Absent a prior existing requirement for the state to use voluntary consensus standards, EPA has no authority to disapprove a SIP submission for failure to use such standards, and it would thus be inconsistent with applicable law for EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in place of a program submission that otherwise satisfies the provisions of the Clean Air Act. Therefore, the requirements of section 12(d) of the NTTA do not apply.

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. AGENCY: SUMMARY: In this document, the FCC seeks comment on proposals that 700 MHz public safety spectrum be allocated for broadband use and that a single, national public safety broadband licensee be assigned this spectrum on a primary basis. Consistent with national priorities focusing on homeland security and broadband, and the Commission’s commitment to ensure that emergency first responders have access to reliable and interoperable communications, this NPRM will allow the Commission to compile a record in an effort to determine whether there is a need for changes to the current 700 MHz public safety band plan. This NPRM seeks to promote effective public safety communications and innovation in wireless services in support of public safety and homeland security.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a summary of the Federal Communications Commission’s Ninth Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (9th NPRM), FCC 06–181, adopted and released on December 20, 2006. In the 9th NPRM, the FCC seeks comment on its proposal that the 12 MHz of spectrum at 767–773 MHz and 797–803 MHz, currently designated as wideband segments, be allocated for broadband use and that a single, national public safety broadband licensee be assigned this spectrum on a primary basis. Specifically, this 9th NPRM seeks to expand and build upon the themes raised in the Eighth Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Eighth NPRM), 71 FR 17786 (April 7, 2006), by proposing a comprehensive plan that may best promote the rapid deployment of a nationwide, interoperable, broadband public safety network, and thereby improve emergency responsiveness. Particularly in light of the nation’s current and anticipated public safety and homeland security needs, the FCC proposes a centralized and national approach to maximize public safety access to interoperable, broadband spectrum in the 700 MHz band, and, at the same time, foster and promote the development and deployment of advanced broadband applications, related radio technologies, and a modern, IP-based system architecture.
