Report No. WT 98-40        WIRELESS TELECOM ACTION          November 6, 1998
                                
      ARIZONA (REGION 3) PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE RECEIVES 
APPROVAL FOR MINOR AMENDMENT TO ITS REGIONAL PUBLIC SAFETY PLAN (PR
                       DOCKET NO. 91-143)

By this notice, the minor amendment to the Region 3 Public Safety Radio Plan (Region 3 Plan) that  
proposes to revise the current channel allotments for radio frequencies in the 821-824/866-869 MHz bands
within the state of Arizona is approved.  The amendment assigns certain frequencies to new users in Region
3.  The amendment also includes minor non-frequency assignment changes or corrections to the plan.  

In accordance with the Public Safety National Plan, each region is responsible for planning its use of the
public safety radio frequency spectrum in the 821-824-866-869 MHz bands.   The Region 3 Plan was
originally adopted by the Commission on September 4, 1991, and was subsequently revised by letter on
May 24, 1995.  On August 28, 1998, the Commission issued a Public Notice (Report No. WT 98-28)
inviting interested parties to file comments regarding a proposed amendment to the Region 3 Plan that was
filed with the Commission on June 12, 1998.  

We have reviewed the Region 3 request.  The amendment is a minor change to the Region 3 Plan and
includes concurrences from each of the adjacent Regions 5, 7, 27, 29, and 41.  Further, we have received
no comments in response to the Public Notice of August 28, 1998, referenced above.  The amendment,
is therefore, accepted and approved as submitted.  The Secretary's office will place the amended Region
3 Plan in the official docket file where it will remain available to the public.

Questions regarding this public notice may be directed to Joy Alford, Wireless Telecommunications
Bureau (202) 418-0694.
