make that service available in an exchange served by the
telecommunications utility within a reasonable time after receipt
of a bona fide request for the service in that exchange.
(b) A telecommunications utility may not be required to
extend a service to an area if:
(1) the local exchange company is unable to provide
the required access or other service; or

of the public interest to be served, impose unreasonable costs on or
require unreasonable investments by the telecommunications
utility.

utility or a local exchange company information necessary to
enforce this section.
