Federal Communications Commission

This document summarizes the procedures, deadlines, and upfront payment and minimum opening bid amounts for the upcoming auction of FM broadcast construction permits. The Auction 114 Procedures Public Notice summarized here provides details regarding the procedures, terms, conditions, dates, and deadlines governing participation in Auction 114 bidding, as well as overview of the post- auction application and payment processes.

In the Report and Order, the Federal Communications Commission (the FCC or the Commission) seeks to preserve the public's trust in the Emergency Alert System (EAS) by requiring targeted cybersecurity improvements that will help protect against hijacking by cybercriminals and our nation's adversaries.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted a Report and Order, Order of Proposed Modification, and Order on Reconsideration (Order), that expands the ecosystem for next-generation wireless services in the 3.7-4.2 GHz band (C-band) by making 160 megahertz of the 3.98-4.2 GHz band (Upper C- band) available for terrestrial wireless flexible use. This action is pursuant to Congress' direction in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act to complete a system of competitive bidding by July 4, 2027, for at least 100 megahertz of spectrum in the 3.98-4.2 GHz band. The Order creates a single 3.7 GHz Service that spans 3.7-4.14 GHz and adopts competitive bidding procedures for an auction. The Order largely applies the current Lower C-band licensing and operating rules to the Upper C-band, but it imposes more forward-leaning performance requirements. The Commission also generally adopts the Lower C-band technical rules for the Upper C-band, with certain modifications designed to reinforce a successful coexistence environment with adjacent band radio altimeters. The Order requires new licensees in the Upper C-band, as a condition of their licenses, to reimburse defined incumbent Fixed Satellite Service (FSS) licensees for reasonable and necessary costs associated with migrating FSS operations out of the reconfigured portion of the Upper C-band, consistent with the Commission's Emerging Technologies precedent. The Order also provides incentives to eligible space station operators that meet their clearing obligations by specified transition deadlines. Finally, new Upper C-band licensees must provide rebates for defined classes of eligible aircraft owners and operators to facilitate compliance with the FAA's radio altimeter retrofit requirements, which are designed to promote successful coexistence between Upper C-band licensees and radio altimeters in the 4.2-4.4 GHz band.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted a Second Report and Order that promotes the deployment of submarine cables while strengthening national security interests in connection with their modern capabilities. The Second Report and Order establishes a regulatory regime for licensing owners and/or operators of submarine line terminal equipment (SLTE), including granting a blanket license to certain current and future SLTE owners and/or operators that are not currently a licensee. The Second Report and Order adopts certain routine conditions and outlines reporting requirements for SLTE owners and operators. The Second Report and Order also adopts further national security-related routine conditions and certification requirements. Finally, the Second Report and Order adopts an approach to expedite submarine cable deployment by presumptively exempting applications that meet ten national security standards from Commission referral to the Executive Branch agencies.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission denies the petition for partial reconsideration filed by Kin[eacute]is challenging the FY 2025 Regulatory Fees Report and Order.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (the FCC or Commission) adopts rules to ensure that emerging Next Generation 911 (NG911) networks are reliable and interoperable. NG911 is replacing legacy 911 technology across the country with internet Protocol (IP)- based infrastructure that will support new 911 capabilities, including text, video, and data. However, for NG911 to be fully effective, NG911 networks must be designed to safeguard the reliability of critical components and support the interoperability needed to seamlessly transfer 911 calls and data from one network to another. The rules require entities essential to delivering emergency calls in the NG911 environment to implement common sense measures to safeguard the reliability of NG911 networks and reduce the risk of 911 outages, and require certain entities to report on their support for NG911 interoperability. The rules also eliminate unnecessary and burdensome legacy rules to increase flexibility and encourage technical innovation to make NG911 services reliable, interoperable, and accessible to all.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget has approved new information collection requirements under OMB Control Numbers 3060-0016, 3060-0466 and 3060-1216, as adopted in the Commission's Report and Order, FCC 25-84.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget has approved new information collection requirements under OMB Control Numbers 3060-1156 and 3060-0944, as adopted by the Commission's Report and Order, FCC 25-49.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) modernizes the Disaster Information Reporting System (DIRS) to reduce reporting burdens on stakeholders and ensure that the information being collected is useful for disaster response. Our modernization allows manual filers to submit a single, dynamic form instead of multiple worksheets, and enables them to use a "one-click" option to easily indicate there is no change from the previous day's report. Further, unnecessary fields and worksheets will be eliminated to ensure that DIRS is collecting the information that is most important for emergency response. This modernization also eliminates the requirement for service providers to file a DIRS final report within 24 hours of DIRS' deactivation, and exempts non-facilities-based providers from DIRS reporting. This document also recognizes the emergence of public safety voice and broadband networks and the critical connectivity they provide to public safety stakeholders by requiring providers of these services to submit DIRS reports on the status of their public safety network infrastructure. Finally, we augment providers' ability to voluntarily submit geospatial information on infrastructure affected by disasters. Together, these changes provide public safety officials with the additional information they need, while also making it easier for service providers to satisfy their reporting obligations.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopts eligibility restrictions and a limit on the number of applications that each applicant may file in the upcoming 2026 filing window for applications for new noncommercial educational (NCE) reserved band FM translator station construction permits.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted an Order that takes steps to streamline the processes associated with the Broadband Data Collection (BDC) and the National Broadband Map and alleviates unnecessary regulatory burdens on service providers and challenge process participants. The Order aligns reporting requirements for broadband availability and subscription data, expressly declines to adopt a proposal to require satellite providers to submit additional certifications and supporting data, streamlines the Fabric challenge process, adopts a maximally- streamlined process by which the BDC system automatically removes areas or locations that fail a verification or audit without requiring the provider to update its availability data after receiving notice of the failed verification or audit, and makes certain ministerial changes.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) acts to eliminate certain outdated, obsolete, and unnecessary rules to modernize its regulatory framework.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) takes action to reinforce the success and integrity of the E-Rate program by establishing a competitive bidding portal and document repository to strengthen the E-Rate program's competitive bidding rules as well as other actions to simplify and streamline program processes and procedures for E-Rate participants. In addition, the Commission adopts changes to streamline and simplify the E-Rate program while maintaining the integrity of the program and grant an Order on Reconsideration. These actions will provide greater transparency into the applicants' competitive bidding and bid evaluation and selection processes, and protect the program against waste, fraud, and abuse.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopts updates to several broadcast radio and TV rules to better reflect current application processing requirements, clarify ambiguity, and remove references to outdated procedures and legacy filing systems. Such action ensures that the Commission's rules are accurate, reducing potential confusion among the public, applicants, licensees, and practitioners, and alleviating unnecessary burdens.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopts measures to strengthen national security and encourage reciprocity in testing and certification. The FCC creates a fast-track priority review process for devices subject to Pre-Approval Guidance (PAG) for applications tested in Trusted Test Labs. Also, updates post-market surveillance and enforcement procedures, and establishes confidential reporting channels for industry participants to raise concerns about violations or national security threats. Lastly, directs development of a consolidated list of prohibited entities to streamline applicant screening and aligns ownership reporting timelines for publicly traded companies with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or we) adopts a Report and Order (Order) that revises the spectrum sharing framework for Geostationary Orbit (GSO) and Non- Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) systems that currently relies on NGSO systems complying with Equivalent Power Flux Density (EPFD) limits developed in the late-1990s. The consequence today of applying such EPFD limits in the United States is that operators must overprotect GSO systems, which in turn means that American households and businesses-- most critically in rural and remote areas--do not receive the fastest space-based NGSO satellite broadband American innovation has available. Based on the technical record in this proceeding, the Order replaces the EPFD framework with modern, performance-based GSO protection criteria. The Order extends the Commission's framework for good-faith coordination and allow NGSO and GSO operators to bargain for appropriate interference protections through voluntary, private agreement. The Order further adopts technical backstops to protect GSO systems when coordination has not been reached.

