(a) An incumbent local exchange carrier (“LEC”) must provide public notice
regarding any network change that:

provide service;
(2) Will affect the incumbent LEC's interoperability with other service
providers; or
(3) Will affect the manner in which customer premises equipment is attached
to the interstate network.

the replacement of such loops with fiber-to-the-home loops or
fiber-to-the-curb loops, as those terms are defined in Sec. 51.319(a)(3).
(b) For purposes of this section, interoperability means the ability of two
or more facilities, or networks, to be connected, to exchange information,
and to use the information that has been exchanged.
(c) Until public notice has been given in accordance with Sec. Sec. 51.325 through
51.335, an incumbent LEC may not disclose to separate affiliates, separated
affiliates, or unaffiliated entities (including actual or potential
competing service providers or competitors), information about planned
network changes that are subject to this section.
(d) For the purposes of Sec. Sec. 51.325 through 51.335, the term services means
