Commercial Mobile Service Alert Advisory Committee (CMSAAC)
CMSAAC's mission was to develop recommendations on technical standards and protocols to facilitate the ability of commercial mobile service (CMS) providers to voluntarily transmit emergency alerts to their subscribers. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established the committee pursuant to Section 603 of the Warning, Alert and Response Network Act (WARN Act), which was enacted on October 13, 2006. Under the WARN Act, the CMSAAC was required to submit its recommendations to the Commission by October 12, 2007. The CMSAAC met this deadline and has completed its work.
