Intent, Purpose and Distribution of this Plan

This Plan is the FCC-Mandated document outlining the organization and implementation of the East Central Michigan Emergency Alert System (EAS). It is the guideline for broadcasters and cable TV operators of the East Central Michigan Region to determine their mandated and optional monitoring assignments, codes to be used, schedule of Required Monthly tests and any other elements of the Emergency Alert System which are unique to this region. This plan is an adjunct to the FCC EAS Rules, and is not meant to be a summary, in whole or in part, of those rules. Consult FCC Rules part 11 for general rules regarding the Emergency Alert System.

The East Central Michigan EAS Committee (ECMEC) shall post on this web site the most current version of this plan(although not necessarily ECMEC/FCC approved). Additional local area information, such as RMT schedules, will be also available on this site.
