The FCC’s Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau announced today that it is updating its Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) Text-to-911 Readiness and Certification Registry to list PSAPs that are ready to receive text-to-911 messages. Wireless carriers and interconnected over-the-top texting providers have six months from a PSAP request to deploy text-to-911 services.