In this document, the Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the information collection associated with the Commission's revised pole attachment rules in Accelerating Wireline Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers to Infrastructure Investment, Fifth Report and Order, Fourth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, and Orders on Reconsideration, FCC 25-38, which stated that the revised rules would not become effective until OMB completed its review of any information collection requirements under the Paperwork Reduction Act and that the Bureau would announce the effective date for the revised rules by subsequent Public Notice.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on March 31, 2026. The document contained minor formatting errors in the Final Rules sections detailed below.

This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by allotting alternate Channel 265C3 at Enterprise, Utah, as the community's second local service. Channel 265C3 can be allotted to Enterprise, Utah consistent with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) west of the community. The reference coordinates are 37-35-27 NL and 113-54- 02 WL. The window period for filing applications for Channel 265C3 at Enterprise, Utah will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening this allotment for filing will be addressed by the Commission in subsequent order. See Supplementary Information.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted a Report and Order that reduces regulatory barriers and costs that hinder the transition from outdated legacy networks and services to next-generation, Internet Protocol (IP)-based infrastructure. The actions taken in the Report and Order combine common sense reforms with core consumer protections that bring the regulatory environment in line with today's communications marketplace while retaining and adopting safeguards to protect public safety and ensure 911 continuity. The Report and Order also concludes that if state or local requirements conflict with the service discontinuance framework adopted in the Report and Order, such requirements negate valid federal regulatory objectives and are subject to preemption.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (the Commission) continues its efforts to modernize its regulatory framework by rescinding facially obsolete provisions of its rules.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) addresses the risks of foreign adversary control of Commission-granted licenses and authorizations by adopting rules requiring a broad range of holders of such licenses, authorizations, or approvals to attest whether they are owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of a foreign adversary, and, if so, to disclose additional information about such foreign adversary control. Among other things, the Commission defines categories of licenses and authorizations that are subject to the rules, and establishes a streamlined process by which license and authorization holders should file their foreign adversary control attestations and disclosures.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted a Report and Order to update foreign ownership rules for common carrier and broadcast licensees to clarify the Commission's review under section 310(b) of the Communications Act of 1934. With regard to common carrier licensees, the Report and Order adopted rules to codify existing policy regarding which entity is the controlling U.S. parent; codify the Commission's advance approval policy regarding certain deemed voting interests; require identification of trusts and trustees; extend the remedial procedures and methodology to privately held companies; add requirements regarding the contents of remedial petitions; require the filing of amendments as a complete restatement to petitions for declaratory ruling; and clarify U.S. residency requirements. For broadcast licensees only, the Report and Order covers: how the Commission should process applications filed by a broadcast licensee during the pendency of a remedial petition for declaratory ruling under section 310(b)(4); and other foreign ownership considerations related to processing applications for NCE and LPFM stations. Regarding broadcast licensees only, the Report and Order directs the Media Bureau to issue processing guidelines detailing how the Commission would process applications filed by a broadcast licensee during the pendency of a remedial section 310(b)(4) petition; and clarifies other foreign ownership considerations related to processing applications for noncommercial educational (NCE) and low power FM (LPFM) stations.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopts the Office of Management and Budget's Guidance for Nonprocurement Debarment and Suspension, along with agency-specific regulations to allow the agency to further combat waste, fraud, and abuse, and remove bad actors from participation in its support programs. The Commission finds further notice and comment "unnecessary" under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) for the Commission to adopt the Guidelines (including updates made after the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in this proceeding), but elect to provide an opportunity for input on that assessment as to three of the Guidelines. A Proposed Rule relating to the Commission's adoption of updated suspension and debarment rules is published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) continues its efforts to expand broadband access in the 896-901/935-940 MHz band. This Report and Order now makes broadband available across all ten megahertz of this band. This Report and Order creates three options for 900 MHz licenses: a narrowband license; paired three-megahertz channels, called 3/3 broadband licenses: and paired five-megahertz channels, called 5/5 licenses.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) modifies its rules regarding the delegated authority of the Chairman and the Managing Director to settle claims filed against the agency under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) and the Military Personnel and Civilian Employees' Claims Act (MPCECA).

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopts rules allowing unlicensed geofenced variable power (GVP) devices to operate in the U-NII-5 and U-NII-7 portions of the 6 GHz band (5.925-7.125 GHz) at up to 11 dBm/MHz EIRP power spectral density and 24 dBm EIRP. GVP devices must use geofencing systems to prevent harmful interference to licensed microwave links and radio astronomy observatories. The geofencing systems will calculate exclusion zones where GVP devices cannot operate on specified frequencies. Each GVP access point must have a geolocation capability to determine its location and avoid operating on prohibited frequencies within the exclusion zones. Client devices must operate 6 dB below the access point's authorized power. These rules permit the GVP devices to operate at higher power than very lower power 6 GHz band unlicensed devices.

