WASHINGTON, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Floods, high winds, snow and related power outages brought on by Hurricane Sandy knocked out a small number of 911 call centers, forcing the emergency service to be rerouted, a top Federal Communications official said on Tuesday.
Some of the rerouted calls came in without location data, Agency Chairman Julius Genachowski said at a press conference to discuss communications outages.
FCC officials declined to say where the affected call centers were.
