SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The full text of the Public Notice is as
follows: By this Public Notice, the Commission announces that the New
England Area (Region 19) Radio Planning Committee's proposal to amend
the Region 19 Public Safety Regional Plan is approved. This action
which revises the current channel allotments for radio frequencies in
the 821-824/866-869 MHz bands within the New England area, reflects
changes made as a result of its fourth window application process. In
accordance with the National Public Safety Plan, each region is
responsible for the operation and management of the mutual aid
channels. The Region 19 Plan was originally adopted by the Commission
on April 26, 1990. The Region 19 Plan was subsequently revised by
letter on February 28, 1995 and October 30, 1996. On October 30, 1998,
the Commission issued a Public Notice (Report No. WT 98-37) inviting
interested parties to file comments regarding a proposed amendment to
the Region 19 Plan that was filed with the Commission on September 14,
1998. We have reviewed the Region 19 request. This action is a minor
change to the Region 19 Plan. Further, we have received no comments in
response to the Public Notice of October 30, 1998. This action is
therefore, accepted and approved as submitted. The Secretary's office
will place the amended Region 19 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. The original Region 19 Public Safety Plan, is
