## Abstract

The Federal Communications Commission adopts a revised band plan for the Public Safety 700 MHz band, which is twenty-four megahertz of spectrum allocated for public safety services at 764-776 MHz and 794-806 MHz ("the 700 MHz band"). This new plan represents an improved layout and will promote better assignment and operational possibilities for the public safety community. The Commission also adopts technical criteria to protect certain global navigation satellite systems (GNSS). The agency designates channels for mutual aid purposes in the public safety bands below 512 MHz to improve interoperability capabilities for public safety entities that operate in these existing bands.