The Federal Communications Commission (the FCC or Commission) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register on January 14, 2026. The document issued a final rule regarding "Implementation of the Final Acts of the World Radiocommunication Conference (Geneva, 2015) (WRC-15), Other Allocation Issues, and Related Rule Updates".

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopts rules regarding direct access to numbers by providers of interconnected Voice over internet Protocol (VoIP) services. The Commission takes this action in furtherance of Congress' directive in the Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act to examine ways to reduce access to telephone numbers by potential perpetrators of illegal robocalls. These actions continue to safeguard U.S. numbering resources and consumers, protect national security interests, promote public safety, and ensure compliance with other important Commission rules.

This document amends the Table of TV Allotments (table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules by substituting channel *33 for channel *8 at Hutchinson, Kansas in response to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by Kansas Public Telecommunications Service, Inc. (Kansas Public or Petitioner), the licensee of noncommercial educational PBS member television station KPTS(TV) (KPTS or Station), Hutchinson, Kansas. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to move from a VHF to a UHF channel would serve the public interest by improving signal reception for viewers. The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements. The substitution of channel *33 for channel *8 in the Table will allow the Station to improve its over- the-air reception within its coverage area and is not predicted to result in viewer loss.

This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by substituting Channel 277A for vacant Channel 221A at Hamilton, Alabama; Channel 261B1 for vacant Channel 261B at Coalinga, California; Channel 289A for vacant Channel 291A at Rocksprings, Texas; Channel 261A for vacant Channel 221A at Silverton, Texas; and Channel 281C2 for vacant Channel 260C2 at Spur, Texas. The existing vacant FM channels are not in compliance with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) rules, and vacant Channel 261B at Coalinga is also not in compliance with the city-grade coverage requirements of the Commission's rules. The window period for filing applications for these vacant FM allotments will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening these allotments for filing will be addressed by the Commission in subsequent order. See Supplementary Information.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the information collections associated with the amendments to Sec. 1.8002(b)(2) under OMB Control Number 3060-0918 and the amendments to Sec. 64.6305(h) under OMB Control Number 3060-1285 adopted by the Report and Order, FCC 24-135, 91 FR 343. This document is consistent with the Report and Order, which states that Commission will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective dates of the delayed amendments.

The Federal Communications Commission published a direct final rule in the Federal Register on December 12, 2025, concerning the elimination of certain outdated, obsolete, and unnecessary rules. The Commission identified rules for repeal that plainly no longer serve the public interest because they are duplicative, outdated, or unnecessary. However, this document identifies certain rule deletions from the direct final rule that either drew "significant adverse" public comments or that the Commission itself has determined require additional notice and comment procedures. This document provides notice that the repeal instructions for these specific rules and rule parts are withdrawn, and the rules are retained.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) continues its efforts to modernize regulatory framework by rescinding facially obsolete provisions of its rules. The Commission has undertaken a sweeping review aimed at eliminating outdated rules, reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens, accelerating infrastructure deployment, promoting network modernization, and spurring innovation. The Commission's objective is to streamline, simplify, and smartly deregulate across multiple fronts simultaneously to better serve the public and support technological progress.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved, for a period of three years, information collections associated with the certain rules adopted in the Achieving 100% Wireless Handset Model Hearing Aid Compatibility Report and Order, FCC 24-112. This announcement also corrects a typographical error in the final rules.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopts certain changes to its rules concerning Class A television, low power television and TV translator stations (LPTV Service). These include operational and technical rule updates aimed at providing clarity and regulatory certainty to licensees so they can make informed business decisions about their station operations and to ensure that the public continues to benefit from their operations.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) reconsiders the E-Rate Wi-Fi hotspot and services rules adopted in July 2024. Specifically, the Commission grants the petition for reconsideration filed by Maurine and Matthew Molak and finds that the best reading of section 254 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, (the Communications Act) is that it does not permit funding of off-premises use of Wi-Fi hotspots and the associated wireless internet services with E-Rate program support. In so finding, the Commission rescinds the rules adopted in July 2024. The Commission also denies the two remaining petitions for reconsideration of the Commission's 2024 Hotspots Order. Consistent with the reconsideration, the Commission also withdraws two amendatory instructions published in the Federal Register, but delayed indefinitely.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved a non-substantive change to the information collection associated with Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) rules adopted in a Report and Order issued by the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (Multilingual WEA Implementation Report and Order). These rules describe how commercial mobile service providers who participate in WEA (Participating CMS Providers) must implement multilingual templates for the most commonly issued and most time-sensitive types of alerts in English, the next thirteen most commonly spoken languages in the United States, and American Sign Language (ASL). Specifically, Participating CMS Providers shall support the pre-scripted templates published in 90 FR 57288 for eighteen emergency events. For English and the thirteen written languages, Participating CMS Providers must support the inclusion of four fillable elements that customize the pre-scripted alert templates: the name of the sending agency, the location pertaining to the alert message, the time when the emergency conditions described in the alert are expected to end, and an optional URL. When an alert originator sends a non-English template message, Participating CMS Providers must display the corresponding pre-scripted alert message in English after the non-English message.

This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by removing certain vacant FM allotment channels that were auctioned through our FM competitive bidding process and are no longer considered vacant FM allotments. The FM allotments are currently authorized licensed stations. FM assignments for authorized stations and reserved facilities will be reflected solely in Media Bureau's Licensing Management System (LMS). These FM allotment channels have previously undergone notice and comment rule making. This action constitutes an editorial change in the Table of FM Allotments. Therefore, we find for good cause that further notice and comment are unnecessary.

