• Suicide Lifeline Outage Reporting NPRM, other items [telecom]

    Suicide Lifeline Outage Reporting NPRM

    The FCC will consider a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking at its Open
    Meeting on January 26 that would implement reporting and notice
    requirements for service outages potentially affecting the 988 Suicide
    & Crisis Lifeline (“988 Lifeline”). The 988 Lifeline experienced a nationwide outage lasting several hours on December 1, 2022. In
    response, the Commission proposes requiring a new category of “covered
    988 service providers” to report certain outages that affect the 988
    Lifeline to the Network Outage Reporting System (“NORS”). The
    Commission also seeks input on whether to also require cable,
    satellite, wireless, wireline, and interconnected VoIP providers to
    report outages.
