Where technically feasible, a DIVCA franchisee and an incumbent cable operator shall
negotiate in good faith to interconnect their networks for the purpose of providing
PEG access channel programming. Interconnection may be accomplished by direct cable,
microwave link, satellite, or other reasonable method of connection. DIVCA franchisees
and incumbent cable operators shall provide interconnection of the PEG access channels
on reasonable terms and conditions and may not withhold the interconnection. If a
DIVCA franchisee and an incumbent cable operator cannot reach a mutually acceptable
interconnection agreement, the county may require the incumbent cable operator to
allow the DIVCA franchisee to interconnect its network with the incumbent's network
at a technically feasible point on the holder's network as identified by the holder.
If no technically feasible point for interconnection is available, the DIVCA franchisee
shall make an interconnection available to the channel originator and shall provide
the facilities necessary for the interconnection. The cost of any interconnection
shall be borne by the DIVCA franchisee requesting the interconnection unless otherwise
agreed to by the parties.
