FCC to investigate Frontier over northern Arizona 911, phone and internet service outages
The Federal Communications Commission will investigate phone and internet service outages linked to Frontier Communications equipment thatand online commerce for almost two days in June.
The FCC is taking action in response to a June 13 letter from Congressman Tom O'Halleran requesting the investigation. In a response letter to O'Halleran's office Monday, FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said that after reviewing his letter and other reports about this outage she has directed the commission's Enforcement Bureau to investigate.
"911 is vital to every community — and these kinds of outages can have outsized consequences during the public health crisis caused by COVID-19," Rosenworcel wrote. "I am committed to a full and thorough investigation to learn all of the facts surrounding this outage as well as efforts to resolve it.
“I’m pleased to the see the FCC will open an investigation into this outage that left hardworking rural Arizonans in Apache and Navajo counties without the ability to call 911, their loved ones, even their neighbors,” O’Halleran said in a statement. “I am committed to holding those responsible accountable and working with local, state, and federal officials to prevent future outages and ensure families in rural areas are not overlooked.
