Specifically, the Commission adopts technical and operational rules governing devices using C-V2X-based technology, eliminates the DSRC requirement for communications zone designations, finalizes the timeline for sunsetting the use of DSRC-based technology, addresses the issue of additional spectrum allocations for ITS use, addresses the issue of reimbursing the transition costs of DSRC incumbents, and encourages the development of industry standards.

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) adopts a Second Report and Order and Order on Reconsideration (Second R&O) on processing, licensing, and service rules that will allow voluntary, limited use of FM booster stations to originate content on a permanent basis.

The rule changes are needed to expand the potential uses of FM booster stations, which previously could not originate programming. The intended effect is to allow radio broadcasters to provide more relevant localized programming and information to different zones within their service areas.
