Nationwide EAS Test: Report Deadline Clarified
A couple of days ago we reported on the Commission’s announced plans to conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System. Those plans include a required report that all participants will have to file once the test has been conducted – but (as we also reported) the Commission’s order were, um, a bit unclear when it came to when the report might be due. (“Unclear” in the sense that at some points the order said the report was due within 30 days of the test, while at other points the due date was said to be within 45 days of the test.) Just as we predicted, the Commission has now issued an Erratum clearing up that particular question. Answer: 45 days after the test.
