Facilitating the Provision of Fixed and Mobile Broadband Access, Educational and Other Advanced Services in the 2150-2162 and 2500-2690 MHz Bands
In this document, the Commission modifies the construction deadline applicable to new initial Broadband Radio Service (BRS) licenses granted on or after November 6, 2009. Specifically, the Commission permits these BRS licensees to demonstrate substantial service four years from the date of license grant rather than on or before May 1, 2011. The Commission further modifies the construction rule by clarifying that BRS and Educational Broadband Service (EBS) licensees may demonstrate substantial service by meeting one of the safe harbors specified in the rule and that they may, under certain circumstances, demonstrate substantial service by combining licenses. Finally, on its own motion, the Commission corrects a clerical error in its rules governing the pre-transition frequency assignments for BRS Channel 1. These actions clarify the requirements necessary for BRS and EBS licensees to demonstrate substantial service and ensure that BRS licensees of new initial licenses are given a reasonable period of time to deploy service, while ensuring that spectrum is rapidly placed in use.

Physical Protection of Byproduct Material
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing to amend its regulations to establish security requirements for the use and transport of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material, which the NRC considers to be risk-significant and therefore to warrant additional protection. Category 1 and category 2 thresholds are based on those established in the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive Sources which NRC endorses. The objective of this proposed rule is to provide reasonable assurance of preventing the theft or diversion of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The proposed regulations would also include security requirements for the transportation of irradiated reactor fuel that weighs 100 grams or less in net weight of irradiated fuel. The proposed rule would affect any licensee that is authorized to possess category 1 or category 2 quantities of radioactive material, any licensee that transports these materials using ground transportation, and any licensee that transports small quantities of irradiated reactor fuel.
