The NPRM seeks comment on a proposal to prohibit all future authorizations 
of communications equipment that has been determined to pose an 
unacceptable risk to U.S. national security, as identified on the Covered 
List published by the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau.

The Commission also seeks comment on whether it should revoke prior 
authorizations for any equipment on the Covered List and, if so, the 
procedures it should use to do so. Finally, with regard to the FCC’s 
competitive bidding rules, the Commission seeks comment on whether to
require applicants who wish to participate in FCC auctions to provide 
additional certifications relating to national security.
