Internet Service Provider (ISP) Fees
K-20 is statewide INTRA-net K-20 Network does not directly procure INTER-net
access for customers OSPI contracts for ISP on behalf of connected K-12
sites No state subsidy for ISP No legislatively set rate structure
– Estimates provided by OSPI at beginning of year– Actual cost determined at end of year, based on actual,
total cost of service– Includes E-rate discounts
18
K-20 Co-pay Principles
Established by K-20 Network Consortium
All sites must pay the same amount per unit of transport – regardless of institution size, location, or connectivity methodology
Co-pay is amount needed from connected institutions after state subsidy and E-rate reimbursements
Must be in line with options available in competitive marketplace
Much lower than actual cost to provide service

K-20 Co-pay History
1996:– When K-20 was established, co-pay was set based on cost of a T1
in downtown Seattle ($625/quarter) 2005:
– Co-pay revised to reflect increase in Ethernet availability, cheaper rural options
– Moved to usage-based model; not capacity based– Co-pay set at $400/Mbps/quarter up to 6 Mbps; $60/Mbps/quarter
beyond 6 – Only 25 sites had usage > 6 Mbps
2012:– Co-pay revised again to address high bandwidth users– 228 sites now have usage > 6 Mbps– 59 sites now have usage > 50 Mbps
21
2012 Co-pay Review(presented to K-20 Network Consortium May 8, 2012)
Expenses have remained reasonably stable, in spite of increases in bandwidth utilization– Contributing Factors:
Removal of all ISDN video connections and many T1s Installation of lower cost Ethernet connections Transition of CTS KOCO responsibilities to UW Increases in E-rate reimbursements (60% in 2000; 71% in
2012)
Usage has increased at approximately 50% per year Transport expenses have not increased at the same rate Without changes to co-pay model, sector co-pay invoices
would increase at a greater rate than K-20 expenses Co-pay rates for high bandwidth users are increasingly
out of line with competitive marketplace

Recent History
Over the past few months, some districts have indicated that they were paying more for K-20 than they could to other vendors
Some of these claims were easily addressed:– For high-bandwidth users, the new co-pay structure
addressed this– In some cases, vendors and districts were basing these
claims on outdated or inaccurate information In others, it was determined to be true K-20 and OSPI committed to districts that the co-pay
would be reassessed, and any necessary changes made
24
2013 Co-pay Review
School Districts that qualify for high e-rate discounts (80% and above) may be paying more for co-pay than they would for the post-discount portion of competitive offerings (10 – 20% of the actual cost of service)
Current approach:– K-20 receives approximately $5M in e-rate reimbursements
annually for circuits procured for K-12 and library sites– Co-pay for all sites is the same – regardless of sector or e-rate
discount qualification– State appropriation currently subsidizes higher ed sites at a
greater rate than K-12 and library sites, as E-rate provides much of the K-12 and library subsidy.
In order for co-pay to stay in line with competitive marketplace, and meet legislative intent, additional changes to co-pay must be made
