    On August 2, 2022, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
    signed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on radiofrequency
    spectrum coordination. The new MOU has been anticipated since the
    announcement of the Spectrum Coordination Initiative between the two
    agencies in February of this year. Established under the leadership of
    FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel and NTIA Administrator and
    Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information
    Alan Davidson, the Spectrum Coordination Initiative is intended to
    "strengthen the processes for decision making and information sharing
    and to work cooperatively to resolve spectrum policy issues." With
    respect to the MOU in particular, the objective was to "update the
    nearly twenty-year-old Memorandum of Understanding between the
    agencies to address gaps in government coordination and to better
    reflect today's spectrum opportunities and challenges."
