technical, scientific advisory bodies 

established on an ‘‘as needed’’ basis to 

provide independent scientific peer 

review and advise NTP on agents of 

public health concern, new/revised 

toxicological test methods, or other 

issues. These panels help ensure 

transparent, unbiased, and scientifically 

rigorous input to the program for its use 

in making credible decisions about 

human hazard, setting research and 

testing priorities, and providing 

information to regulatory agencies about

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2006, 

Congress passed Public Law 109–295, 

which included SEC. 671. EMERGENCY 

COMMUNICATIONS also known as the 

‘‘21st Century Emergency 

Communications Act of 2006’’. The 

legislation established the Department 

of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of 

Emergency Communications, which was 

re-designated in 2018 as the Emergency 

Communications Division (ECD) within 

the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure 

Security Agency (CISA), to lead the 

development and implementation of a 

comprehensive approach to advancing 

national interoperable communications 

capabilities. 

The following responsibilities were 

established: 

6 U.S.C. 571(c) requires the DHS 

Secretary through the ECD Assistant 

Director to: 

(4) Conduct extensive, nationwide 

outreach to support and promote the 

ability of emergency response providers 

and relevant government officials to 

continue to communicate in the event of 

natural disasters, acts of terrorism, and 

other man-made disasters; 

(13) develop and update periodically, 

as appropriate, a National Emergency 

Communications Plan under section 572 

of this title; 

(14) perform such other duties of the 

Department necessary to support and 

promote the ability of emergency 

response providers and relevant 

government officials to continue to 

communicate in the event of natural 

disasters, acts of terrorism, and other 

man-made disasters; and 

(15) perform other duties of the 

Department necessary to achieve the 

goal of and maintain and enhance 

interoperable emergency 

communications capabilities. 

6 U.S.C. 572(a) requires the Secretary 

in cooperation with State, local, and 

tribal governments, Federal departments 

and agencies, emergency response 

providers, and the private sector, 

develop not later than 180 days after the 

completion of the baseline assessment 

under section 573 of this title, and 

periodically update, a National 

Emergency Communications Plan. 

Lastly, 6 U.S.C. 573 requires the DHS 

Secretary to conduct an assessment of 

Federal, State, local, and tribal 

governments that defines the range of 

capabilities needed by emergency 

response providers and relevant 

government officials, assesses the 

current available capabilities to meet 

such communications needs; identify 

the gaps between such current 

capabilities and defined requirements; 

at least every five years. 

These authorities in addition to DHS 

responsibilities through Executive Order 

13618 in the area of national security/ 

emergency providers’ communications 

require a continuous examination of 

nationwide emergency communications 

capabilities. 

The frequency and complexity of 

emergencies are on the rise during a 

time when technology is advancing at a 

faster pace than any other time in 

history. In order to perform these 

statutory regulations, it is important to 

understand the continuously changing 

requirements of emergency response 

providers and government officials at all 

levels of government, evolving risks, 

and the public safety community’s 

ability to integrate new technologies 

while also preparing for emergent 

technologies. As a result, CISA is 

seeking a PRA Generic Clearance to 

allow for flexibility in implementing
