Today, the FCC's Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau launched a
new web page: Broadband and Public Safety and Homeland Security to
better ensure that the public safety community, the general public,
government agencies and communications providers have access to the
latest news and information on the FCC's efforts to implement the
National Broadband Plan for public safety. The implementation of the
plan will include initiatives to bring interoperable communications to
America's first responders through the creation of a nationwide wireless
broadband network and new cyber security reporting and monitoring
programs; as well as Next Generation 9-1-1 services; emergency alerts
and warnings through a variety of outlets (including via television and
radio broadcasts (Emergency Alert System), wireless hand-held devices,
such as cell phones and the Internet) and much more.
The web page includes access to the latest press releases, public
notices, field hearings, and presentations. We encourage you to visit
these pages for updates and background information to assist with your
coverage of the National Broadband Plan and its impact on public safety
across America.
