Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 43 / Monday, March 8, 2021 / Notices must establish the test bed described in the Fourth Report and Order, which will validate technologies intended for indoor location. The test bed is necessary for the compliance certification framework adopted in the Fourth Report and Order.
Section 9.10i3ii requires that beginning 18 months from the effective date of the rules, CMRS providers providing service in any of the six Test Cities identified by ATIS Atlanta, Denver/Front Range, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Chicago, and Manhattan Borough of New York City or portions thereof must collect and report aggregate data on the location technologies used for live 911 calls. Nationwide CMRS
providers must submit call data on a quarterly basis; non-nationwide CMRS
providers need only submit this data every six months. Non-nationwide providers that do not provide service in any of the Test Cities may satisfy this requirement by collecting and reporting data based on the largest county within the carriers footprint. This reporting requirement is necessary to validate and verify the compliance certifications made by CMRS providers.
The Commission developed a reporting template to assist CMRS
providers in collecting, formatting, and submitting aggregate live 911 call data in accordance with the requirements in the rules. The template will also assist the Commission in evaluating the progress CMRS providers have made toward meeting the 911 location accuracy benchmarks. The template is an Excel spreadsheet and will be available for downloading on the Commissions website. The Commission may also develop an online filing mechanism for these reports in the future.
Section 9.10i3iii requires CMRS
providers to retain testing and live call data gathered pursuant to this section for a period of 2 years.
Section 9.10i4i provides that no later than 18 months from the effective date of the adoption of the rule, nationwide CMRS providers shall report to the Commission their initial plans for meeting the indoor location accuracy requirements of paragraph i2 of Section 9.10. Non-nationwide CMRS
providers will have an additional 6
months to submit their implementation plan.
Section 9.10i4ii requires that no later than 18 months from the effective date, each CMRS provider shall submit to the Commission a report on its progress toward implementing improved indoor location accuracy.
Non-nationwide CMRS providers will have an additional 6 months to submit

their progress reports. All CMRS
providers shall provide an additional progress report no later than 36 months from the effective date of the adoption of this rule. The 36-month reports shall indicate what progress the provider has made consistent with its implementation plan.
Section 9.10i4iii requires that prior to activation of the NEAD but no later than 18 months from the effective date of the adoption of this rule, the nationwide CMRS providers shall file with the Commission and request approval for a security and privacy plan for the administration and operation of the NEAD.
Section 9.10i4iv requires CMRS
providers to certify that neither they nor any third party they rely on to obtain dispatchable location information will use dispatchable location information or associated data for any non-911 purpose, except with prior express consent or as otherwise required by law. In addition, the certification must state that CMRS
providers and any third party they rely on to obtain dispatchable location information will implement measures sufficient to safeguard the privacy and security of dispatchable location information. As noted above, the Commission is revising this requirement to account for the fact that the NEAD
has been discontinued.
Section 9.10i4v requires that prior to use of z-axis information to meet the Commissions location accuracy requirements, CMRS providers must certify that neither they nor any third party they rely on to obtain z-axis information will use z-axis information or associated data for any non-911
purpose, except with prior express consent or as otherwise required by law. Further, the certification must state that CMRS providers and any third party they rely on to obtain z-axis information will implement measures sufficient to safeguard the privacy and security of z-axis location information.
This requirement is necessary to ensure the privacy and security of any personally identifiable information that may be collected by the CMRS provider.
As noted above, the Commission is revising this requirement to account for the fact that the NEAD has been discontinued.
Section 9.10j requires CMRS
providers to provide standardized confidence and uncertainty C/U data for all wireless 911 calls, whether from outdoor or indoor locations, on a percall basis upon the request of a PSAP.
This requirement makes the use of C/U
data easier for PSAPs.

Section 9.10j4 also requires that upon meeting the timeframes pursuant to paragraphs i2iiC and D of this section, CMRS providers shall provide with wireless 911 calls that have dispatchable location or z-axis vertical information the C/U data required under paragraph j1 of this section. Where available to the CMRS provider, floor level information must be provided with associated C/U data in addition to z-axis location information.
Section 9.10k requires CMRS
providers to record information on all live 911 calls, including but not limited to the positioning source method used to provide a location fix associated with the call, as well as confidence and uncertainty data. This information must be made available to PSAPs upon request, as a measure to promote transparency and accountability for this set of rules.
