WASHINGTON, June 25 (Reuters) - Verizon Communications' ( VZ )

wireless unit will pay a $1.05 million fine to resolve an

investigation that the company violated government rules by

failing to deliver 911 calls during an outage in December 2022

in six states.

The FCC said a December 2022 outage lasted for one hour and

forty-four minutes and prevented hundreds of 911 calls from

completing through Verizon Wireless's network and was similar to

one that Verizon Wireless experienced in October 2022.
