•S 238 IS

1 (1) telecommunications networks constitute an

2 essential infrastructure for the Nation’s economy

3 and security;

4 (2) in the past several years there have been a

5 significant number of severe network outages that

6 temporarily left millions of United States telephone

7 customers without telephone service;

8 (3) there has been no requirement for system9 atic study of the security of the network or its vul10 nerability to disruptions caused by technical failure,

11 accident, or other causes; and

12 (4) there is a need for the Federal Communica13 tions Commission to monitor network outages on a

14 systematic and ongoing basis; to assess the adequacy

15 of default, redundancy, and recovery mechanisms;

16 and to recommend measures to prevent future out17 ages.

18 SEC. 3. STUDY OF NETWORK SECURITY AND RELIABILITY.

19 The Federal Communications Commission shall con20 duct a comprehensive study of the security and reliability

21 of the Nation’s telecommunications network to identify the

22 sources of the network’s vulnerability to outages and to

23 determine what default, redundancy and recovery mecha24 nisms are necessary to maintain and restore service.
3

•S 238 IS

1 SEC. 4. REPORT TO CONGRESS.

6 information, regarding telephone service reliability and

7 network outages, provided by major communications com8 mon carriers and their telecommunications equipment and

12 ensure the security and reliability of the network.

14 Commencing with the 12-month period following the

15 date of the submission of the report pursuant to section

16 4, and each 12-month period thereafter, the Federal Com17 munications Commission shall report to Congress regard18 ing the security and reliability of the Nation’s tele19 communications network.

Article 4(1)(b) of Directive 2008/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2008 to approximate the laws of the Member States relating to trade marks must be interpreted as meaning that, in the case of identical or similar goods and services, there may be a likelihood of confusion on the part of the relevant public between an earlier mark consisting of a letter sequence, which is distinctive and is the dominant element in that mark of average distinctiveness, and a later mark which reproduces that letter sequence and to which is added a descriptive combination of words, the initial letters of which correspond to the letters of that sequence, with the result that that sequence is perceived by that public as the acronym of that combination of words.

# Defense Logistics Agency Distribution recognizes National Small Business Week

/ Published May 2, 2022
NEW CUMBERLAND, Pa., 
For more than 51 years, the President of the United States has issued a proclamation announcing National Small Business Week, which recognizes the critical contributions of America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners. This year, the National Small Business Week will occur May 1-7.

As a part of National Small Business Week, the U.S. Small Business Administration takes the opportunity to highlight the impact of outstanding entrepreneurs, small business owners and others from all 50 states and U.S. territories.

Carey Baker, Defense Logistics Agency Distribution’s new Office of Small Business Programs associate director, highlights two programs within the SBA, Women-Owned Small Businesses and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Businesses.

“The Small Business and Socio-economic Programs were established to meet the requirements of the Small Business Act of 1953 to maximize opportunities for small business,” Baker said. “Two programs that were created within the SBA, WOSBs and EDWOSBs, were created to provide equal access to federal contracting opportunities. As of Sept. 2015, the Small Business Administration implemented sole source authority for WOSBs and EDWOSBs.”

The WOSB and EDWOSBs are programs that authorizes contracting officers to specifically limit, or set aside, certain requirements for competition solely amongst WOSBs and EDWOSBs. The goal of the WOSB and EDWOSBs program is to make sure that 5% of federal prime subcontracting dollars go to women-owned small businesses. DLA Distribution currently has contracts with 626 WOSBs/EWOSBs, totaling over $34 million.

“It is important to ensure WOSBs/EDWOSBs have an equal opportunity to participate in Federal contracting and to help attain the federal government’s goal in awarding 5% of its prime contract dollars to WOSBs,” Baker said. “According to an SBA study, 646 National Association of Insurance Commissioners code industries are underrepresented by EDWOSB concerns. That is 759 out of 891 NAICS code industries and over 85% of the procurement NAICS codes.”
