| 2025-16375 | Expediting Initial Processing of Satellite and Earth Station Applications; Space Innovation | Rule | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or we) adopts a Second Report and Order with variety measures to expedite space and earth station approvals, including by eliminating the requirement to file certain license modification applications and eliminating outdated rules. In particular, the Second Report and Order provides regulatory certainty for, and eliminates burdens on, the nascent Ground-Station-as-a-Service industry, where a neutral host establishes connectivity to multiple satellite systems in space. As licensing activity before the Commission increases in complexity and number, concrete measures to expedite earth and space station applications will support U.S. leadership in the growing space economy. Accordingly, adoption of these concrete measures to expedite the processing of applications for authority to operate space and earth stations under part 25 of the Commission's rules would be vital to supporting U.S. leadership in the growing space economy. | 2025-08-27 | 2025 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/08/27/2025-16375/expediting-initial-processing-of-satellite-and-earth-station-applications-space-innovation | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2025-08-27/pdf/2025-16375.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission or we) adopts a Second Report and Order with variety measures to expedite space and earth station approvals, including by eliminating the requirement to file certain license... |
