Abstract
The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) is correcting the effective date of a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of January 17, 2014 (79 FR 3123). The document announced the effective date of rules requiring 911 communications providers to take reasonable measures to provide reliable service, as evidenced by an annual certification of conformance with specified best practices or reasonable alternative measures to mitigate the risk of failure. The document also announced the effective date of amendments to the Commission's existing rules requiring certain communications providers to notify public safety answering points (PSAPs) of disruptions in service.
