Disruptions to Communications;
Improving 911 Reliability
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Final rule; announcement of
compliance date.
AGENCY:
In this document, the
Commission announces that the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) has
approved information collections for the
requirement that covered 911 service
providers notify the Commission no
later 60 days after they completely cease
operations. This information collection
requirement was adopted in the 2022
Second Report and Order, to assist the
Commission in conserving resources, in
that the Commission will not need to
expend time investigating why a
provider has failed to file its annual 911
reliability certification in a timely
manner, when the reason is simply
because the provider is no longer a
provider. These rule changes resulted in
modified information collection
requirements under the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) that required OMB
approval. The Commission also
announces that compliance with the
rules is now required. This document is
consistent with the 2022 Second Report
and Order, which states the Commission
will publish a document in the Federal
Register announcing a compliance date
for the rule section and revise the rule
accordingly.
DATES: Compliance date: Compliance
with 47 CFR 9.19(d)(4), published at 88
FR 9765, on February 15, 2023, is
required as of July 5, 2024.