The Direct Final Rule would repeal approximately 21 rule provisions and rule parts, totaling 2,927 words and covering approximately 7 pages in the Code of Federal Regulations, that plainly no longer serve the public interest because they have sunset by operation of law; govern an expired event; regulate an obsolete technology; are no longer used in practice by the FCC or licensees; or are otherwise duplicative, outdated, or unnecessary. The Direct Final Rule would find prior notice and comment "unnecessary" under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA) before repealing these rules, but elect to provide an opportunity for input on that assessment, with the identified rules automatically being repealed absent any significant adverse comments in response to this Direct Final Rule.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) modifies the United States Table of Frequency Allocations (U.S. Table) in the Commission's rules to implement certain spectrum allocation decisions from the International Telecommunication Union's World Radiocommunication Conference's 2015 Final Acts, including those for amateur radio, satellite services, and for aural broadcast auxiliary and television broadcast auxiliary stations by revising the Commission's rules. These changes provide for increased domestic utilization of a range of spectrum in both satellite and terrestrial contexts.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopts rules requiring Robocall Mitigation Database (RMD or Database) filers to take additional steps to ensure the accuracy, completeness, and currentness of submitted information. The rules also establish a base forfeiture of $10,000 for each violation for filers that submit false or inaccurate information to the Database, as well as a base forfeiture of $1,000 for failure to update information that has changed in the Database within 10 days. Further, the Wireline Competition Bureau is directed to establish a dedicated reporting mechanism for deficient filings in the Database, as well as to issue additional guidance and "best practices" for filers. Additionally, the Wireline Competition Bureau and Office of the Managing Director are directed to develop a two-factor (or more) authentication solution for accessing the Database.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) summarizes the procedures, deadlines, and upfront payment and minimum opening bid amounts for the upcoming auction of 200 Advanced Wireless Services licenses for spectrum in the Federal Communications Commission's inventory in the 1695-1710 MHz, 1755-1780 MHz, and 2155-2180 MHz bands (AWS-3 bands). This document provides details regarding the procedures, terms, conditions, dates, and deadlines governing participation in Auction 113 bidding, as well as overview of the post-auction application and payment processes.

This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by reinstating certain channels as a vacant FM allotment in various communities. The FM allotments were previously removed from the FM Table because a construction permit and/or license was granted. These FM allotments are now considered vacant because of the cancellation of the associated FM authorizations or the dismissal of long-form auction FM applications. A staff engineering analysis confirms that all of the vacant FM allotments complies with the minimum distance separation requirements and principle community coverage requirements of the Commission's rules. The window period for filing applications for these vacant FM allotments will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening these allotments for filing will be addressed by the Commission in subsequent order.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) modifies the Table of TV Allotments (table) rules by removing channel 8 at Fort Bragg and substituting channel 8 at Cloverdale, California, in response to a Petition for Rulemaking (Petition) filed by One Ministries, Inc. (Petitioner or OMI), licensee of KQSL(TV), channel 8, Fort Bragg, California. The Petitioner further requests modification of its license to specify Cloverdale as its community of license. OMI filed comments in support of the Petition, as required by the rules. Another commenter filed comments raising issues outside the scope of this proceeding and therefore the Commission declined to consider them. The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements. The public interest would be served by reallotting channel 8 from Fort Bragg to Cloverdale in the table consistent with the technical parameters set forth in the Petition.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) published a document in the Federal Register on December 10, 2025, announcing the effective and compliance date for new rules related to multilingual Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA). The document contained an incorrect date.

In this document, Commission acts to eliminate certain outdated, obsolete, and unnecessary rules.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) further refines the Alaska high-cost mobile-support programs to ensure efficient use of scarce universal service funds that will bring 5G-NR to Americans living, working, and traveling in Alaska. This document grants in part a Petition for Reconsideration and Clarification by GCI Communications Corp. (GCI) of the Alaska Connect Fund (ACF), granting it in part by modifying and clarifying several of its rules. These actions help better realign the requirements and expectations of the ACF with its intended universal service goals. This document also makes a clarifying correction to one ACF rule to better reflect its purpose expressed in the Alaska Connect Fund Order.

In this document, as directed by the Federal Communications Commission (Commission), the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (Bureau) adopts implementation parameters for multilingual Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA). The Bureau is requiring commercial mobile service providers who participate in WEA (Participating CMS Providers) to support multilingual templates for the most commonly issued and most time-sensitive types of alerts in English, the next thirteen most commonly spoken languages in the United States, and American Sign Language (ASL). The non-ASL templates must be customizable with event- specific information that utilize four fillable elements: the name of the sending agency, the location, the time, and an optional URL. The alert templates for ASL are non-fillable and signed by a Certified Deaf Interpreter (CDI). The Bureau requires WEA-capable mobile devices to accompany the display of templates with the corresponding English- language fillable template. The Bureau also announces the effective date of a previously announced amendment that was contingent on this action. Together, these steps further the Commission's goal of ensuring that WEA remains an essential and effective public safety tool that allows alert originators to warn their communities of danger and advise them to take protective action.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) modifies the Commission's previous incarcerated people's communications services (IPCS) rate caps in response to record evidence of the significant unintended consequences of those rate caps. It establishes new interim audio and video IPCS rate caps by basing the calculation of the Commission's rate caps only on billed minutes, incorporating all safety and security measure expenses that IPCS providers reported incurring, and creating an additional rate cap tier for extremely small jails. It also creates a separate interim rate additive to ensure recovery of correctional facilities' costs of administering IPCS. Additionally, it sets a new compliance date for providers' compliance with the new rules and clarifies that the rate cap, site commission, and per-minute pricing rules from the Commission's 2021 Order will no longer apply following that date.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved the information collection under OMB Control Number 3060-0703 and announces the effective date for amendments adopted by the Report and Order, FCC 25-33, 90 FR 31145 (Order), which were delayed. This document is consistent with the Order, which states that the Media Bureau will publish a document in the Federal Register announcing the effective date of the delayed amendment.

