Telecommunications Relay Services and Speech-to-Speech Services for Individuals With Hearing and Speech Disabilities

The Bureau extends the waivers for one year (four months in the case of speed dialing for VRS) because the record demonstrates that it is technologically infeasible for VRS and IP Relay providers to offer these services at this time.
