In the Matter of Creation of Low Power Radio Service, MM Docket No.
99-25, Memorandum Opinion and Order on Reconsideration

# Dissenting Statement of Commissioner Harold W. Furchtgott-Roth

For the reasons given in my dissent from the original Report and Order
on low power radio,[^1] I dissent from this Order on Reconsideration.
This Order reaffirms the Commission's threshold decision to create the
service and remove existing adjacent channel protections, and I disagree
strongly with that course of action.

In addition, I note that the Commission continues to forge relentlessly
ahead on this issue, notwithstanding the expression of substantial
Congressional disapproval of its approach to the creation of this
service and the serious interference questions for existing broadcasters
and their listeners that remain unresolved to this day. A higher regard
for Congress, and for those broadcasters who today serve their
communities ably and well, would counsel a more serious reconsideration
of this issue than that performed today.

[EMSHG Chief Consultant Expert Panelist at USMI Forum]{.underline}

On March, 6, 2003, EMSHG Chief Consultant, Kristi L. Koenig, MD, FACEP,
was an invited speaker at the US Medicine Institute for Health Studies
interactive forum entitled "Weaving a National Surveillance Network: the
Role of Federal Healthcare." Forum attendance was by invitation only and
limited to about 80 high-level decision makers in government and
industry. Dr. Koenig spoke about the VA national surveillance system
including the Biological Threat Interrogatories developed by a task
force led by Dr. Gary Roselle and available on the EMSHG website at
[www.va.gov/emshg \<http://www.va.gov/emshg\>]{.underline}.

[National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) Annual Meeting a Huge
Success]{.underline}

Close to 2,000 participants attended the annual NDMS Conference, March
8-12, 2003, at Reno, Nevada. As in the past several years, EMSHG served
as the primary conference-planning group, chairing the NDMS Conference
Committee. In addition, a number of EMSHG Area Emergency Managers and
District Managers served as conference faculty. Attendees included
providers, responders and emergency managers from the Federal, State and
local arenas. Topics included information on planning for and responding
to terrorism and other catastrophic incidents, as well as Federal
Coordinating Center and health care facility preparedness measures for
potential war. On March 13-14 (following the general conference), EMSHG
conducted their annual meeting and education/training session.

[EMSHG Participates in JCAHO Press Conference]{.underline}

On March 12, 2003, the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare
Organizations (JCAHO) held a national press conference to unveil a white
paper on Emergency Preparedness. JCAHO hosted a series of roundtables
and a national summit with a 28-member expert panel in order to gain
broad input for the report. The white paper emphasizes the importance of
planning at the local level and key systems priorities such as surge
capacity, protection of caregivers, and the provision of mental health
support. VA language that emphasizes an all-hazard, comprehensive
emergency management approach, community planning, and use of a hospital
incident command system was adopted by JCAHO in January 2001 and noted
by participants to be very useful in the aftermath of 9/11. Dr. Dennis
O'Leary, Mr. Mark Ackermann, Dr. Mark Smith, Commissioner Edward
Gabriel, and Dr. Kristi L. Koenig participated as subject matter experts
and resources to the press on a one-hour conference call.
**Rapport Building: Topic 2** **Exercise 2.1a**

**Barriers to Effective Communication**

**Cross-cultural Nutrition Awareness Quiz**

Read the following questions and circle true for those statements you
believe are correct and false for those you believe are not true.

  ------ ------- ---------------------------------------------------------
  True   False   1\. Most people who share a common language belong to the
                 same culture.

  True   False   2\. Race is a good indicator of food selections.

  True   False   3\. When faced with a language barrier in a
                 cross-cultural setting, children should be asked to
                 translate.

  True   False   4\. One prerequisite for competent cross-cultural
                 counseling is awareness of one's own beliefs and values.

  True   False   5\. The most effective way to sharpen cross-cultural
                 nutrition counseling skills is to learn more about the
                 eating patterns of the culturally different.

  True   False   6\. The most valuable skill in cross-cultural nutrition
                 counseling is listening.

  True   False   7\. During a cross-cultural counseling session, the
                 patient's nonverbal cues are a good indicator of how well
                 the session is going.

  True   False   8\. It is usually harder for people to change food
                 preferences than it is to change food practices such as
                 food-preparation methods, portion sizes, and frequency of
                 consumption.