This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by Reno (KENV-TV) Licensee, Inc. (Licensee), the Licensee of full service television station KENV-DT (KENV-DT or Station), Elko, Nevada (Elko). The Licensee holds a construction permit (CP) to construct a facility on UHF channel 20 at Elko, and now requests that the Bureau substitute VHF channel 10 for UHF channel 20 in the Table with technical parameters set forth in KENV-DT's current license. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that substitution of VHF channel 10 for UHF channel 20 in the Table will allow the Station to remain on the air and continue to provide service to viewers within its service area. Given that the Licensee proposes to utilize its currently licensed parameters, we believe VHF channel 10 can be substituted for UHF channel 20 at Elko as proposed, in compliance with the principal community coverage requirements of Sec. 73.618(a) of the Commission's rules.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) issues a Third Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking comment on a broad set of additional measures to strengthen the security and integrity of its equipment authorization program. The measures include bifurcating the Covered List into producer/provider-based and production location-based categories; addressing "white labeling" of covered equipment; hardware and software bill of materials (HBOM/SBOM) disclosure requirements; further prohibitions or presumptions against authorizing equipment containing Covered List components or software; certification requirements for devices in Covered List sectors; reforms to equipment importation, marketing, and pre-authorization operation rules; restrictions on use of the FCC logo; streamlined revocation procedures; codification of permissive-change waivers for software, firmware, and hardware updates to covered equipment; codified definitions for UAS, UAS critical components, and routers; term limits on equipment authorizations; registration of Supplier's Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) devices; modernization of the Commission's equipment authorization database; updates to submarine cable Covered List rules; and a proposal to require a U.S.-based liable party for FCC-certified equipment.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes and seeks comment on rules that would eliminate state and local requirements that constrain the deployment of modern high-speed wireline infrastructure in violation of section 253 of the Communications Act (Act), particularly through the imposition of excessive delays and fees that impede infrastructure deployments and disincentivize investments in them. Based on the record resulting from a Notice of Inquiry that identified numerous challenges providers face in offering telecommunications services and deploying wireline infrastructure (2025 Notice of Inquiry), this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeks comment on codifying rules that would: establish a rebuttable presumption that state and local governments have effectively prohibited the provision of wireline telecommunications services if they fail to process all authorizations for use of public rights-of-way to provide wireline telecommunications services or to deploy wireline telecommunications infrastructure within 120 days; limit the fees that state and local governments may charge for a wireline telecommunications authorization to a reasonable approximation of the government's actual, direct costs of managing the rights-of-way with respect to that authorization and establish safe harbor fee levels that presumptively comport with that standard; require that the value of in-kind compensation demanded by state and local governments count toward any safe harbor fee levels adopted by the Commission; and prohibit state and local governments from imposing additional requirements on wireline telecommunications infrastructure deployments on the grounds that the infrastructure may be used to provide other services. The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking also seeks comment on the Commission's authority to enact these proposals.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (the Commission or FCC) announces an auction of 3,248 new flexible-use licenses in the 3.98-4.14 GHz band. The Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) and the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB) seek comment on the competitive bidding procedures and auction design to be used for this auction, which is designated as Auction 115.

Petitions for Reconsideration (Petitions) have been filed in the Commission's proceeding by Chris Webber on behalf of CRW Consulting LLC and Kristen Corra on behalf of Schools, Health & Libraries Broadband Coalition.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Second FNPRM) that seeks to further prevent evolving national security risks associated with submarine line terminal equipment (SLTEs) posed by foreign adversaries. The Second FNPRM seeks comment on the routine conditions that the Commission should consider to improve its oversight of SLTE owners and operators. The Second FNPRM seeks comment on whether the Commission should adopt routine conditions for cable landing licensees that are subject to our current licensing requirement, as amended. With respect to SLTE, the Second FNPRM also seeks comment on whether to consider consistent or differing routine conditions for cable landing licensees that own and/or operate SLTE on their licensed submarine cable, or owns an SLTE and either owns or leases the underlying fiber, capacity, or spectrum, or leases the SLTE and the underlying fiber, capacity, or spectrum to another entity. Finally, the Second FNPRM seeks comment on whether it should adopt any other routine conditions for submarine cable landing licensees, including SLTE owners and operators.

This document requests comments on a proposal to amend the Table of FM Allotments, by substituting Channel 258A for vacant Channel 248A at Whitehall, Michigan. A staff engineering analysis determines that Channel 258A can be allotted to Whitehall consistent with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements, with a site restriction of 13 kilometers (8.1 miles) northwest of the community. The reference coordinates are 43-28-30 NL and 86-27-38 WL. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (the FCC or Commission) proposes rules to enhance Next Generation 911 (NG911) interoperability and improve NG911 accessibility. Specifically, the Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking proposes requiring NG911 service providers to conduct multi-party interstate interoperability testing of 911 traffic. The Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking also seeks comment about how 911 Authorities can integrate advanced technology such as Direct Video Calling into NG911 networks to improve accessibility.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes steps to strengthen its robocall mitigation framework by enhancing Know-Your-Upstream-Provider (KYUP) requirements, improving oversight of voice service providers by the STIR/SHAKEN Governance Authority, raising caller ID attestation standards, and closing implementation gaps in STIR/SHAKEN implementation. Specifically, the Commission proposes establishing baseline KYUP information-collection, compliance review, verification, monitoring, and responsive-action requirements to ensure providers can identify and cut off bad-actor upstream providers. The Commission also proposes measures to expand the Governance Authority's vetting, enforcement, and reporting responsibilities to prevent misuse of STIR/SHAKEN certificates and to remove noncompliant providers from the authentication ecosystem. The Commission further proposes clarifying and strengthening STIR/SHAKEN attestation rules, including codifying attestation levels, defining improper attestations, and specifying permissible mechanisms for verifying number-to-customer associations. Additionally, the Commission proposes and seeks comment on additional steps to close caller ID authentication gaps, such as refining provider definitions, reconsidering exemptions, requiring providers serving end users to assign STIR/SHAKEN attestations, and ensuring calls maintain authentication information. The Commission also seeks comment on special circumstances, including addressing issues with foreign- originated calls.

