    On August 7, 2008, the FCC released a Third Report and Order in PS 
Docket No. 07-287, FCC 08-184 (CMAS Third R&O), the CMAS Third R&O 
implements provisions of the Warning, Alert and Response Network 
(``WARN'') Act, including inter alia, a requirement that within 30 days 
of release of the CMAS Third R&O, each Commercial Mobile Service (CMS) 
provider must file an election with the Commission indicating whether 
or not it intends to transmit emergency alerts as part of the 
Commercial Mobile Alert System (CMAS). The CMAS Third R&O noted that 
this filing requirement was subject to OMB review and approval. The 
Commission received ``pre-approval'' from the OMB on February 4, 2008. 
The Commission began accepting CMAS election filings on or before 
September 8, 2008.
    All CMS providers are required to submit a CMAS election, including 
those that were not licensed at the time of the initial filing deadline 
with the FCC. In addition, any CMS provider choosing to withdraw its 
election must notify the Commission at least sixty (60) days prior to 
the withdrawal of its election. The information collected will be the 
CMS provider's contact information and its election, i.e., a ``yes'' or 
``no'', on whether it intends to provide commercial mobile service 
alerts.

[[Page 14000]]

    The Commission will use the information collected to meet its 
statutory requirement under the WARN Act to accept licensees' election 
filings and to establish an effective CMAS that will provide the public 
with effective mobile alerts in a manner that imposes minimal 
regulatory burdens on affected entities.
