   The Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions (“ATIS”) has   
   been seeking to modify FCC requirements for hearing-aid compatibility.   
      
   The following is from an FCC Public Notice:   
      
    - - - - - - - -   
   WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS BUREAU SEEKS COMMENT ON ATIS WAIVER   
   REQUEST ON BEHALF OF THE COVERED ENTITIES OF THE HEARING AID   
   COMPATIBILITY TASK FORCE   
      
   The Wireless Telecommunications Bureau seeks comment on a petition for   
   waiver (Petition) filed by ATIS requesting waiver of section   
   20.19(b)(1) and (b)(3) of the Commission’s rules for all entities   
   subject to the hearing aid compatibility rules. The Petition seeks to   
   allow wireless handsets to satisfy a reduced volume control testing   
   methodology to be certified as hearing-aid compatible. In particular,   
   we seek comment on this waiver request in the context of the   
   Commission’s commitment to attaining 100% hearing aid compatibility of   
   covered wireless handsets, as soon as achievable, as well as the   
   Commission’s previous finding that a volume control requirement is   
   necessary “to ensure the provision of effective telecommunications for   
   people with hearing loss.”
