GAO Gives NTIA a To-Do List on Spectrum Management

On July 22, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) released a report urging NTIA to implement a series of policy recommendations that GAO previously made regarding spectrum management. GAO's report lists those recommendations, one of which is that NTIA and the FCC update their memorandum of understanding (MOU) regarding their respective roles and coordination on spectrum policy issues.
