Mystic Alerts Act requires satellite alert transmission election by mobile service providers.
The Mystic Alerts Act mandates that providers of commercial mobile services who choose to transmit emergency alerts must also decide whether to transmit these alerts via satellite. These providers must file their election with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC, in consultation with the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency, must establish standards and procedures for satellite alert transmission within a year of the Act's enactment.
