NextNav Says FCC Should Ignore Opposition, Move Ahead on Rulemaking
Several industry groups have cited harmful interference risks and public safety concerns.
WASHINGTON, April 6, 2026 – The effort to develop an Earth-based version of satellite-based GPS service continues as a major policy battle at the Federal Communications Commission.
Geolocation company NextNav told the FCC to ignore the “laundry list” of opposition on its controversial terrestrial GPS project.
NextNav Vice President of Regulatory Affairs Renee Gregory submitted a letter to the FCC on March 31, urging the agency to dismiss arguments opposing its project and move forward with a rulemaking process that would benefit the company.
