Overview of Key Deliverables and Target Completion Dates Appendix 2. Presidential Memo on Spectrum Policy: Memorandum for the Heads of ExecutiveDepartments and Agencies (2003) Appendix 3. Presidential Determination: Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departmentsand Agencies (2004) Executive Summary In May 2003, the President committed the Administration to the development of a UnitedStates Spectrum Policy that promotes economic prosperity and national security through the 21stcentury. Since then, the Executive Branch has worked to implement the President’s Spectrum PolicyInitiative. In June 2004, the Secretary of Commerce provided the President two reports documentingthe results of a one-year study of spectrum reform. Both reports focused on four specific goalsoutlined by the President. These were to: (a) facilitate a modernized and improved spectrummanagement system; (b) create incentives for more efficient and beneficial use of spectrum andpolicies increasing predictability and certainty for incumbent users; (c) develop policy tools tostreamline the deployment of new services while preserving security and public safety, andencouraging scientific research; and (d) meet critical spectrum needs related to national andhomeland security, critical infrastructure protection, and scientific advancement. In November 2004, the President issued an Executive Memorandum directing that . . . the Secretary of Commerce, in coordination with other relevant agenciesidentified by the Secretary . . . develop a plan for identifying and implementingincentives that promote more efficient and effective use of the spectrum whileprotecting national and homeland security, critical infrastructure, and Governmentservices. Pursuant to the President’s directive, NTIA has developed this plan to expand on existingpolicies that (1) identify and implement incentives that are appropriate to Federal Government users;and (2) address incentives more broadly and develop possible legislative recommendations toincrease the FCC’s incentive authority. I. Incentives for Improving Spectrum Use by Federal Agencies NTIA, in consultation with the federal agencies, will: (1) examine whether user fees wouldencourage greater efficiency of government spectrum use, including methodologies for setting suchfees, and the appropriateness of such fees considering the potential effect on an agency’s missioneffectiveness and on overseas operations; (2) examine other incentives to allow agencies to benefitfrom reducing or eliminating spectrum use; (3) identify options for giving agencies greater flexibilityin managing their frequency assignments, including shared use and trading among federal and non-federal users; (4) identify other incentives for use of more spectrally efficient systems; (5) considerpossible models and methods for estimating the economic value of given portions of the spectrum;(6) examine incentives for agencies willing to increase use of commercial services or technologiesthat result in decreased reliance on spectrum allocated for Federal Government use; and (7) developand support the legislation necessary to implement incentives as appropriate. NTIA has identifiedthe following subtasks to carry out this task: Subtask I-A:Convene Public Forum on Spectrum Incentives.Subtask I-B:Review and Analyze Incentives Used by Other Countries.Subtask I-C:Study Spectrum Valuation.Subtask I-D:Study Federal User Fees as Incentives.Subtask I-E:Develop Alternative Incentive Approaches.Subtask I-F:Examine Different Sharing Models.Subtask I-G:Recommend Actions.
