  • 2021-02678 — Wireless E911 Location Accuracy Requirements
    Type:Rule
    Citation:86 FR 8714
    Reading Time:about 7 minutes

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted a final rule that dismisses two petitions for reconsideration filed by CTIA and the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International, Inc.
