(a) This Part shall apply to telephone corporations that provide local exchange service.
(b) As indicated by their wording, a number of the regulations in this Part prescribe the normal procedures and practices to be directed in good faith by the service provider.

They do not establish a level of performance to be achieved during periods of emergency, catastrophe, natural disaster, severe storm or other events affecting large numbers of consumers nor shall they apply to extraordinary or abnormal conditions of operation, such as those resulting from work stoppage, civil unrest, major transportation disruptions or other events beyond a service provider's control.
