Federal Government Resources

What the feds are doing to save us from the Y2K problem

The Federal Reserve Board
This Y2K site is by far the most interesting and extensive of all the government sites. It doesn't soft-pedal the crisis, it meets it head-on with documents, resources and links to more information.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
This is mostly a public relations site devoid of useful information. If you want the real story, click to the TIME Digital special report on Y2K and the FAA. For breaking news, go to the FAA Public Affairs Office press release listing.

The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC)

If you are concerned about Y2K and banking, go to this site first. For a quick overview, try the Special Report on the Year 2000, Your Bank and You.

Year 2000 Hearing Transcripts
These hearings were held in early 1998 before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Science, Subcommittee on Technology. They were very critical of most government agencies, so if you think the feds have things under control, take a look at these transcripts and get ready to be alarmed.

The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council
Read about the Y2K compliance tests that all banks must take in order to renew their credentials with the federal government.

Federal Communications Commission
The FCC has a very slick-looking Y2K site. Hopefully, it reflects some substance in the FCC's readiness.

Small Business Administration
Help for small businesses in dealing with Y2K.

Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act
This 1998 law was designed to promote the free exchange of information on Y2K.
