La. Admin. Code tit. 4, § IX-707 - Telecommunications Building Access Standards
A. In general, telecommunications access to
state-owned buildings shall be made through an as-needed competitive
procurement activity that includes provisions and requirements for building
access as a part of the state's needs to acquire telecommunications services.
This Section is not applicable to those telecommunications service providers
that have existing access facilities in state-owned buildings. In special cases
where a telecommunications service provider is building out its network and
desires access to a new or existing state-owned building in that process, this
Section shall apply.
B. When
determined by the Office of Telecommunications Management and with the
concurrence of the agency/owner to be in the best interest of the state,
building access and space in state-owned buildings may be made available to
telecommunications service providers. It is the state's intention to provide
access to the building through a state-owned and state-provided conduit
system.
C. The Office of
Telecommunications Management shall be responsible for developing a standard
building access agreement. The Office of Telecommunications Management shall be
responsible for developing installation standards and guidelines for use by
telecommunications service providers. The Office of Telecommunications
Management shall coordinate the processing of all requests by
telecommunications service providers for building access. The
telecommunications service provider shall be responsible for initiating a
written request for building access to the Office of Telecommunications
Management that contains specific details of accommodation requirements and
types of services offered. The agency/owner shall be responsible for sending
all requests from telecommunications service providers to the Office of
Telecommunications Management. Each building access agreement shall be signed
by the agency/owner and the telecommunications service provider and approved by
the Office of Telecommunications Management.
D. The criteria for accommodation shall be
first come/first served, reasonable availability of space, a demonstrated need
for the type of service to be provided, and safety considerations.
