On behalf of the hard-working people of America’s 9-1-1 emergency call centers, NENA applauds the FCC’s approval of this NPRM, which would lead to clearer NG911 service requirements for all telecom service providers. We have long advocated for a fair and workable regulatory framework that would require all entities involved in a 9-1-1 call to provide end-to-end NG9-1-1 capabilities by a date certain. This rulemaking ultimately will accelerate the provision of faster, more accurate emergency response services and help eliminate the costly maintenance of legacy 9-1-1 systems. We look forward to working with the Commission and all parties in developing such a framework under the proposed rulemaking.
