FCC Eliminates Cellular Service Rules

The Federal Communications Commission eliminated rules applicable to the Cellular Service and other Part 22 licensees. The action:

• Modernizes record-keeping rules by deleting rules requiring licensees to retain hard copies of station authorizations and other station records.
• Eliminates the requirement for licensees to maintain station control points and personnel on duty at those control points.
• Eliminates duplicative rules pertaining to operation of mobile stations, operational control of mobile devices, and equal opportunity regulations.
