNE LOOP & UNEP Reports; (4) internal wholesale reseller accounts; and (5) cell tower sites. CenturyTel’s provider list is compiled from four sources: (1) wholesale billing accounts; (2) internal marketing data; (3) Port Away reports dating back to December 2006; and (4) data from USAC. In addition, we have attached an exhibit containing maps of all adjacent exchanges. For your convenience, the two competitor list exhibits reference the map number where each adjacent exchange is located. Please let us know if you have any questions. Sincerely, Mark D.

For the first time, and while not required by statute, a section on the Water/Wastewater industry is included in this Report in response to concerns raised during the most recent session of the legislature. While each industry has unique issues, several issues discussed in this Report cut across multiple industries. This Executive Summary contains a brief overview of these cross-industry and industry-specific issues which are more fully addressed in the body of the Report. For your convenience there is a list of acronyms and a glossary in the back of the Report. CROSS-INDUSTRY ISSUES Aging infrastructure is a concern for many Indiana utilities. The Electric, Gas, and Water/Wastewater sections of this Report specifically discuss aging infrastructure and the potential problems and costs associated with repairing or replacing old facilities. Coupled with aging facilities is increasing consumer demand for electric, gas, telecommunications, and water services. Increased consumer demand can accelerate the deterioration of equipment and limit periods in which facilities can be conveniently removed from service for maintenance or replacement.

The failure strength or envelope of carbon nanotube systems under this type of loading is significantly different from what occurs under uniaxial tensile loading and, importantly, is different from the predictions of failure criteria for macroscopic objects. The failure criteria developed here can be used to design carbon nanotube-based devices and materials, such as nanoelectromechanical systems and nanocomposites, which undergo biaxial tensile–torsional loading. (Some figures in this article are in colour only in the electronic version) 1. Introduction biaxial tensile and torsional loading, especially concerning the details of failure responses or failure criteria. The unique electrical and mechanical properties of carbon When stress is applied to a part in a uniaxial manner, nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted considerable interest and stress and strength can be compared directly to estimate sparked discussion of their potential use in applications such whether or not the part will fail.
