Chris filed the petition (attached) on 1/22/19 (in a timely manner) to a closed FCC.

I believe that the Board approved Chris' continuing for two urgent items: 1) Spectrum Planning Docket Comments due January 22. (NTIA Docket 181130999-8999-01) and 2) Orbital Debris NPRM and Order on Reconsideration, (Docket 18-313) due very shortly.

I have discussed the later with Atty Siddall, and expect an engagement letter from him this week. Once we have him under contract, if the timing permits, I expect that he would review and file comments based on Chris' work.

Hello ALL -

          Has the EC approved the wording and file comments on

NTIA Docket 181130999-8999-01 ?       According to the Fed Register

https://www.ntia.doc.gov/files/ntia/publications/2018-27690_3.pdf

Comments were due yesterday. In the past we (the Board) have received

a copy of the Comments when filed. This is especially important to

the Amateur Community and the ARRL since a large portion of

amateur spectrum is shared with federal users who are authorized

by the NTIA.

          Perhaps someone on the EC could comment -
