that public safety agencies in all areas of government, including state,
municipality, county, and Native American Tribal, and non-governmental
organizations eligible under Section 90.523 of the Commission's rules,
be represented in order to ensure that each agency's future spectrum
needs are considered in the allocation process. Administrators who are
not oriented in the communications field should delegate someone with
this knowledge to attend, participate, and represent their agency's
needs.

should plan to attend. For further information, please contact:
