You lost me there - if a public safety radio org (or anyone else for that
matter) files a formal complaint with the FCC, does the FCC bill the
complainant for any subsequent investigation and/or enforcement expenses?

The FCC's likely to look to the complaining, and responding, parties
to present evidence and research and expert testimony about the issue,
I believe. The big communications companies can afford to throw large
amounts of money at their side of the issue, churning up large amounts
of paperwork, studies, and so forth. In order to hope to win the
case, the public-safety organization would have to try to refute these
studies and reports-from-experts with their own. I suspect it'd run
into a lot of money.
