SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By this Public Notice, the Commission 
announces that the Philadelphia Region 28 Planning Update Committee 
proposal to amend the Philadelphia Public Safety Regional Plan (Region 
28 Plan) revising the current channel allotments for radio frequencies 
in the 821-824/866-869 MHz bands within the Philadelphia area is 
approved. On March 17, 1998, we received a request from the 
Philadelphia Region 28 Planning Update Committee proposing to amend the 
Region 28 Plan, which was adopted by the Commission on February 2, 
1990,1 and subsequently revised on December 16, 
1993.2 In accordance with the Public Safety National Plan, 
Region 28 is responsible for planning public safety radio frequency 
spectrum use in the 821-824/866-869 MHz bands within eastern 
Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and Delaware.3 We have 
reviewed the Region 28 request and find that the amendment furthers 
this goal. The amendment is considered a minor amendment and includes 
concurrences from each of the adjacent Regions 8, 20, 30, 36, and 55. 
The amendment is, therefore, approved as submitted.
