47 CFR Part 4 of FCC rules will require outage reporting requirements to include all communications providers (cable, satellite, and wireless providers). An initial and final report is required to be filed for each outage. The reports will enable the Commission to monitor developments affecting homeland security, public health or safety, and the economic well being of the Nation in view of the increasing importance of non-wireline communications in the Nation's communications networks and critical infrastructure. The Commission is now revising this IC to include Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) providers which are new respondents subject to the requirements of this information collection under Part 4 of the Commission's rules. See Report and Order, FCC 12-22.
