FCC Private Radio Bureau Chief Ralph Haller has been named to head a
Commission task force on personal communications services (PCS).

The Commission said that the task force would provide "a focal point
for all of the PCS issues currently before" it.  The task force
would work with all of the FCC's bureaus and offices that are
involved in PCS issues, and would be responsible "for assuring
consistency between policies and rules for narrow-band and wide-band
PCS."

FCC Chairman Reed Hundt said that "I am confident that under the
leadership of Ralph Haller, the PCS task force will lead the
Commission in the timely development of a comprehensive regulatory
framework for PCS."

Other members of the task force include Tom Stanley, Chief Engineer;
Robert Pepper, Chief, Office of Plans and Policy; Donald Gips,
Deputy Chief, Office of Plans and Policy; and Michael Katz, Chief
Economist.
