 (a) that originated from customer equipment connected to the carrier's controlled network or controlled facility at the time the emergency call was made;
 (b) that has been transferred to the emergency service organisation; and

  the carrier must give the emergency service organisation the most precise location information available about the location of the customer equipment from which the emergency call originated, as soon as practicable after the request is received.
