Region 35 Regional Planning Committee
Region 35 encompasses the entire state of Oregon. Currently Region 35 has two Regional Planning Committees for public safety spectrum bands; one for the 800 MHz band, and a second for the 700 MHz band.
Our Mission800 MHz - In 1987, the FCC developed a National Plan for Public Safety Radio Services that set national guidelines for use of the 800 MHz spectrum while allowing regional public safety planning committees to develop regional plans tailored to their areas own particular communications needs. 700 MHz - In the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, Congress directed the FCC to reallocate spectrum in the 700 MHz band to commercial and public safety services from its previous exclusive use for television broadcasting service on channels 60-69. The Regional Planning Committee (RPC) held its first planning meeting on January 16, 2002. The RPC's immediate job is to develop a "plan" for the public safety 700 MHz frequencies. Important News The 700 MHz Committee has completed a Draft Plan! Our next meeting will focus on review and approval of a Frequency Allocation Plan for the region. Two plans have been submitted. One, produced by the State of Oregon in July, 2009 and a new one, produced by the Metro Region in December 2009. These will be discussed, and the Committee will vote to adopt a Frequency Allocation Plan at our next meeting.
