Consumer Advisory Committee, 45570-45571 [2011-19168]

Download as PDF 45570 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 146 / Friday, July 29, 2011 / Notices notice, giving a detailed explanation of such limitations, including distinctions between service initialized handsets and non-initialized handsets. Wireless carriers are given the flexibility to design and execute the education program which bests responds to the individual needs of the carrier’s service area. The information will assist PSAPs by identifying incoming emergency calls originating from non-initialized handsets, thereby prompting the PSAP operators to obtain all the necessary information to locate and assist the caller. This is intended to reduce the delays in response time attributed to incidents without clear location identification. Similarly, the public education requirement, along with the labeling requirement, serves to advise consumers regarding the limitations of a non-initialized handset. They also serve to advise callers using non-initialized handsets that they must be sure to provide as much specific information to the PSAP operator as soon as possible regarding the location of the emergency situation, because there is no call back capability to a non-initialized handset.
