Spectrum Coordination Act
The Spectrum Coordination Act (HR 1341) requires the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to improve coordination when managing radio spectrum, directly affecting federal agencies that rely on spectrum for operations (like military, emergency services, and scientific uses). It mandates that NTIA publicly share details about spectrum actions - including impacted federal entities and any technical or policy concerns raised - before FCC decisions. The FCC must also publish an interagency summary with final rules, explaining how concerns were addressed. The bill updates the existing FCC-NTIA coordination agreement every three to four years to reflect technological changes, ensuring federal input is systematically considered in spectrum management.
