MLT TESTING. Except in exceptional circumstances, as stated below, when a SPRINT customer on a resold line reports a service problem to SPRINT, SPRINT shall perform Mechanized Loop Testing (MLT) on that line prior to reporting the service problem to VERIZON. The parties will work cooperatively to develop a list of exceptional circumstances in which SPRINT need not perform an MLT test, which shall include, but not be limited to circumstances in which the service problem is due to a visually or otherwise readily identifiable service problem (e.g., a downed drop wire) or the applicable VERIZON systems needed to perform an MLT test are not operational. In addition, VERIZON, in its discretion, may perform MLT testing to diagnose a trouble.
