I have the FCC document linked from my website;

Look for 600m - FCC announcement

Dated March 29, 2017 the FCC approves ham radio use at 472-479 KHz
(630m) though not quite final for ham use.
5w EIRP approved which is just about what one gets with reasonable
antenna fed with 100w.  Hams will have to register with a power
utility agency to ensure no mutual interference with PLC usage by
utilities.  Ham radio will be a secondary user.

I expect ARRL to make a similar announcement, soon.

I am part of the ARRL Experimental Group who have been licensed as
experimental stations for about four years on 600/630m.
