NTIA is hosting a symposium to focus on implementing the National

[[Page 89410]]

was accompanied by a Presidential Memorandum titled ``Modernizing 
United States Spectrum Policy and Establishing a National Spectrum 
Strategy,'' which calls for the Secretary of Commerce, acting through 
NTIA, to publish an Implementation Plan for the Strategy. This will 
chart the course for federal agency actions, pursuant to the 
Presidential Memorandum, to further the policy objectives stated in the 
Strategy.
    The strategic objectives in the Strategy are grouped under four 
``pillars'' for further action:
    <bullet> Pillar One: A spectrum pipeline to ensure U.S. leadership 
in advanced and emerging technologies;
    <bullet> Pillar Two: Collaborative long-term planning to support 
the nation's evolving spectrum needs;
    <bullet> Pillar Three: Unprecedented spectrum innovation, access, 
and management through technology development; and
    <bullet> Pillar Four: Expanded spectrum expertise and elevated 
national awareness.
    Speakers from the Department of Commerce, the Executive Office of 
the President, the Federal Communications Commission and Congress have 
been invited to provide keynote remarks. Panelists are expected to 
include participants from the FCC, Executive Branch agencies, and the 
private sector. Prior to the symposium event, NTIA will post detailed 
program information on its website: www.ntia.gov.
    The symposium is open to the public and members of the press to 
attend or to view through a webcast available on the NTIA website. 
While it is not required, NTIA asks that online attendees provide 
registration information prior to the event. This information will 
include names, email addresses, and organizations (optional). 
Registration information, the agenda, meeting updates, if any, and
