FCC 02-120, released April 29, 2002, imposes requirements on 
wireless and wireline carriers and equipment manufacturers aimed at 
responding to the problem of the inability of emergency workers and the 
public to contact for further critical information a 911 caller may be 
using a non-initialized wireless telephone or a "911-only" 
phone, which do not have dial-able numbers. To advise the public and 
emergency workers of this limitation and to thus advise them using such 
phones in emergency situations to provide as much critical information, 
particularly regarding location, the Commission adopted labeling, 
software modification, and public education requirements.

Federal Communications Commission.
