They can't even cover trips in open time on time with regular reserve availability because they let them sit. They may have a "good plan" but they fail regularly on execution.
If it reports between 10 and 18 hours after that 30 hour rest ends and they assign it 12 hours before the rest ends, they don’t have to call you, and you must ascertain anything on your schedule in that 10-18 window. If it is outside of 18 hours, then yes they have to call you with a live person at least 18 hours prior to report and when you are in a contactable status.
