(2) Reports listing assets falling with-in the categories identified in para-graphs (c)(1)(ii) through (iv) of this sec-tion must include a description of facts supporting the basis of the LECs or CMRS providers claim of preclusion from compliance.

21、within 12 months from the effective date of this rule, file with the Commission a certified emergency backup power compliance plan. That plan must cer-tify that and describe how the LEC or CMRS provider will provide emergency backup power to 100 percent of the area covered by any non-compliant asset

For purposes of the plan, a pro-vider may rely on on-site and/or port-able backup power sources or other sources, as appropriate, sufficient for service coverage as follows: a minimum of 24 hours of service for assets inside central offices and eight hou

The emer-gency backup power compliance plans submitted are subject to Commission review. (5) Reports submitted pursuant to this paragraph must be supported by an affidavit or declaration un