  True   False   9\. Asking the question "How long have you been in the
                 United States?" is a good indicator of how closely your
                 client is following traditional food practices.

The Center for Public Administration and Policy at Virginia Tech offers
M.P.A. And Ph.D. Degrees in public administration and public policy. The
center routinely offers courses in homeland security and includes a
focus on disasters and emergency management. Many of our students serve
in emergency management positions in government, and students produce
theses and dissertations in the fields of homeland security and
emergency management. We are considering developing a certificate in
these fields, and we are interested in the relationship between
emergency management and homeland security. Are the two fields
complementary? Is homeland security here to stay?

I hope to learn more about possibilities for emergency management
curriculum development at the EMI higher education conference. I'm also
interested in how our degree programs can prepare students to think
about the organizational and management issues involved in emergency
management.\

HOJA INFORMATIVA SOBRE LA VIRUELA

Qué hacer después de recibir la vacuna contra la viruela

La vacuna contra la viruela contiene un virus vivo llamado vaccinia.
Después de la vacunación, este virus se queda en el sitio donde se
aplicó la vacuna y, por contacto, puede propagarse a otras partes del
cuerpo o a otras personas. Para evitar que esto suceda, hay que cuidar
muy bien ese sitio hasta que la costra que se forma después de la
vacunación se caiga por sí sola (en un lapso de unas 2 a 3 semanas).
Siga estas instrucciones:

# LO QUE DEBE HACER:

-   **Cubra el sitio de la vacunación con una venda de gasa que quede
    holgada y utilice adhesivo para sujetarla.** Mantenga el sitio
    cubierto hasta que la costra se desprenda por sí sola. Esta venda
    servirá de barrera protectora para evitar la propagación del virus
    vaccinia. (Los trabajadores de salud que están en contacto directo
    con los pacientes deberán cubrir la gasa con un vendaje
    semipermeable como barrera complementaria).

-   **Puede llevar una camisa que cubra el sitio de la vacunación** como
    una precaución **más** para evitar la propagación del virus
    vaccinia. Esto es particularmente importante en situaciones de
    contacto personal muy cercano.

-   **Cambie la venda cada 1 a 2 días.** Esto evitará que la piel del
    sitio de la vacunación se ablande y se desgaste.

-   **Lávese las manos con jabón y agua tibia después de haber tenido
    contacto directo con la venda o con el sitio de la vacunación.**
    Esto es fundamental a objeto de eliminar todo el virus de sus manos
    y evitar la propagación por contacto.

-   **Mantenga seco el sitio de la vacunación.** Cuando se bañe cubra el
    sitio de la vacunación con un material resistente al agua, como por
    ejemplo una tirita (band-aid) a prueba de agua. Recuerde volver a
    ponerse la venda holgada de gasa después de bañarse.

-   **Coloque las vendas contaminadas en una bolsa plástica sellada y
    échelas a la basura.**

-   **Lave la ropa o cualquier otro material que haya estado en contacto
    con el sitio de la vacunación.** Utilice agua caliente con
    detergente y blanqueador (cloro).

-   Cuando se caiga la costra, **échela a la basura en una bolsa
    plástica sellada** (recuerde lavarse las manos después).

# NO DEBERÁ:

-   **Utilizar una venda que impida el paso del aire al sitio de la
    vacunación.** Esto puede hacer que la piel en ese sitio se ablande y
    se desgaste. Utilice una gasa que quede holgada sobre el sitio y
    asegúrela con adhesivo.

-   **No coloque pomadas o ungüentos en el sitio de la vacunación.**

-   **No se rasque ni escarbe la costra.**

### Office of Congressman Jeff Flake

***News Release***

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:** Tuesday, May 10, 2005

**CONTACT :** Matthew Specht (202) 225-2635

# **Congressman Flake Urges Senators to Reject Attempt to Add More Money to Transportation Bill**

## *President Bush Has Threatened to Veto the Transportation Bill if It Exceeds \$284 Billion*

**Washington, D.C**. - Arizona Congressman Jeff Flake, who represents
the state's Sixth District, today urged the Senate to reject an attempt
to add more money to the transportation bill.

Senators Grassley and Baucus are expected to offer an amendment that
would add \$11.2 billion to the bill's price tag, despite a threat from
President Bush to veto the bill if it exceeds \$284 billion.

