Yea probably that too, good catch.  So how about;

"To qualify as separate sites, locations must either be in separate 
cities and/or metropolitan areas, or if within the same city or 
metropolitan area, each location must have an independent connection to 
the Internet, each from a different provider."

Or is that to restrictive?

So that would be a /48 per city with an additional /48 per site within a 
city that has a different internet provider.

So if you have a network connecting locations in each of Denver, 
Houston, and Atlanta, 2 locations in LA with different Internet 
providers for each, 2 locations in Chicago with the same Internet 
provider, and 3 sites in NYC, 2 with the same Internet provider and 1 
with a different Internet provider, would count as a total of 8 - /48 
sties or a /45 assignment instead of the 10 locations with a /44 assignment.

Reasonable?
