APCO SUPPORTS FCC ORDER ON NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS
January 8, 2007, Washington, D.C. -
In a statement today the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International President Wanda McCarley said, “APCO is very pleased with today’s FCC order allowing public safety agencies to share information among each other regarding their 800 MHz rebanding agreements with Sprint Nextel.”
The order states, “We determine that allowing public safety licensees to disclose information to one another regarding the terms and conditions of their relocation agreements with Sprint will facilitate the rebanding process and is necessary to the conduct of good faith negotiations as required by the Commission.” Allowing for such disclosure will facilitate agreements that are necessary to address dangerous interference that affects the nation’s public safety radio systems.
