attacks; to assist the Commission in ensuring rapid restoration of 
communications capabilities after disruption by a terrorist threat or 
attack; and to assist the Commission in ensuring that public safety, 
public health, and other emergency and defense personnel have effective 
communications services available to them in the immediate aftermath of 
any terrorist attack within the United States. To fulfill this mission, 
the FCC's Homeland Security Policy Council must be able to contact key 
communications providers to determine the extent of a communications
