"The American people expect quick and effective recoveries from natural disasters like Hurricane Michael and other storms," said Pai in a release. "That's why we are re-examining the last administration's framework to make sure all wireless carriers are meeting communities' needs and doing everything they can to promptly restore service after a natural disaster."

The review comes after Hurricane Michael knocked out power for hundreds of thousands residents in Florida last month. The 155 mile-per-hour winds also ripped apart fiber networks that were used to deliver broadband and mobile service to the region. In the same month, Pai asked carriers to waive bills for victims of this disaster and allow them to change carriers without penalty.
