[EAS] Alerting in General

[Dave Kline]

Maybe they can get Walgreens on board as a corporate sponsor?

Are all the duck farts giving you a headache?
Are you the state SECC chair?
Are you a radio engineer suffering from pain in the neck?
Walgreen's is having a two for one sale on pain relief products.
Just use promo code:   E A S.

>Back in December 2016, the FCC was to have adopted new EAS rules in a Report & Order, but that item was abruptly dropped from the December meeting agenda, and has never reappeared.  In the NPRM preceding that scuttled Order, the FCC asked for input on what should be added to the rules regarding SECCs.  The FCC also proposed that State EAS Plans should describe alerting via not only EAS, but WEA, social media, highway signs, and one-to-many/many-to-one capabilities (one alert is issued and then many citizens reply to it).

>So whenever it is that the FCC releases its next new EAS rules, likely the SECC and WEA issues you have all been discussing today will be addressed.  As has been said, let's hope its not a "be careful what you wish for" outcome.
