Tribe Asks to Use 2.5 GHz Channels on Emergency Basis

Crow Creek Sioux Tribe asked the FCC for 60-day special temporary authority to use three 2.5 GHz channels for broadband on an emergency basis. “We have a current application in place,” said the South Dakota-based tribe Monday. “It is critical to connect the internet for vital services and information required for the tribe to continue their operations as we work to continue to slow the spread of COVID-19.”
