## Abstract

The Federal Communications Commission has adopted a Memorandum Opinion and Order in the wireless Enhanced 911 (E911) rulemaking proceeding, reaffirming its commitment to the rapid implementation of technologies needed to bring emergency help to wireless callers throughout the United States. The action is taken to resolve petitions for reconsideration of the rules adopted in the First Report and Order concerning the availability of basic 911 services and the implementation of E911 for wireless telecommunications services. The primary goal of this proceeding is to ensure that reliable, effective 911 and E911 service is available to wireless users as soon as technologically possible. The limited revisions to the Commission's rules adopted in this decision are intended to remedy technical problems raised in the record. This Memorandum Opinion and Order contains proposed information collections subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). It has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review under the PRA. OMB, the general public, and other Federal agencies are invited to comment on the proposed information collections contained in this proceeding.
