| 2013-08525 | Improving 9-1-1 Reliability; Reliability and Continuity of Communications Networks, Including Broadband Technologies | Proposed Rule | The Federal Communications Commission proposes a range of approaches to ensure that providers of 9-1-1 communications services implement best practices and other sound engineering principles to improve the reliability and resiliency of the Nation's 9-1-1 networks. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking also proposes amendments to the Commission's current rules to clarify and add specificity to service providers' obligations to notify 9-1-1 call centers of communications outages. This action follows an inquiry by the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau into widespread 9-1-1 service outages during the "derecho" windstorm that affected large portions of the United States in June 2012, revealing significant vulnerabilities in current 9-1-1 network configuration and service provider maintenance practices. The Commission requests comment on these proposals to improve the reliability and resiliency of 9-1-1 networks and ensure that 9-1-1 call centers receive timely and actionable notification of service outages. | 2013-04-12 | 2013 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2013/04/12/2013-08525/improving-9-1-1-reliability-reliability-and-continuity-of-communications-networks-including | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-04-12/pdf/2013-08525.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | The Federal Communications Commission proposes a range of approaches to ensure that providers of 9-1-1 communications services implement best practices and other sound engineering principles to improve the reliability and resiliency of the Nation's... |
