Needs and Uses: In the Report and 

Order, the Commission adopted rules to 

enable collaborations between satellite 

operators and terrestrial service 

providers to offer ubiquitous 

connectivity directly to consumer 

handsets using spectrum previously 

allocated only to terrestrial service. The 

Commission noted that this 

Supplemental Coverage from Space 

(SCS) framework will expand the reach 

of communications services, 

particularly emergency services, so that 

connectivity and assistance is available 

in more remote places. In recognition of 

the importance of 911 service to 

emergency response and disaster 

preparedness, the Commission also 

adopted interim 911 text and call 

routing requirements for terrestrial

providers that use SCS arrangements to 

extend their coverage service areas, 

including certain information collection 

requirements. The Commission will use 

the data generated by these information 

collections to monitor CMRS provider 

compliance as well as analyze the 

growth and development of 911 system 

access for end-users. 

Annual Reporting Requirement. 

Under 47 CFR 9.10(t)(3), each CMRS 

provider that utilizes SCS arrangements 

to expand its coverage areas for 

providing service to its end-user 

subscribers must maintain records of all 

SCS 911 voice calls and SCS 911 text 

messages received on its network and 

received at its emergency call center. In 

addition, by October 15 of each year, 

each CMRS provider that utilizes SCS 

arrangements to expand its coverage 

areas for providing service to its enduser subscribers must submit a report to 

the Commission regarding SCS 911 

voice calls and 911 text messages, and 

its emergency call center data, current 

as of September 30 of that year. CMRS 

providers must submit these reports in 

the Commission’s Electronic Comment 

Filing System. 

These reports must include, at a 

minimum: (i) The name and address of 

the CMRS provider, the address of that 

CMRS provider’s emergency call center, 

and the contact information of the 

emergency call center; (ii) The aggregate 

number of SCS 911 voice calls and SCS 

911 text messages received by the 

network of the CMRS provider that 

provides SCS service to its end-user 

subscribers during each month during 

the relevant reporting period; (iii) The 

aggregate number of SCS 911 voice calls 

and SCS 911 text messages received by 

the emergency call center each month 

during the relevant reporting period; (iv) 

The aggregate number of SCS 911 voice 

calls and SCS 911 text messages 

received by the emergency call center 

each month during the relevant 

reporting period that required 

forwarding to a PSAP and how many 

did not require forwarding to a PSAP; 

(v) The aggregate number of SCS 911 

voice calls that were routed using 

location information that met the 

timeliness and accuracy thresholds 

defined in paragraphs (s)(3)(i)(A) and 

(B) of this section; (vi) The aggregate 

number of SCS 911 voice calls and SCS 

911 text messages that were routed 

using location information that did not 

meet the timeliness and accuracy 

thresholds defined in paragraphs 

(s)(3)(i)(A) and (B) of this section; and 

(vii) an explanation of how the SCS 

deployment, including network 

architecture, systems, and procedures, 

will support routing SCS 911 voice calls 

and SCS 911 text messages to the 

geographically appropriate PSAP with 

sufficient location information in 

compliance with paragraph (t)(2) of this 

section. 

One-time Privacy Certification 

Requirement. Under 47 CFR 9.10(t)(4), 

CMRS providers that utilize SCS 

arrangements to expand their coverage 

areas for providing service to their enduser subscribers must certify on a onetime basis that neither they nor any 

third party they rely on to obtain 

location information or associated data 

used for compliance with paragraph 

(t)(2)(i) or (ii) will use such location 

information or associated data for any 

non-911 purpose, except with prior 

express consent or as otherwise 

permitted or required by law. The 

certification must state that the CMRS 

provider and any third parties it relies 

on to obtain location information or 

associated data used for compliance 

with paragraph (t)(2)(i) or (ii) have 

implemented measures sufficient to 

safeguard the privacy and security of 

such location information or associated 

data. CMRS providers must submit this 

one-time certification in the 

Commission’s Electronic Comment 

Filing System on the due date of the 

first report made under paragraph (t)(3) 

of this section. 

Subscriber Notification Requirement. 

Under 47 CFR 9.10(t)(5), each CMRS 

provider that utilizes SCS arrangements 

to expand its coverage areas for 

providing service to its end-user 

subscribers shall specifically advise 

every subscriber, both new and existing, 

in writing prominently and in plain 

language, of the circumstances under 

which 911 service for all SCS 911 calls 

or SCS 911 text messages may not be 

available via SCS or may be in some 

way limited by comparison to 

traditional enhanced 911 service.

Agriculture Acquisition Regulation 

(AGAR) 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, USDA. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: This United States 

Department of Agriculture (USDA) 

amends the Agriculture Acquisition 

Regulation (AGAR) to align the AGAR 

with changes to acquisition law, 

regulations, and internal USDA policies 

since the AGAR’s last major revision in 

1996. 

DATES: Effective November 6, 2024. 

ADDRESSES: The docket for this 

rulemaking is available for review at 

https://www.regulations.gov/document/ 

USDA-2024-0005-0001. The docket for 

the final rule includes comments and 

other supporting documents/materials.

Division, Office of Contracting and 

Procurement, USDA, Telephone: (202)

usda.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final 

rule is necessary to update the AGAR 

located in 48 CFR parts 401 through 

499. 

I. Background 

The AGAR implements the Federal 

Acquisition Regulation (FAR) (48 CFR 

ch. 1) where further implementation is 

needed, and supplements the FAR when 

coverage is needed for subject matter 

not covered by the FAR. USDA 

identified parts of the AGAR which 

required updating or streamlining based 

on updates to acquisition law, 

regulations, and internal USDA policies. 

USDA’s review indicated that almost all 

parts of the AGAR required revision. 

Accordingly, USDA reviewed and 

revised substantially all parts of the 

AGAR and published a proposed rule 

(89 FR 60582) on July 26, 2024. After a 

30-day comment period ending August 

26, 2024, USDA received feedback from 

five commentors on the proposed rule. 

Summary of Comments: All 

commentors generally supported the 

proposed rule and two commentors 

provided suggestions to strengthen the 

rule for clarity. No commenters 

disagreed with the goal of the rule to 

update the AGAR. The comments are 

summarized below. One commentor 

recommends USDA prohibit 

commercial operations on public lands 

and waters as the commentor believes it 

would better protect public lands, 

eliminate most corruption, and give the 

public better experiences and access to 

their lands. USDA recommends the
