The Emergency Alert System (EAS), is a national public warning system that requires TV and radio broadcasters, cable TV and wireless cable systems, satellite digital audio radio service providers, direct broadcast satellite service providers and wireline video service providers to offer to the President the communications capability to address the American public during a national emergency. The system also may be used by state and local authorities to deliver important emergency information such as AMBER (missing children) alerts and emergency weather information targeted to a specific area. The EAS allows authorized state authorities to promptly distribute important local emergency information. A state emergency manager can use the EAS to broadcast a warning from one or more major radio stations in a particular state. EAS equipment in other radio and television stations, as well as in cable television systems in that state, can automatically monitor and rebroadcast the warning. The State of Rhode Island EAS Plan, hereinafter referred to as the EAS Plan, is designed to guide broadcasters and all other EAS participants to determine monitoring assignments, EAS codes, guidance for message originators and any other elements of the EAS which are unique to this state. The EAS Plan was prepared by the Rhode Island Interoperable Communications Committee (ICC) in cooperation with the Rhode Island Emergency Management Agency; the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Federal Communications Commission; the National Weather Service (Taunton, MA); State and local officials; the Rhode Island Broadcasters Association;

  • Motiftv June 19 – 26 95.5 WBRU Summer Concert Series: Torn Shorts
    MotifTV June 19 – 26 95.5 WBRU Summer Concert Series: Torn Shorts By Jeffrey Folker June nights: not too hot for a stroll in the park, not too cold for an Awful Awful from Newport Creamery. Growing up in New Jersey, three miles from the Atlantic Ocean, summer has always been the time of year to relax, hit the beach for a tan, and grab an ice cold beer at the local establishment. Now living in Providence, summer has a new meaning: 95.5 WBRU’s Free Summer Concert Series. In the heart of downtown Providence, catchy beach-y, blues-inspired, indie rock (that’s a mouthful) tones filled the scenic Waterplace Park on June 14th, as over 1,000 spectators sat, laid, or danced – enthralled by the musical talents of local band Torn Shorts and a night of good, clean fun. Lead by front man Josh Grabert, Torn Shorts has taken the New England music scene by storm after winning WBRU’s 2013 Rock Hunt. According to Michael Christofaro, (Marketing Coordinator and Photographer for the City of Providence), early June has a reputation among city event planners for rather unpredictable weather– in past years, rainouts have pushed the concert series indoors (to Lupo’s). After a rainy morning on Friday, by mid-afternoon, the weather had cleared enough to keep the concert outside. If nothing else, people-watching entertained many, as venders sold the usual Waterfire wares, kids as young as 1 sat with families, punks, grandparents, and even a handful of dogs, PVD Pudding Pops sold their… well, pudding pops, Dunkin Donuts handed out free samples of their newest coffee line (which was phenomenal!), and kayakers floated lazily down the Providence River, drinking in the sounds of the city.

  • Federal Communicatiorts Commission Record 11 FCC Red No
    FCC 96-96 Federal Communicatiorts Commission Record 11 FCC Red No. 7 II. DISCUSSION Before the 3. NMP derived its factual allegations from the licensees' Federal Communications Commission license renewal applications. Review of the licensees' Washington, D.C. 20554 records led us initially to conclude that the NMP presented a prima f acie case against the two stations, demonstrating In re Applications of1 that unconditional grant of the renewal applications would have been inconsistent with the public interest. See Section Newport Broadcasting, Inc. 309(d)(l) of the Communications Act, as amended, 47 U.S.C. § 309(d)(l). Astroline Communications v. FCC, 857 For Renewal of License for F.2d 1556 (Astroline).

However, subsequent review of NMP's EEO allega­ tions, as well as the licensees' renewal applications, opposi­ and tion and inquiry response, leads us to conclude that there are no substantial and material questions of fact warranting Perry Communications designation for hearing.
