FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[DA 08–2070; WT Docket No. 08–165] 

Wireless Telecommunications Bureau 

Grants Extension of Time To File 

Comments on CTIA’s Petition for 

Declaratory Ruling Regarding Wireless 

Facilities Siting 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission) finds that a short period 

of additional time will permit all 

interested parties to file more thorough 

and thoughtful comments on a July 11, 

2008 petition for Declaratory Ruling 

(Petition) filed by CTIA—The Wireless 

Association (CTIA). In its Petition, CTIA 

asked the Commission to clarify the 

provisions of section 332(c)(7)(B)(v) of 

the Communications Act, as amended, 

that CTIA contends are ambiguous and 

that have been unreasonably 

interpreted. CTIA further requested that 

the Commission preempt local 

ordinances and state laws that it 

believes violate section 253(a) of the 

Communications Act, as amended. The 

Commission states that an extension of 

time for comments and reply comments 

should lead to a more complete and 

better-informed record, and thus, it 

finds that good cause exists to provide 

all parties an extension of time for filing 

comments and reply comments on the 

Petition. 

DATES: Interested parties may file 

comments on or before September 29, 

2008, and reply comments on or before 

October 14, 2008. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

identified by WT Docket No. 08–165, by 

any of the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: http:// 

www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

instructions for submitting comments. 

• Federal Communications 

Commission’s Web Site: http://

of 1934, as amended (Communications 

Act) regarding state and local review of 

wireless facility siting applications.1

Specifically, CTIA asks the Commission 

to ‘‘resolve open questions regarding the 

time frames in which zoning authorities 

must act on siting requests, the 

importance of competitive entry by 

multiple providers in each market, and 

the impropriety of unduly burdensome 

requirements imposed on wireless 

providers but not on other entities.’’ 2

On August 14, 2008, the Commission 

established a pleading cycle for 

comments on the CTIA Petition.3 The 

current deadline for comments is 

September 15, 2008, and the current 

deadline for reply comments is 

September 29, 2008. 

On August 22, 2008, Montgomery 

County, Maryland (Montgomery 

County) filed a Motion for Extension of 

Time. On August 25, 2008, the National 

Association of Telecommunications 

Officers and Advisors (NATOA), the 

National Association of Counties, the 

National League of Cities, and the 

United States Conference of Mayors 

(collectively Associations) filed a 

motion to extend the time for filing 

comments and reply comments. On 

August 26, 2008, the Greater Metro 

Telecommunications Consortium and 

Rainier Communications Commission 

filed an amended motion to extend the 

time for filing comments and reply 

comments. Each of the motions requests 

a comment period of 90 days and a 

reply comment period of 45 days. On 

August 26, 2008, CTIA filed an 

Opposition to Motions for Extension of 

Time that addresses these three 

motions. On August 29, 2008, 

Montgomery County, Maryland filed a 

Reply to CTIA’s opposition to the 

motions for extension of time. On 

September 8, 2008, the cities of Bar 

Harbor Islands, Cutler Bay, Hollywood, 

Homestead, Miramar, Sunrise, and 

Weston (collectively Florida Cities) filed 

a Motion for Extension of Time seeking 

an additional 30 days to file their 

comments. Also on September 8, 2008, 

the Airports Council International-North 

America (ACI–NA) filed a motion to 

extend the time for filing comments and 

reply comments by 30 days and 15 days, 

respectively. 

In support of their motions, 

Montgomery County and the 

Associations note that NATOA’s annual 

conference takes place immediately 

after initial comments are due, and that 

many attendees are involved in the 

processes that the petition addresses. In 

addition, the Associations explain that 

the current deadline does not allow 

enough time for them to complete an 

analysis and provide comments on the 

complex legal and factual issues raised 

by CTIA’s Petition. The Associations 

also indicate that they need additional 

time to identify local governments that 

the Petition alleges to have engaged in 

certain conduct and to address those 

allegations. Montgomery County further 

states that given that the petition rests 

on factual assertions, and that the 

petition seeks to change how sections 

332 and 253 of the Communications 

Act 4 have been applied for the last 

twelve years, it is important to allow 

sufficient time for local governments to 

provide reasonable responses. Florida 

Cities ask for an extension of time to file 

their comments due to the effects that 

Hurricane Ike is likely to have on them. 

ACI–NA also contends that granting an 

extension will not harm or otherwise 

prejudice the Commission or any 

interested party. In its Opposition, CTIA 

asserts that the comment dates provide 

adequate time for parties, and that the 

motions do not provide an adequate 

rationale for an extension. 

The Commission notes its policy that 

extensions of time shall not be routinely 

granted. The Commission finds that the 

moving parties have not established 

good cause for the full extensions that 

they request, but it states that a short 

period of additional time will permit all 

interested parties to file more thorough 

and thoughtful comments, which 

should lead to a more complete and 

better-informed record. The 

Commission thus finds that good cause 

exists to provide all parties an extension 

of time from September 15, 2008 to 

September 29, 2008 for filing comments 

in this proceeding and from September 

30, 2008 to October 14, 2008 for filing 

reply comments in this proceeding. 

This proceeding has been designated 

as a ‘‘permit-but-disclose’’ proceeding in 

accordance with the Commission’s ex 

parte rules.5 Parties making oral ex 

parte presentations in this proceeding 

are reminded that memoranda 

summarizing the presentation must 

contain the presentation’s substance and 

not merely list the subjects discussed.6

More than a one-or two-sentence 

description of the views and arguments 

presented is generally required.7

Pursuant to §§ 1.415 and 1.419 of the 

Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415 and 

1.419, interested parties may file 

comments and reply comments on or 

before the dates indicated on the first
