Standard Fees to Speed Up Wireless Infrastructure Deployment on Federal Property.

This act establishes a common fee schedule for installing antennas and communications equipment on Federal Government-owned buildings and property. The goal is to remove bureaucratic hurdles and accelerate the deployment of wireless infrastructure, resulting in faster access to broadband internet and improved mobile coverage for citizens. These fees must be based on actual administrative costs and can be reduced if they contribute to expanding coverage.
Key points
Establishment of a common, standard fee schedule for placing communication facilities on federal properties.
Accelerating the application review process, which is expected to reduce waiting times for better mobile and broadband coverage.
Fees charged to telecommunications companies must cover the government's administrative costs and can be adjusted to promote public access to networks.
