The companies have agreed to pay a total of $6 million.

By Alexandra Garrett

AT&T, Verizon, Intrado and CenturyLink (now Lumen Technologies) have
agreed to settle over the Federal Communications Commission's
investigations into the network outages that led to failed 911 calls
in 2020. The four companies will implement compliance plans that
adhere to the FCC's 911 rules, as well as pay a total of $6 million in
settlement payments, according to a Friday announcement from the FCC.
