     § 2913.  Minimum service requirement.
        (a)  General rule.--All public and semipublic coin telephone
     stations maintained by a public utility or provided, maintained
     or sold in this Commonwealth by any other person, partnership,
     association or corporation shall, except in extraordinary
     circumstances, provide two-way service. The commission shall
     permit public coin telephones to be converted so that they are
     technically capable of placing, but not receiving, calls only
     when such conversion is necessary to protect the public safety,
     health and welfare and would be in the best interests of the
     public.
        (b)  Public coin telephone service by nonpublic utilities.--
     No public utility shall provide telephone service to any person,
     partnership, association or corporation for the purpose of
     providing public and semipublic coin service unless the coin
     telephone complies with subsection (a).
        (c)  Definition.--As used in this section the term "two-way
     service" means the technical capability to place and receive
     local and intrastate telephone calls, the conspicuous display of
     a telephone number at which the public coin telephone can be
     reached and the ability to recognize when a call is incoming.
