Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) TIP #2: 

Federal Communications Commission Proposed Rule: Parties Asked to Refresh the Record on Facilitating Multimedia Content in Wireless Emergency Alerts

May 2, 2018

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has recently reopened the record on "Facilitating Multimedia Content in Wireless Emergency Alerts", and requests your feedback concerning sending multimedia images via Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA). The FCC needs your input on the benefits of including images in alerts.

Additionally, the FCC desires to know the ease or difficulty to produce such images. The FCC also wants any new information or arguments to support the inclusion of images via WEA.

Comments are due by May 29, 2018, and may be filed in PS Docket No. 15-91 and 15-94 using the Electronic Comment Filing System (ECFS) at https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs. 

Please note, the FCC requires comments in a Word or PDF document uploaded to their filing website via the link above.
