FCC approves recommendations for WARC-07

THE FCC'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE FOR THE 2007 WORLD RADIOCOMMUNICATION CONFERENCE APPROVES
RECOMMENDATIONS ON WRC-07 ISSUES

IB Docket No. 04-286

On April 4, 2005, the World Radiocommunication Conference Advisory Committee (WRC-07 Advisory Committee) approved recommendations to the Commission on a number of issues that will be considered by the 2007 World Radio-communication Conference (WRC-07).

The WRC-07 Advisory Committee was established by the Commission in January 2004 to assist it in the development of proposals for WRC-07. To that end, the WRC-07 Advisory Committee has forwarded the recommendations it has developed since the beginning of 2004 to the Commission for consideration.

We appreciate the substantial amount of work that the WRC-07 Advisory Committee has put into developing its recommendations. We have attached to this Public Notice the WRC-07 Advisory Committee's recommendations that were approved at the April 4, 2005 meeting and request comments on these recommendations.

Based upon our initial review of the recommendations forwarded to the Commission, the International Bureau in coordination with other Commission Bureaus and Offices tentatively concludes that we can generally support the attached WRC-07 Advisory Committee recommendations. We seek comments on the recommendations that appear in all of the WRC-07 Advisory Committee documents and on our initial impressions.

In addition, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) has provided to the Commission preliminary views and draft proposals that have been developed by the Executive Branch Agencies. We also request comment on these documents.

The comments provided will assist the FCC in its upcoming consultations with the U.S. Department of State and NTIA in the development of U.S. positions for WRC-07. The recommendations that are attached to this Public Notice may evolve in the course of interagency discussions as we approach WRC?07 and, therefore, do not constitute a final U.S. Government position on any issue.
