On March 8, 2016 FCC granted a waiver of Section 90.537(a) of the rules to the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of State Police.  Virginia had requested a waiver of the rules which address narrowband trunking requirements so that it may use non-trunked State channels and former reserve channels (now General Use channels) in its existing 700 MHz digital vehicular repeater units (DVRS) of its STARS statewide system.   For additional information, see the FCC decision at the following link https://apps.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-16-251A1.pdf
