649.6 Emergency calls.
(a) A provider of intrastate operator assisted communications services will be authorized by the commission to receive direct routing to it of calls initiated by dialing solely “0,” upon its demonstration that it:
(1) can process all emergency calls with a high degree of reliability;
(2) can ensure that at the start of each call it will receive a signal enabling it to pinpoint the specific location of the calling telephone;
(3) has internal procedures to police, monitor, and routinely test its ability to continuously process emergency calls with a high degree of reliability; and
(4) can and will maintain the ability to reliably and promptly connect any “0” call which it cannot satisfactorily complete to the LEC operator in the area serving the calling location, in a manner such that the caller does not sense or believe that the call has been abandoned by the operator.
(b) Such authorization shall take the form of an amendment to the operator services provider's Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity.
(c) Upon a finding by the commission that the provider is not in compliance with the requirements set forth in subdivision (a) of this section, such authorization shall be revoked and the provider shall notify the owners of all telephones it serves of the revocation.
