Michigan Public Safety Communications Interoperability Board

The Public Safety Communications Interoperability Board, oversees the Michigan's Public Safety Communications System (MPSCS) a 800/700 MHz radio system and telecommunications network that also provides public safety specific applications integrated into the network. The MPSCS provides statewide interoperability in digital clarity to its members in all 83 counties for local, state, federal, tribal and private partners.
