System for Making Reliability Certification Filings at FCC Open for Tests

An FCC online system for filing 911 reliability certifications is open for testing, the Public Safety Bureau said Tuesday. The FCC required annual reliability filings due at the agency Oct. 15 in a December 2013 order. "The Bureau invites Covered 911 Service Providers to log in, test the system, practice submitting certification information, and provide feedback within 30 days,” said a notice from the bureau. “Information submitted during the testing period will not count toward Initial Reliability Certifications or bind certifying entities to particular responses and will be deleted when the actual production system opens for submissions.”
