This extension of the charter will enable the EAAC to complete the important work it began in early 2011 pursuant to the CVAA. The EAAC was chartered on January 14, 2011 to determine the most effective and efficient technologies and methods by which to enable equal access to emergency services by individuals with disabilities as part of our nation’s migration to Next Generation 911 (NG9– 1–1), and to make recommendations to the Commission on how to achieve those effective and efficient technologies and methods. In spring 2011, the EAAC conducted a nationwide survey of individuals with disabilities and released a report on that survey on July 21, 2011. Following release of the survey report, the EAAC developed recommendations, which it submitted to the Commission on December 7, 2011, as required by the CVAA. However, the EAAC clarified that the December 2011 recommendations did not constitute the full report and requested additional editorial privileges and the right to submit a full report that will contain the technical and policy background for these recommendations at a later date. The EAAC subsequently formed subcommittees to further explain in detail its initial recommendations related to interoperability testing, language assistance, gaps in existing public safety standards, timelines for deployment and pre-NG 911 mobile text-to-911 solutions. The EAAC Charter provides that the EAAC shall terminate two years from the date of the Charter, thus expiring on January 14, 2013.

the survey report, the EAAC developed recommendations, which it 
submitted to the Commission on December 7, 2011, as required by the 
CVAA. However, the EAAC clarified that the December 2011 
recommendations did not constitute the full report and requested
