FCC Offers Customizable E-Mail Notification

The new news service is targeted toward consumers, while the DailyDigest remains the official record of FCC business for the day it covers.

The Federal Communications Commission has begun offering individuals interested in its regulatory actions and related developments customizable news briefs delivered directly to one's inbox. Subscribers can customize the newsletter to stay informed of information on a variety of issues as it is made available to the public. The topics include access to emergency information, broadband deployment, digital TV/HDTV, disability issues, emergency management/E9-1-1/public safety, homeland security, intergovernmental coordination, rural and tribal telecommunications issues, among others.

The new news service is targeted toward consumers, while the FCC's current newsletter, the DailyDigest, remains the official record of the FCC's business for the day that it covers. The FCC recommends government officials continue to refer to the DailyDigest to find out about FCC actions that affect their particular job or agency. The new newsletter will not necessarily contain such items of interest to government employees such as the regional public safety planning committee meetings for 700 and 800 MHz spectrum allocation recently announced in the Digest. However, the new newsletter will contain longer summaries and explanations of items it contains and government officials may want to inform their constituents of the newsletter as a way to keep up to date on important news on a variety of issues that may affect them.
