They've had DECADES to negotiate a defined time but have never done it. Why? Because it typically involves a long call system. They apparently prefer everyone on short call with no defined call out time.
I guess the question to ask is; is "reasonably available by ground transportation" going to be interpreted as long call or short call per 117?
