Description

This briefing reports to Congress on (1) actions taken by the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of Emergency Communications (OEC) to establish the Emergency Communications Preparedness Center (ECPC) and (2) challenges OEC and ECPC officials reported that could affect interagency coordination through ECPC. ECPC is composed of 5 statutorily-mandated members — DHS, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and the Departments of Commerce, Defense (DOD), and Justice (DOJ) — and 7 additional departments and agencies which were invited to participate as members. The 12 members play key roles in emergency communications efforts. In accordance with the ECPC Charter, OEC administers ECPC on behalf of the Secretary of Homeland Security.
