Reliability and Continuity of Communications Networks, Including Broadband Technologies; Effects on Broadband Communications Networks of Damage or Failure of Network Equipment or Severe Overload; Independent Panel Reviewing the Impact of Hurricane Katrina on Communications Networks

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on a broad range of issues regarding the reliability and resiliency of our Nation's communications networks. Our goal is to establish a vigorous dialog with all interested stakeholders, particularly with respect to what action, if any, should be taken by the Commission to address these matters. In addition, the Commission seeks comment on whether it should terminate the following proceedings: Effects on Broadband Communications Networks of Damage or Failure of Network Equipment or Severe Overload, and Independent Panel Reviewing the Impact of Hurricane Katrina on Communications Networks. If these two earlier proceedings were to be terminated, the record developed therein would be consolidated into this single new proceeding, which will enable the Commission to consider all relevant matters in a more comprehensive fashion.
