The FCC's new Nationwide Programmatic Agreement, governing the environmental and historic preservation aspects of communications facility siting, will "go live" in early March. Your organization must comply with the new rules, but questions remain:
- The Commission has said they need more staff to manage the new agreement's terms; are they in place?
- The standard forms that promise to ease implementation of the new rules are still under OMB review; will they be ready?
- The new agreement contains complex new tribal consultation and expert certification requirements; can you meet them?
- How can you avoid time-consuming snags? What can you do when they happen?
Perkins Coie's John Clark, Executive Editor of Pike & Fischer's Communications Environmental & Land Use Law Report (CELULR) and Dr. Amos Loveday, Cultural Resource Specialist in the FCC's Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, led an informative, transition-easing run of through the new agreement's substantive requirements and procedural mechanisms. An interactive Q&A followed.
