The National Regional Planning Council (NRPC) has asked the FCC to extend from June 2 to Dec. 31, 2015, the deadline for 700 megahertz band regional planning committees to modify their regional plans.

“Due to the reassignment by the Commission of former 700 MHz Reserve Channels to General Use Channels for use as both Nationwide Deployable 700 MHz System channels and other General Use within each region, the requirement for the 700 MHz Regional Planning Committees to modify their regional plans within six (6) months of the publication of the Report and Order has been found to be an insufficient amount of time given the information each region must have to modify its 700 MHz plan,” NRPC said in a March 30 filing in PS docket 13-87.
