The contact list includes individuals both within the FCC and throughout the government. The list is a cornerstone of the FCC’s efforts to facilitate communication and coordination between and among inter- agency staff members with responsibilities in these crucial areas. The liaison program is part of a comprehensive Environmental and Historic Preservation Action Plan announced by FCC Chairman Michael K. Powell on May 1. The Action Plan is the agency’s first comprehensive initiative to improve the FCC’s ability to protect valuable historic preservation and environmental resources, while at the same time accelerating the process of deploying necessary communications infrastructure. The Chairman called the liaison program “an important step towards facilitating clear and more efficient communication within government on environmental and historic preservation matters affecting the communications industry and will serve as a valuable resource for industry and tribes.” The attached list also can be located on the FCC’s web page at: http:// wireless. fcc. gov/ siting/. 1 ENVIRONMENTAL, HISTORIC PRESERVATION & TRIBAL/ ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE CONTACTS FOR SELECT FEDERAL AGENCIES Agency/ Subdivisi on NEP A 1 NHP A 2 Triba l/ Envir n.
