Website Inventory, Priorities & Schedules
The Federal Communications Commission developed this inventory of website content as required by Section 207(f)(2) of the E-Government Act of 2002. In preparing the inventory, we identified our audience and the type of information they want through a review of citizen emails; website statistics; search requests; requests received under our Information Quality Guidelines process; feedback from news media inquiries; Quarterly Inquiries and Complaints Reports processed by the Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau; Freedom of Information Act requests; and reports and recommendations from a variety of technological, consumer, disability and industry related federal advisory committees.
In addition to the information requests listed above, we identified information that, as a regulatory agency we are required by law or official directive to make available, plus other information whose dissemination is crucial to ensure public safety, national security or the implementation of our mission-critical operations. In developing the inventory we also assumed that if any of our information was of interest to the general public, and there were no national security, law enforcement, legal or privacy issues that prohibit its publication (see FOIA exemptions), then that information should be posted and listed on the inventory.
Web Publication Schedules
|
All of the content listed below is already available on our public website. Revisions to this existing information are scheduled and implemented as soon as new information becomes available – there are currently no specific schedules outstanding. If new categories of information that are important to the public become available at the FCC, we are committed to putting them on our website, and we will post (on this page) a publication schedule and target date for that information. If you have suggestions for additional information that we should provide on our website, please let us know.
Web Publication Priorities
|
When new or additional content becomes available, we will publish it on the website in the order of the following publication priorities recommended in the implementation guidance associated with Section 207(f):
Priority 1: required by law, regulation, Presidential directive, or other official directive or to ensure national security
Priority 2: mission-critical and essential for program operations, but not required by law, regulation, or Presidential directive (that is, information or services that are directly tied to an agency's mission and/or strategic plan)
Priority 3: frequently requested information or services that would improve business processes and/or customer service to the public (for example, most commonly used forms, documents, applications, transactions, etc.).
Priority 4: other information
If information fits in two or more priorities, we will assign it priority 1.