**"Because the Senate can't fit all of its pork into a \$284 billion
bill, they're trying to bloat it even more**," said Flake.

**"I think taxpayers would be well-served if President Bush were to veto
the House version of the bill and send lawmakers back to the drawing
board, but a veto on a bill over \$284 billion ought to be a
no-brainer."**

Congressman Flake favors an approach to transportation issues that would
greatly reduce the federal gas tax and return discretionary authority
and fiscal responsibility for transportation programs to the states.

**Wireless Telecommunications Bureau**

**Establishes Pleading Cycle for Request**

**for Authorization to Participate in the AirCell System**

On December 24, 1998, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau)
issued an order granting, in part, AirCell, Inc.\'s (AirCell) Petition
for Waiver.[^1] In that order, the Bureau granted a request for waiver
of section 22.925 of the Commission\'s rules,[^2] subject to certain
conditions. In the *AirCell Order*, the Bureau stated that future
cellular operators seeking to become participants in the AirCell system
must file requests for waiver.

On November 2, 1999, AirCell and Western Wireless Corporation, filed a
petition for waiver of section 22.925 and for authorization to
participate in the AirCell system.

The deadline for filing Oppositions to this waiver request is **December
2, 1999**. The deadline for filing Replies to any Oppositions is
**December 9, 1999**.

As with all other matters associated with the AirCell proceeding,[^3]
including previous waiver petitions, this waiver request will be
treated, for *ex parte* purposes, as a \"permit-but-disclose\"
proceeding, subject to the applicable requirements set forth under
Section 1.1206(b) of the Commission\'s rules, 47 C.F.R.  1.1206(b), as
revised.

**Comment Date: July 22, 2004**

**Reply Comment Date: August 6, 2004**

On June 15, 2004, the Media Bureau (Bureau) released a Public Notice, DA
04-1690, inviting comment on constitutionally permissible ways to
further the mandates of Section 257 of the Telecommunications Act of
1996, 47 U.S.C. § 257, which directs the FCC to identify and eliminate
market entry barriers for small telecommunications businesses, and
Section 309(j) of the Communications Act of 1934, 47 U.S.C. § 309(j),
which requires the FCC to further opportunities in the allocation of
spectrum-based services for small businesses and businesses owned by
women and minorities. The Public Notice encouraged commenters to discuss
possible next steps to further these statutory objectives in a
constitutionally permissible manner in light of two recent Supreme Court
decisions cited in that Public Notice. The Public Notice also asked
commenters to discuss and proffer specific recommendations for building
on a series of market entry barrier studies, cited in the Public Notice,
which were released by the Commission in December 2000. The Bureau urged
commenters to identify any recent analyses relevant to the conclusions
of the studies. The Public Notice set deadlines for filing comments and
reply comments at 30 and 45 days after publication of the Public Notice
in the Federal Register.

On June 22, 2004, a summary of the Public Notice was published in the
Federal Register (69 FR 34672). Accordingly, comments must be filed on
or before July 22, 2004, and reply comments must be filed on or before
August 6, 2004. Comments and reply comments may be filed through the
Commission's Electronic Filing System or by filing paper copies (an
original and four copies) as set forth in the June 15 Public Notice.

The studies are available on the FCC's web site at
[http://www.fcc.gov/opportunity/meb_study/,]{.underline} except for the
Advertising Study, which is available on the FCC's web site at

**Sullivan Recognizes *Kelo* Anniversary**

**WASHINGTON, D.C.** -- Today, Congressman John Sullivan delivered the
following remarks on the floor of the House of Representatives. June 23,
2008 marked the three year anniversary of the infamous U.S. Supreme
Court decision in the *Kelo v. City of New London* case.

**"Mr. Speaker,**

**"Yesterday was the third anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's 2005
decision in the *Kelo v. City of New London* case.**

**"In that decision, a divided Supreme Court ruled that the government
may take people\'s homes and bulldoze them to make way for strip malls
or other private development in order to increase tax revenue.**

**"The negative affects of this far reaching decision places all private
property owners at risk. No property owner is safe if the government
decides that their land would serve a better purpose and be an economic
gain if something bigger or more taxable were in its place.**

**"To combat these unjust property takings I introduced H.R. 6219 to
protect the rights of private property owners.**

**"With this bill, all Americans now have the tools they need to fight
unjust property takings and defend their homes and small businesses.**

**"I yield back the balance of my time."**
