For the reasons set forth below, we dismiss their reconsideration requests. Background. EPIRBs are used to send distress signals that alert search and rescue responders. On January 20, 2001, ACR filed a request for waiver of Section 80.1061 of the Commission's Rules to permit type certification of a personal EPIRB meant to be carried on one's person, rather than stowed on board a ship. Additionally, on August 23, 2002, McMurdo filed a similar request for waiver of Section 80.1061 of the Commission's Rules.

  • sufficient, and to suggest additional conditions. Discussion. We agree with the commenters that INMARSAT-E EPIRBs represent an important tool for improving maritime safety and have gained international acceptance, and that we should authorize their use. We conclude that we should model the equipment certification process for INMARSAT-E EPIRBs on the process for 406-406.1 MHz EPIRBs, as set forth in section 80.1061 of the Commission's rules. That process has worked well, and there is no reason it should not be adaptable to INMARSAT-E EPIRBs. Accordingly, as a starting point, we will incorporate by reference IEC 61097-5, and require that all INMARSAT-E EPIRBs meet the requirements of that standard. We will also mandate, as we do with respect to 406-406.1 MHz EPIRBs pursuant

In addition, we discern no reason to continue to maintain three separate rules governing the format of distress communications, and so we consolidate Sections 80.314, 80.315, and 80.316 into Section 80.314, in the interest of streamlining and clarifying our requirements. Emergency Position Indicating Radiobeacons (EPIRBs) The Commission amended Section 80.1061 of its Rules, governing 406.0-406.1 MHz EPIRBs, in the Report and Order. Among other things, the Commission revised the rule to include the current version - version 2.1 - of the RTCM standard for 406.0-406.1 MHz EPIRBs.

  • by emitting a radio signal marking the ship's location for rescue responders. Boaters must exercise extreme care to prevent inadvertent activation in non-emergency situations. * Registration of EPIRBs Required - Current 406 MHz EPIRBs have a unique identifier that must be registered with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) whenever installed or replaced on a vessel, pursuant to section 80.1061(f) of the FCC's Rules. (You may now register online.) Registration will help rescue forces find you faster in the event of an emergency. Older EPIRBs operating only on 121.5 MHz/243 MHz should be replaced as they are no longer detected by satellites, and their use is now prohibited under the FCC's Rules.
