? Adjourn 800 MHz RPC meeting
Both Region 35 700 and 800 MHz Public Safety RPC meetings are open to the public.  All 
eligible public safety providers in Region 35 may utilize these frequencies.  It is essential that eligible 
public safety agencies in all areas of government, including state, municipality, county, and Native 
American Tribal be represented in order to ensure that each agency’s future spectrum needs are 
considered in the allocation process.  Administrators who are not oriented in the communications field 
should delegate someone with this knowledge to attend, participate, and represent their agency’s needs.
All interested parties wishing to participate in the planning for the use of public safety spectrum 
in the 700 MHz and 800 MHz bands within Region 35 should plan to attend.  For further information,