A Petition for Reconsideration (Petition) has been filed in the Commission's proceeding by Brenna Sparks on behalf of DIRECTV, LLC.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted a Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) that seeks comment on eliminating outdated requirements and ways to enhance the efficiency of the Broadband Data Collection (BDC) while ensuring that the Commission continues to receive accurate, granular data. Building off the infrastructure data-based coverage restoration process established by the Commission in 2024, the FNPRM seeks comment on several approaches suggested by commenters to simplify, streamline, or otherwise reduce burdens on this coverage restoration process. The FNPRM seeks comment on several ways to simplify the collection of fixed and fixed wireless biannual submissions, specifically on: (1) either allowing providers to indicate certain fixed broadband availability data have been "grandfathered" or else simply eliminating the collection of these data; (2) eliminating the requirement that a provider report fixed broadband availability data at speeds below 25/3 Mbps as part of its biannual submission; (3) revising the Commission's rules to eliminate the requirement for providers to use and disclose maximum buffer size data in their BDC biannual submissions; and (4) revising the Commission's rules to relax the 7 meter antenna height requirement that fixed wireless providers must use when modeling their coverage. In addition, the FNPRM seeks comment on ending legacy data collections for mobile service, specifically the collection of 3G mobile broadband availability data and mobile voice data as part of a provider's biannual submission, including potential impacts on reporting for Alaska and on relevant USF programs, respectively. Furthermore, the FNPRM seeks comment on current data retention practices to develop a set of best practices instead of adopting any substantive rule. The FNPRM seeks comment on several potential challenge process improvements, specifically on: (1) allowing service providers to presumptively rebut cer

This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules by substituting channel *11 for *4 at Alamogordo, New Mexico in response to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by Vision Broadcasting Network, Inc. (Petitioner), the permittee of a new NCE television station KAVD(TV) (KAVD or Station), channel *4, Alamogordo, New Mexico (Alamogordo). In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to move to a high VHF channel would serve the public interest by improving signal reception for viewers. The Petitioner observes that the Commission has recognized that low-VHF channels have certain characteristics that have posed challenges for their use in providing digital television service. The staff engineering analysis finds that the proposal is in compliance with the Commission's principal community coverage and technical requirements.

In this document, the Wireline Competition Bureau (WCB) and the Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) of the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seek comment on the contours and specific requirements of the proposed 2026 Mandatory Data Collection for incarcerated people's communications services (IPCS). Consistent with the Commission's direction, in this document, we seek comment on proposals to modify the Commission's previous data collection to obtain data and information necessary for the Commission to set permanent rate caps for audio and video ICPS and, to the extent practicable, lessen the reporting burdens on ICPS providers.

In this document the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) requests comments on a proposal to amend the Table of FM Allotments, by deleting vacant Channel 288A at Selmer, Tennessee, because it does not comply with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Commission's rules. A staff engineering analysis determines that Channel 288A at Selmer, Tennessee is short-spaced to Station WVNA-FM by nine kilometers, and there are no alternate channels available to alleviate the existing spacing conflict that would comply with the Commission's spacing requirements. The proposed Selmer deletion is consistent with the Commission's policy that it will not retain a vacant FM channel that would not comply with the Commission's spacing requirements.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) adopted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that kicks off a process to examine how the Commission can make some of its high-cost mechanisms even more efficient and effective into the future. Ensuring a predictable High-Cost Program for years to come--call it High-Cost Modernization--will provide continuing support for our Build America Agenda, supercharge American leadership in Artificial Intelligence (AI) by efficiently supporting the broadband-capable networks upon which AI-enhanced applications and services will be delivered and accessed, and will help accelerate the transition to Internet Protocol (IP) networks.

In this document, the Space Bureau (Bureau or we) within the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on potential revisions to the set of geostationary (GSO) satellite network reference links adopted in the Modernizing Spectrum Sharing for Satellite Broadband Report and Order (Order). Ensuring the GSO reference links appropriately reflect typical and widespread GSO satellite operations in the United States will promote efficient spectrum sharing among today's broadband satellite systems.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes actions to provide additional clarity to fill the gap between its current Know Your Customer (KYC) requirement and the types of rigorous KYC steps necessary to protect consumers. Specifically, the Commission seeks comment on customer identification requirements for new and renewing customers, requirements for verifying, retaining, and re-verifying customer information, requiring more information from certain customers such as high-volume customers, and on how these efforts can complement call branding and caller name requirements the Commission may adopt. The Commission also proposes to assess penalties for violations of the KYC requirement on a per call basis. With this inquiry, the Commission aims to make it more difficult for scammers to originate illegal calls and easier to enforce against them when they do get onto the network.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (the Commission or FCC) announces an auction of certain FM broadcast construction permits. The Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) and the Media Bureau (MB) seek comment on minimum opening bid amounts and the procedures to be used for this auction, which is designated as Auction 114.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) issues a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking proposing to cease recognition of test labs, Testing Certification Bodies (TCBs), and laboratory accreditation bodies in non-MRA or trade agreement participants (i.e., non-Reciprocal Territories). The Commission also seeks comment on modernizing data analytics capabilities, and explores additional measures to protect intellectual property and national security.

In this document, the Commission proposes to revise the Audible Crawl Rule, which requires video programming providers and distributors to make non-textual visual emergency information provided during non-newscast programming accessible via a secondary audio stream. The revised rule would provide that the accessibility requirement is met if a textual crawl provides emergency information duplicative of or equivalent to non-textual visual emergency information, so long as the textual crawl is also conveyed aurally.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on revising the fee schedule of FY 2026 regulatory fees and on several additional regulatory fee issues, as described in the text below.

The Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Act of 2019 (Pub. L. 116-124, 134 Stat. 158 (2020) (codified as amended at 47 U.S.C. 1601-1609)) mandates that the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) publish and maintain a list of communications equipment and services (i.e., the Covered List) that have been determined by agencies with national security responsibilities to pose an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States or the security and safety of U.S. persons. In this document, the Commission adopted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that proposes to exclude entities identified on the "Covered List" from providing domestic interstate telecommunications services pursuant to blanket authority under section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (47 U.S.C. 214). The NPRM also seeks comment on other potential exclusions from blanket authority under section 214 and other related measures.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) seeks comment on whether to adopt changes to its numbering policies with respect to how assigned numbering resources are utilized, reported, and resold by service providers as part of its continuing effort to combat illegal robocalls. The Commission explores and proposes a broad array of solutions to strengthen the Commission's numbering requirements and policies, particularly as they relate to resellers that use numbering resources to engage in some of the most extensive illegal robocalling schemes.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes actions that would encourage and facilitate the onshoring of foreign call centers. Specifically, the Commission proposes rules and otherwise explore ways to improve customer service communications and better protect consumers' sensitive personal information by limiting use of foreign call centers and by improving standards applicable to a company's remaining foreign call center operations. It also seeks comment on extending these protections to modes of customer service communications other than calls, such as emails, texts, and on-line chats, and on ideas to deter scam and other unlawful calls made to the United States from foreign countries. Finally, it explore steps we can take to financially deter unlawful foreign-originated calls, such as bond requirements. The Commission proposes to apply these requirements to providers of telecommunications services, CMRS, interconnected VoIP service, cable television service, and DBS services, or affiliates of such providers. It also proposes to apply these requirements to the use of foreign call centers for consumer communications relating to internet access service offered by any of the foregoing providers or their affiliates and seeks comment on whether it should extend some or all of the proposed rules to providers of other types of services.

