This provision includes, but is not limited to, severe or unusual weather conditions, fire, flood, or other acts of God, strikes, work delays caused by failure of utility providers to service, maintain or monitor their utility poles to which grantee’s cable system is attached, as well as unavailability of materials and/or qualified labor to perform the work necessary.
