The FCC has regulatory authority over many complex communications issues. To obtain expert advice on some of these issues, the FCC often calls upon advisory committees, comprised of members from public safety, industry, private consulting and citizens groups.
The mission of the Network Reliability and Interoperability Council (NRIC) was to partner with the FCC, the communications industry and public safety to facilitate enhancement of emergency communications networks, homeland security, and best practices across the burgeoning telecommunications industry.
The mission of the Media Security and Reliability Council (MSRC) was to study, develop and report on communications and coordination designed to assure the optimal reliability, robustness and security of the broadcast and multichannel video programming distribution industries in emergency situations.
