What is the Network Outage Reporting System (NORS)?
NORS is the web-based filing system through which communications providers, covered by Part 4 of the FCCs reporting rules, submit reports to the FCC. This system uses an electronic template to promote ease of reporting and encryption technology to ensure the security of the information filed. Providers must report outages to NORS if the outages last at least 30 minutes and/or affects at least 900,000 minutes of service, and other conditions which are set forth in Part 4 of the FCCs reporting rules. Please visit the NORS webpage for more information.
