Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirements contained in 47
CFR 73.623 requires applicants to
submit a technical showing to establish
that their proposed facilities will not
result in additional interference to TV
broadcast operations. The Commission
permits broadcasters to agree to
proposed TV facilities that do not
conform to the allotted parameters, even
though they might be affected by
potential new interference. The
Commission will consider granting
applications on the basis of interference
agreements if it finds that such grants
will serve the public interest. These
agreements must be signed by all parties
to the agreement. In addition, the
Commission needs the following
information to enable such public
interest determinations: A list of parties
predicted to receive additional
interference from the proposed facility;
a showing as to why a grant based on
the agreements would serve the public
interest; and technical studies depicting
the additional interference. The
technical showings and interference
agreements will be used by FCC staff to
determine if the public interest would
be served by the grant of the application
and to ensure that the proposed
facilities will not result in additional
interference.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Following
consultation with the General Services
Administration the Commission intends
to re-establish the charter on or before
September 7, 2021 and provide the
Committee with authorization to operate
for two years from the effective date.
Technology is continually evolving,
offering new opportunities to
circumvent the challenges of radio
spectrum scarcity and interference and
to foster the growth of ubiquitous, highspeed, low-latency connectivity. This
kind of technical innovation is
fundamental to the economic prosperity
and national security of the United
States. In the age of ever-faster technical
development, maintaining the United
States’ leadership in high priority
emerging technologies will require
careful planning and execution. The
Commission must stay atop of new
developments to ensure that the nation
can continue to turn scientific research
into usable communications
technologies swiftly and efficiently.
The Committee provides technical
advice and makes recommendations to
the Commission on issues and questions
presented to it by the Commission. The
Committee will focus on key issues
affecting the development and
deployment of emerging
communications technologies to spur
opportunities for innovation,
competition, adoption, greater
efficiencies, job creation, and other
national priorities. The Committee will
address questions referred to it through
the Designated Federal Officer by the
FCC Chair, the Chief of the FCC Office
of Engineering and Technology, or the
FCC Chief Technology Officer. The
questions referred to the Committee will
be directed to technological and
technical issues in the field of
communications.
The Committee is organized under,
and operates in accordance with, the
provisions of the FACA. The Committee
will be solely advisory in nature.
Consistent with FACA and its
requirements, each meeting of the
Committee will be open to the public
unless otherwise noticed. Records will
be maintained of each meeting and
made available for public inspection.
All activities of the Committee will be
conducted in an open, transparent, and
accessible manner. The Committee shall
terminate on September 7, 2023, or
earlier upon the completion of its work

year, with the possibility of more
frequent meetings by informal
subcommittees. The meetings of the
Committee will be described in a Public
Notice issued and published in the
Federal Register at least fifteen (15)
days prior to the first meeting date. In
addition, as needed, working groups or
subcommittees (ad hoc or steering) will
be established to facilitate the
Committee’s work between meetings of
the full Committee. All meetings,
including those of working groups and
subcommittees, will be fully accessible
to individuals with disabilities.
