                       TITLE 47--TELECOMMUNICATION
 
    CHAPTER II--OFFICE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY POLICY AND NATIONAL 
                            SECURITY COUNCIL
 
PART 211_EMERGENCY RESTORATION PRIORITY PROCEDURES FOR TELECOMMUNICATIONS 
SERVICES--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  211.0  Purpose.

    This part establishes policies and procedures under which government 
and private entities will be furnished restoration priorities to insure 
that leased intercity private line telecommunications services vital to 
the national interest will be maintained during the continuance of a war 
in which the United States engaged. It supersedes the Director of 
Telecommunications Management Order of January 15, 1967 (32 FR 791, 47 
CFR 201), which is hereby canceled. To assure the effective ability to 
implement its provisions, and also in order that government and industry 
resources may be used effectively under all conditions ranging from 
national emergencies to international crises, including nuclear attack, 
a single set of rules and procedures is essential, and they must be 
applied on a day-to-day basis so that the priorities they establish can 
be implemented at once when the occasion arises. As provided for in part 
18 of Executive Order 11490, as amended (3 CFR, 1966-1970 Comp., p. 
820), policies, plans, and procedures developed pursuant to the 
Executive order shall be in consonance with the plans and policies 
contained in this part.
