FCC Sends Alert System Modernization NPRM to OMB

Yesterday the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had received from the FCC a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on “Modernization of the Nation's Alerting Systems”. This rulemaking was not included in the Fall 2024 Unified Agenda.

I can find nothing on the FCC website related to this rulemaking, nor can I find any recent Executive Orders that might relate. There is a recent Congressional Research Service (CRS) report on the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, but it focuses on potential actions by Congress.

Current FCC regulations concerning the emergency alerting system are found in 47 CFR Part 10 and Part 11.
