By this Order, we extend the time for filing reply comments in the abovecaptioned proceeding to the close of business on December 19, 1996.  X84 "d2. On April 10, 1996, the Commission released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in  xVthis proceeding that invited interested parties to comment no later than September 20, 1996, and  X 4 xto reply to filings by other parties no later than October 18, 1996. {I S' "#&J\  P6Qu&P#эThe Development of Operational, Technical, and Spectrum Requirements for Meeting Federal,  x^State and Local Public Safety Agency Communication Requirements Through the Year 2010, WT Docket  S3'No. 9686, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 11 FCC Rcd 12460 (1996). On September 6, 1996, we  xApartially granted a request by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for an extension of the  xcomment period, extending the due date for comments until October 21, 1996, and for reply  X4comments until December 3, 1996.q{I S' "#&J\  P6Qu&P#эThe Development of Operational, Technical and Spectrum Requirements for Meeting Federal,  x^State and Local Public Safety Agency Communication Requirements Through the Year 2010, WT Docket No. 9686, Order, DA 961492 (released Sept. 6, 1996). q   "J3. On November 21, 1996, the Industrial Telecommunications Association, Inc., the  xAmerican Petroleum Institute, and the Association of American Railroads (ITA, API, and AAR)  Xi4 xrequested a further extension of the reply comment date until December 19, 1996.ih{I S&' "#&J\  P6Qu&P#эThe Development of Operational, Technical, and Spectrum Requirements for Meeting Federal,  x^State and Local Public Safety Agency Communication Requirements Through the Year 2010, WT Docket No. 9686, Request for Extension of Time to File Reply Comments (Nov. 21, 1996). ITA, API,  xand AAR assert that the reply comment date should be extended to give parties an opportunity"R =0*0*0*&" to review comments due to be filed in the Wireless Communications Service proceeding (GN  xIDocket No. 96288) on December 4, 1996 and in the Advanced Television Systems proceeding  xZ(MM Docket No. 87268) on November 22, 1996. ITA, API, and AAR assert that the comments  xfiled in these proceedings may affect parties' positions in their Public Safety reply comments.  x"ITA, API, and AAR further assert that the comments filed in the Public Safety proceeding are lengthy and involve issues requiring careful consideration.   X_4 e 4.` ` ITA, API, and AAR contend that views expressed in comments submitted in GN  xDocket No. 96288 may affect the positions parties will take in the Public Safety proceeding,  x}because that docket addresses, among other issues, whether a portion of the spectrum proposed  x+for the Wireless Communications Service should be used to meet the needs of public safety  xproviders, and whether the Commission has sufficient authority to designate frequencies in the  x2.3 GHz band for public safety communications. ITA, API, and AAR also assert that the  x+comments filed in the Advanced Television Systems proceeding may influence the direction  xparties take in their Public Safety reply comments, and that these comments are likely to be voluminous.  Xy4 e 5.` ` Because of the importance of this proceeding, we encourage active participation  xby all interested parties. Moreover, we agree with ITA, API, and AAR that the issues in this  x<proceeding interrelate with issues addressed in GN Docket No. 96288 and in MM Docket No.  x 87268, and that parties may wish to review those comments before responding to comments filed  xin this proceeding. We are therefore persuaded that granting the requested extension of time will  xenhance the quality of the reply comments, and will provide a more complete record for  x"consideration. For these reasons, we conclude that an extension for filing reply comments is in the public interest.  X4 e  6.` ` Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Section 1.46 of the Commission's  xpRules regarding the time for filing comments, 47 C.F.R.  1.46, that the request of the Industrial  xTelecommunications Association, Inc., the American Petroleum Institute, and the Association of  xNAmerican Railroads IS GRANTED, and the time for filing reply comments in the abovecaptioned proceeding is extended to the close of business on December 19, 1996. ` `  hhCFEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION ` `  hhCJohn Cimko ` `  hhCChief, Policy Division ` `  hhCWireless Telecommunications Bureau
