    The Committee was established on July 19, 1965 as the Frequency

The objective of the Committee is to advise the Secretary of Commerce 
on radio frequency spectrum planning matters and means by which the 
effectiveness of Federal Government frequency management may be 
enhanced. The Committee consists of nineteen members, fifteen from the 
private sector, and four from the Federal Government, whose knowledge 
of telecommunications is balanced in the functional areas of 
manufacturing, analysis and planning, operations, research, academia 
and international negotiations.
    The principal agenda items for the meeting will be:
    (1) Land Mobile Spectrum Planning Options Report;
    (2) Public and Private Understanding of NTIA's Mission;
    (3) Results of WRC-95;
    (4) Public Safety Wireless Advisory Committee (PSWAC) Update;
    (5) Update of Automated ITU Spectrum Management System.
    The meeting will be open to public observations. Public entrance to 
the building is on 14th Street between Pennsylvania Avenue and 
Constitution Avenue. A period will be set aside for oral comments or 
questions by the public which do not exceed 10 minutes each per member 
of the public. More extensive questions or comments should be submitted 
in writing before January 11, 1996. Other public statements regarding 
Committee affairs may be submitted at any time before or after the 
meeting. Approximately 20 seats will be available for the public on a
