(1)IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT Intelligent Transportation Society of America and the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, Petitioners, v. FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION and THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,. ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ). Case No.. Respondents. NOTICE OF APPEAL Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. §§ 402(b) and (c), 5 U.S.C. § 706, and Rule 15(a) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, Petitioners Intelligent Transportation Society of America (“ITS America”) and the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (“AASHTO”) hereby appeal the order of the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC” or “Commission”) captioned as follows: Use of the 5.850-5.925 GHz Band, First Report and Order, Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, and Order of Proposed Modification, FCC 20-164, ET Docket No. 19-138 (rel. Nov. 20, 2020) (“Order”). The Order was published in the Federal Register on May 3, 2021. 86 Fed. Reg. 23281. A copy of the Order is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Contemporaneously with this Notice of Appeal, 1.

(2) Petitioners are filing a Petition for Review pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 402(a) and §§ 2342(1) and 2344, which vests jurisdiction in courts of appeal over FCC orders not subject to Section 402(b). Because this Court has jurisdiction to hear Petitioners’ claims pursuant to § 402(b), § 402(a), or some combination of the two, Petitioners respectfully request that the Court consolidate these appeals into one proceeding. The Commission’s Order effects a sweeping change to a 75-MHz band of radiofrequency spectrum that is critical to automotive safety and the future of transportation. First allocated in 1999 pursuant to a statutory directive in the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century, the band at 5.850-5.925 GHz (the “5.9 GHz Band” or “Safety Band”) has long been reserved for intelligent transportation systems (“ITS”) designed to enhance roadway safety and efficiency by enabling vehicles to communicate with each other, roadway infrastructure, and other devices in the proximity of moving vehicles. Pursuant to its statutory responsibilities as set forth in the Act, the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) has played a significant role in the testing, development, and deployment of technologies using this frequency band, which initially focused on a technology called dedicated short range communications (“DSRC”). More recently, automotive safety stakeholders have also developed a new ITS technology, cellular vehicle-to-everything (“C-V2X”) as an alternative or complement to DSRC, and began deploying this technology on an experimental basis. 2.

(3) In the Order, the Commission seriously undermined all of the technological progress and investment in the Safety Band by reallocating the majority of the band for unlicensed Wi-Fi operations wholly unrelated to automotive safety. Specifically, the Commission ignored the recommendations of the federal DOT, automotive safety professionals, automobile manufacturers, and state highway officials and reallocated the lower 45 MHz of the band – 60 percent of the spectrum – for unlicensed use. The Commission retained the remaining 30 MHz at the top of the band for ITS, but decided to sunset DSRC and “choos[e] C-V2X as the sole ITS connected vehicle technology.” Order ¶¶ 2, 105, 110. The Order also initiated a blanket modification of all DSRC licenses consistent with the reallocation. Id. ¶ 204. The Commission’s actions—taken over DOT’s vigorous objection—are in excess of the statutory authority granted to the FCC. The FCC’s decision to reallocate 45 MHz of the 5.9 GHz band for use unrelated to automotive safety curtails the usefulness of the Safety Band, undercuts the goals of the Congressionally-established ITS program, and directly contravenes the recommendations of the agency responsible for designing and overseeing the ITS program. As a result, the Order exceeds the Commission’s authority to allocate spectrum and grant radiofrequency licenses under the Communications Act, as that authority has been limited by Congress’s decision to establish a robust ITS 3.

(4) program and delegate authority to manage that program exclusively to DOT. By reducing the size of the band by 60 percent and eliminating the ability to use DSRC technologies in the band entirely, the Commission has violated either Section 312 or Section 316 of the Communications Act, as it has either effectively revoked or at a minimum fundamentally changed the licenses held by incumbent DSRC licensees. 47 U.S.C. §§ 312, 316. And because the FCC failed to properly evaluate record evidence related to the safety-related impacts of reallocation and the interference concerns posed by Wi-Fi devices, the Order is unlawfully arbitrary and capricious. 5 U.S.C. § 706(2)(A). Petitioners seek review of the Commission’s decision to reallocate the lower 45 MHz of the band and to modify incumbent licenses so as to prohibit the use of that spectrum. Petitioners ask this Court to vacate those portions of the Order while leaving intact the Commission’s decision to enable entities to obtain licenses to operate C-V2X technologies in the upper 30 MHz of the band, which constitutes a reasonable exercise of the FCC’s authority. This Court has jurisdiction to hear these claims under Section 402 of the Communications Act. 47 U.S.C. § 402. Section 402(b) grants this Court exclusive jurisdiction to hear appeals of certain Commission licensing decisions, including “[b]y the holder of any construction permit or station license which has been modified or revoked[.]” Id. § 402(b)(5). The Court also has jurisdiction to hear 4.

(5) under Section 402(b) “FCC decisions which involve issues ‘ancillary’” to licensing decisions enumerated in the statute. See, e.g., N. Am. Cath. Educ. Programming Found., Inc. v. FCC, 437 F.3d 1206, 1209 (D.C. Cir. 2006). Section 402(a), through incorporation of the Hobbs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2341 et seq., grants exclusive jurisdiction to the federal court of appeals in which the petition for review is filed. This jurisdiction extends to challenges to “all final orders of the Federal Communications Commission” that are not reviewable under Section 402(b). Id. § 2342(1). The Order at issue here has both rulemaking elements and license modifications, and thus Petitioners’ claims collectively appear to invoke the Court’s jurisdiction under both Section 402(a) and Section 402(b). Because this Court has jurisdiction “by the one procedural route or the other,” Cellco P’ship v. FCC, 700 F.3d 534, 541 (D.C. Cir. 2012), the Court “need not decide which of these is the proper vehicle” and can simply exercise jurisdiction over the appeal as a whole. PSSI Global Services, LLC v. Federal Communications Commission, 983 F.3d 1, 7 (2020). ITS America respectfully requests that the Court consolidate the proceedings initiated by this Notice of Appeal and the corresponding Petition. Petitioners have associational standing to bring these claims, as both organizations’ members include state highway and transportation departments, and ITS America’s members further include automakers and other automotive safety 5.

(6) stakeholders. Petitioners’ members include incumbent DSRC licensees, entities operating DSRC technologies pursuant to FCC regulations, and entities with interests in deploying C-V2X or other V2X technologies. Those members have relied on the designation of the 5.9 GHz band as an automotive safety band in developing technologies and making investments in connected vehicle applications. Accordingly, Petitioners’ members are persons “aggrieved” for purposes of Section 402(a) and the Hobbs Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2344, and are “holder[s] of . . . station license[s] which ha[ve] been modified or revoked by the Commission” for purposes of Section 402(b), 47 U.S.C. § 402(b)(5). As organizations dedicated to advocating for their interests, Petitioners have standing to represent those members in this proceeding. See, e.g., Nat’l Treasury Emps. Union v. U.S. Merit Sys. Prot. Bd., 743 F.2d 895, 910 (D.C. Cir. 1984). ITS America and AASHTO both participated in the rulemaking proceeding from which the Order was adopted. See 47 U.S.C. § 405(a). This Notice of Appeal is timely, as the Order was published in the Federal Register on May 3, 2021. See 47 U.S.C. § 402(c) (establishing a 30-day deadline for filing petitions for review following public notice of a licensing decision); PSSI, 983 F.3d at 7 (rejecting FCC’s argument that “public notice” should be triggered by the release date of a licensing decision, where the order at issue. 6.

(7) “modified thousands of earth station licenses at once”). Venue is proper pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 402(b). Respectfully Submitted,. /s/ Joshua S. Turner Joshua S. Turner Scott D. Delacourt Sara M.
