NTIA, Office of Public Affairs

The U.S. Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) today announced that U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross has appointed 30 outside experts to serve on the Commerce Spectrum Management Advisory Committee (CSMAC). The committee provides advice on a range of spectrum policy and technical issues and is an important forum for developing recommendations aimed at strengthening U.S. global leadership in wireless technology services.

Today, NTIA sent a letter to the Federal Communications Commission ahead of a scheduled Commission vote on a report and order in a proceeding to make more spectrum available for advanced communications services, including 5G and satellite broadband. NTIA applauds the Commission for teeing up action that will help advance important U.S. economic and national security objectives.

Today, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) announced that it is transitioning to NTIA.gov, replacing its NTIA.doc.gov domain. This change will make NTIA’s site consistent with most other Department of Commerce websites.