Petition for Reconsideration (Petition) has been filed in the Commission's proceedings by David S. Keir on behalf of Kin[eacute]is.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks to refresh the record on pending petitions for reconsideration of the Commission's 2020 Report and Order in the Expanding Flexible Use of the 3.7 to 4.2 GHz Band rulemaking (2020 C- band R&O) in light of certain technical proposals in the 2025 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in the Upper C-band (3.98-4.2 GHz) rulemaking (Upper C-band NPRM) and the responsive record thereto, seeking a harmonized approach across the entire C-band.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or we) looks to bring spectrum abundance for emergent space activities. "Emergent" or "emergent space operations" are those spacecraft or commercial operations in space that use radio spectrum for control of, or communications with, a spacecraft, but which are not communications satellites. Currently there is an acute shortage of usable and readily accessible spectrum for telemetry, tracking and command (TT&C) functions that are essential for operating emergent spacecraft. Accordingly, this document seeks to clarify and expand the Commission's traditional regulatory classifications so that emergent space operations have more predictable access to spectrum. Additionally, this document proposes to add a secondary allocation for the Space Operation Service (SOS) in spectrum bands that could support emergent space activities, particularly in frequency bands allocated for non-Federal use that may be lightly used in certain geographic areas. This document also proposes to allow existing licensees to lease their spectrum to earth station licensees to provide SOS in connection with emergent spacecraft.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes additional safeguards to protect against waste, fraud, and abuse, including additional mandatory reporting requirements, and proposes to extend the Commission's suspension and debarment framework to additional programs. A Final Rule relating to the Commission's adoption of revised suspension and debarment rules is published elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks to ensure that Lifeline services are used to benefit and support eligible low-income Americans, that the program's funding is protected from waste, fraud, and abuse, and that service providers are in compliance with Commission rules. The Commission also seeks to update and streamline Lifeline and related rules.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking seeking to accelerate network modernization by proposing to reform regulations that have hindered the transition to all-internet Protocol (IP) networks. Building upon the Commission's longstanding efforts to reform the legacy intercarrier compensation (ICC) framework, the Commission proposes to move remaining ICC charges to a bill-and-keep framework and detariff them, and invites comment on this proposal. To enable carriers to recover costs from their end users, the Commission proposes to eliminate ex ante pricing regulation and tariffing of end-user charges, also referred to as Telephone Access Charges (TACs). Following the transition of ICC charges to bill-and-keep, the Commission seeks comment on phasing out Connect America Fund Intercarrier Compensation (CAF ICC) support. The NPRM also seeks comment on removing remaining regulatory obligations--including tariffing and outdated account information exchange requirements--for interstate and international long-distance services, given the longstanding competitiveness of these markets. In addition, the Commission seeks comment on the elimination of regulations that will no longer be necessary in a post-Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) environment and invites input on a transitional framework to ensure regulatory and market stability during the shift to an all-IP marketplace. Finally, the Commission encourages commenters to identify ways to promote technological modernization while enhancing long-term efficiency, competition, and service quality for consumers. In all these reforms, the Commission intends to proceed thoughtfully, mindful of the complex issues, transition timelines, and paramount connectivity goals.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes to modernize its telecommunications relay services (TRS) rules and seeks comment on the use of automatic speech recognition (ASR) for speech-to- text conversion and advanced text-to-speech technologies for Internet Protocol (IP) Relay Service; the need for metrics for IP Relay quality; the compatibility of IP Relay with Real-Time Text (RTT) technology; adding captioning functionality to Video Relay Service (VRS) platforms; amending VRS calling rules for calls to U.S. embassies and consulates by U.S. residents while traveling abroad; adjusting VRS call center requirements; streamlining TRS provider certification and user registration processes; updating or eliminating obsolete rules; and closing outdated dockets. With these proposals, the Commission presents targeted reforms that align internet-based TRS with twenty-first century technological advancements in relay services that can better serve the needs of persons with disabilities while securing the viability and enhancing the effectiveness and functional equivalency of internet-based TRS.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on establishing eligibility restrictions and a limit on the number of applications that each applicant may file in the first-ever filing window for applications for new noncommercial educational (NCE) reserved band FM translator station construction permits. The proposed eligibility restrictions and application caps are intended to promote efficiency, curb speculative applications, and preserve spectrum for future secondary services.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) issued a Third Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to seek comment on two proposals to improve 6 GHz band (5.925-7.125 GHz) unlicensed device performance. One proposal would allow automated frequency coordination (AFC) systems to take into account building entry loss (BEL) when determining frequency and power- level availability for access points that are authorized to operate in both standard power and LPI modes--i.e., composite indoor/standard- power access points. This will provide stronger signals and better coverage inside homes and buildings, without increasing the risk of harmful interference to licensed services that share the 6 GHz band. Another proposal would allow low-power indoor access points to operate on cruise ships. These devices were previously banned on boats, but the Commission believes the risk of harmful interference occurring from this application is low because cruise ships are few in number and their thick metal walls block signals from escaping. The Commission also seeks comment broadly on any changes that could be made to the 6 GHz band unlicensed rules to reflect technological and business developments since the rules were first adopted in 2020.

The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) published a document in the Federal Register of February 5, 2026, concerning request for replies to oppositions on specifications for Petition for Reconsideration of Action in Rulemaking Proceeding Application for Review of Action in Rulemaking Proceeding. The document contained incorrect dates.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes rules regarding direct access to numbers by providers of interconnected Voice over internet Protocol (VoIP) services. The Commission takes this action in furtherance of Congress' directive in the Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act to examine ways to reduce access to telephone numbers by potential perpetrators of illegal robocalls. These proposals aim to safeguard U.S. numbering resources and consumers, protect national security interests, promote public safety, and ensure compliance with other important Commission rules.

