- Vision [1]
- The purpose of the Council is to provide recommendations to the FCC to ensure optimal security, reliability and interoperability
of communications systems, including telecommunications, media and public safety communications. The Council’s recommendations
will address: (1) ensuring the security, sustainability and resiliency of telecommunications and media infrastructure and
public safety communications, throughout the United States; (2) ensuring the availability of communications capacity during
natural disasters, terrorist attacks or other events that result in exceptional strain on the communications infrastructure;
and (3) ensuring and facilitating the rapid restoration of communications services in the event of widespread or major disruptions.
This committee will develop best practices, recommend ways to improve the Emergency Alert System, evaluate ways to strengthen
the collaboration between communications service providers and public safety entities during emergencies, and address technical
issues affecting the resiliency, restorability and interoperability of communications networks.
