Sept. 27, 2018) (“Order”). The Order was published in the Federal Register on October 15, 2018. See 83 Fed. Reg. 51,867 (Oct. 15, 2018). A copy of the Order is attached hereto as Appendix 1. Appellate Case: 18-9563 Document: 010110073710 Date Filed: 10/25/2018 Page: 2 Venue is proper under 28 U.S.C. § 2343 because Sprint Corporation’s corporate headquarters are located in Overland Park, Kansas. In the Order, the Commission addressed local regulatory barriers and streamlined the wireless infrastructure siting review process to facilitate deployment of next-generation facilities, and in particular, Small Wireless Facilities, which are smaller than traditional wireless towers. Among other things, the Order addressed “‘shot clocks’ governing the review of wireless infrastructure deployments.” Order ¶ 13. Sprint actively participated in the FCC proceeding. See, e.g., Comments of Sprint Corporation, WT Docket No. 17-79 and WC Docket No. 17-84 (filed June 15, 2017); Letter from Keith C. Buell, Senior Counsel, Sprint Corporation, to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, WT Docket No. 17-79 (filed Sept. 24, 2018); Letter from Keith C. Buell, Senior Counsel, Sprint Corporation, to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, WT Docket No. 17-79 (filed June 18, 2018); Letter from Keith C. Buell, Senior Counsel, Sprint Corporation, to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, WT Docket No. 17-79 (filed May 17, 2018). As a carrier engaged in deploying the Small Wireless Facilities addressed in the Order, Sprint is directly affected by the outcome of the Order. Sprint now seeks relief from certain portions of the Order which violate the 2 Appellate Case: 18-9563 Document: 010110073710 Date Filed: 10/25/2018 Page: 3 Administrative Procedure Act; are arbitrary, capricious, and an abuse of discretion; violate other federal laws including, but not limited to, the Communications Act of 1934 (as amended), the Commission’s regulations, and the Constitution; and are otherwise contrary to the law. Specifically, the Order declines to adopt a “deemed granted” remedy when siting authorities fail to act on siting applications within the shot clock timeframes established by the Commission. See Order ¶ 130 Sprint respectfully requests that this Court set aside those portions of the Order as unlawful and grant further appropriate relief.
