[Sean Donelan <sean () donelan com>]

The preliminary FCC outage reports have been filed about telecommunication
problems due to the terrorist attacks in New York City.  Only three carriers
have filed reports, so far.  As is normal, the preliminary reports are
simply notification something happened.  Analysis and detailed information
is normally filed as part of the final report in 30 days.

The Pentagon, because it is a national security facility, will only
have an FCC outage report filed if the Pentagon directs Verizon to file
one.
