it'd probably be a whole kaleidoscopic of agencies that need to give you the thumbs up, not just a single one.
-commercial satellite companies you need to check you're not going to knock out dish for people
-check you're not within any E class airspace, the last airspace class you need ATC clearance to lanuch/fly anything
-whoever operates GPS
-insert list of nations who would freak out if they saw an unidentified civilian missile headed their way and would declare nuclear war on the USA |

"unidentified civilian missile"
that doesn't make much sense. simply an unidentified missile, which is what your rocket would be, unless you have the resources to get your notification of amateur launch through to them. |