In this document the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) proposes to modify the Table of TV Allotments (table) of its rules by substituting channel 10 for 36 at Norwell, Massachusetts in response to a Petition for Rulemaking filed by RNN Boston License Co., LLC (RNN or Petitioner), the licensee of WWDP(TV) (WWDP or Station) channel 10, Norwell, Massachusetts (Norwell). In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to remain on the air and continue to provide service to viewers within its service area. Given that RNN proposes to utilize its currently licensed parameters, we believe that channel 10 can be substituted for channel 36 at Norwell as proposed, in compliance with the principal community coverage and technical requirements.

Petition for Reconsideration (Petition) has been filed in the Commission's proceeding by On behalf of Garmin International, Inc.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) proposes to modify the Commission's rules to implement certain spectrum allocation decisions from the International Telecommunication Union's World Radiocommunication Conference's 2019 Final Acts concerning portions of the radio spectrum between 495 kHz and 50.9 GHz, make other allocation changes, and make related updates to our service rules in this frequency range. These proposals are designed to harmonize our spectrum allocations with and conform our rules to the World Radiocommunication's 2019 Final Acts to the extent that doing so would better meet domestic requirements.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes to modernize its telecommunications relay services (TRS) rules and seeks comment on phasing out the mandatory status of traditional TTY-based relay services (TTY Relay) under state TRS programs; recognizing additional forms of internet-based TRS, such as internet Protocol Speech-to-Speech (IP STS) and real-time text (RTT)-based relay as compensable forms of TRS; establishing a temporary, national certification process for analog relay providers and user registration and verification requirements; and updating or eliminating obsolete rules to all forms of TRS. Through these proposals, the Commission aims to align TRS with today's communications landscape, better serve the needs of relay users, ensure the continued availability of TRS through the transition from legacy communications network, to modern, IP-based networks, and continue to protect the integrity of the TRS program through the prevention of waste, fraud, and abuse.

In this document, the Space Bureau seeks to refresh the record on proposed rules to permit the use of additional frequency bands for non-geostationary orbit ("NGSO") Fixed Satellite Service ("FSS") satellites to communicate with Earth Stations in Motion ("ESIMs").

In the document, the Space Bureau extends the comment and reply comment deadlines for the Facilitating More Intensive Use of Upper Microwave Spectrum Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in SB Docket No. 25-305, FCC 25-70, that was released on October 29, 2025 and published in the Federal Register on December 3, 2025.

Petition for Reconsideration (Petition) has been filed in the Commission's proceeding by Jill Stone on behalf of American e-Rate Solutions, LLC.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks additional comment and data from stakeholders on adopting permanent audio and video IPCS rate caps and on whether and how the Commission should refine its IPCS data collections going forward to provide the data needed to ensure rate caps are just and reasonable and fairly compensate IPCS providers. It also seeks comment on how and when the Commission should structure a permanent rate additive to account for the recovery of correctional facility costs incurred in making IPCS available, including an additive that potentially varies by facility type and size. Finally, it proposes to retain the prohibition on ancillary service charges previously adopted by the Commission and seeks further comment on this proposal. In the alternative, it seeks comment on a request to reinstate automated payment fees and third-party financial transaction fees as permissible ancillary service charges.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) proposes steps to improve the availability and accuracy of caller identification information transmitted to consumers to enable them to better understand who is calling and decide whether to answer calls. Specifically, the Commission proposes to enhance the effectiveness of STIR/SHAKEN by requiring terminating providers to transmit verified caller name or other caller identity information for presentation on a consumer's handset whenever they transmit an indication that a call has received an A-level attestation. It also seeks comment on requiring providers to use Rich Call Data (RCD) to transmit verified caller name on IP networks, whether to permit or require use of other solutions, and an alternative option to require that providers implement RCD in their IP networks for all calls. The Commission further proposes to require voice service providers to implement measures to ensure that consumers know which calls originate from outside of the United States and to prohibit spoofing of United States telephone numbers for calls that originate from outside of the United States. Finally, the Commission seeks comment on whether some of its calling-related rules can be simplified, streamlined, or eliminated, perhaps because they are outdated or have not been enforced for a substantial amount of time.

In this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) seeks comment on proposed rule changes that would expand the ecosystem for next generation wireless services in the 3.7-4.2 GHz band (C-band) by making as much as 180, and at least 100, megahertz of the 3.98-4.2 GHz band (Upper C-band) available for terrestrial wireless flexible use via a system of competitive bidding. This action would be in furtherance of Congress' direction in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBB Act) to "complet[e] a system of competitive bidding not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of this Act for not less than 100 megahertz in the band between 3.98 gigahertz and 4.2 gigahertz." The NPRM seeks comment on options for reconfiguring the Upper C-band in the contiguous United States ranging from 180 megahertz (3.98-4.16 GHz) to the congressionally mandated minimum of 100 megahertz (3.98-4.08 GHz) for terrestrial wireless use. The NPRM seeks comment on how much Upper C- band spectrum--beyond the minimum 100 megahertz required by the OBBB Act--could be repurposed by incumbent fixed satellite service (FSS) space station operators and on how the transition could be effectuated if their existing customers relocate out of the C-band. Under any of the reconfiguration options under consideration, the NPRM's baseline proposition is to apply the existing 3.7 GHz Service rules (applicable in the Lower C-band from 3.7-3.98 GHz) to any newly authorized terrestrial wireless operations. Any other rules and requirements, including those relating to the transition process, would be modeled to the greatest extent possible on those that applied to the Lower C-band transition. The NPRM also seeks comment on a range of issues associated with repurposing some portion of the Upper C-band, including: reallocation of the 4.0-4.2 GHz band; competitive bidding procedures for an eventual auction; licensing, operating, and technical rules for any new wireless services;

In the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or we) proposes to overhaul and modernize the Commission's space and earth station licensing process to help "ensure that new space-based industries, space exploration capabilities, and cutting-edge defense systems are pioneered in America rather than by our adversaries." In particular, the NPRM proposes to develop a "licensing assembly line" designed so applications can be routed along different paths and segmented for review based on specific aspects of a request. This new process would set the stage for ongoing efficiency gains and would provide greater predictability and flexibility for applicants. In this way, we expect--like actual assembly lines--that the space review processes can be dramatically accelerated while improving the quality of the Commission's space licensing work.
