See Reorganization of the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, Order, 18 FCC Rcd 25414, 25414 ¶ 2 (2003). 1 Federal Communications Commission DA 06- 1983 2 Montrose, California. For the reasons set forth below, the petitions for reconsideration are granted in part. We also dismiss as moot requests filed by Kay 6 and Mobile Relay Associates (MRA) 7 that the license for Station WPSI886 be modified, and a petition filed by MRA for reconsideration of the grant of an application to assign the license for Station WPSI886 to Kevin R. Nida (Nida). 8 In addition, we delete from Nida’s licenses for Stations WPSI886 and WQAK850, Montrose, California, frequency pairs 471/ 474.7000, 471/ 474.7250, 471/ 474.8500, 471/ 474.8750, 472/ 475.1750, 472/ 475. 2000, 472/ 475.2250, and 472/ 475.7250 MHz; and we direct FM Radio Services LLC (FM Radio) to cease operation on Stations WQCJ919 and WQCL258, Montrose, California, and return the authorizations to the Commission. 2. Background. On March 27, 2001, Samuel Moses (Moses) applied to operate a trunked Private Land Mobile Radio (PLMR) station in Montrose, California, in the Industrial/ Business (I/ B) Pool on frequency pairs 471/ 474. 7000, 471/ 474.7250, 471/ 474. 8500, 471/ 474.8750, 472/ 475.1750, 472/ 475.2000, 472/ 475.2250, 472/ 475.2750, 472/ 475.5500, and 472/ 475.7250 MHz. 9 The United Telecom Council (UTC), an FCC- certified I/ B frequency coordinator, coordinated the frequencies and submitted the application to PSPWD. 10 The application received FCC File No. 0000415681. A second, identical application later appeared in the Commission’s licensing database under FCC File No. 0000423812. On May 14, 2001, PSPWD granted application FCC File No. 0000415681, and issued Moses a license to operate trunked PLMR Station WPSI886 on the requested frequencies. Moses withdrew application FCC File No. 0000423812 on May 26, 2001. 3. On June 11, 2001, Kay requested dismissal or denial— or, if the application was granted before the request was received, reconsideration of the grant— of the application due to potential harmful interference to Kay’s PLMR stations in the Los Angeles area. 11 Kay’s request referenced application FCC File No. 0000423812, but not application FCC File No. 0000415681. On July 24, 2001, PSPWD asked UTC to explain its frequency recommendation for Station WPSI886 in light of the interference issues. 12 On July 31, 2001, UTC replied that additional technical studies revealed that use of the frequencies may cause interference and degradation in service to adjacent channel licensees, and it recommended that PSPWD set aside the grant of the license. 13 On December 18, 2001, PSPWD consented to the assignment of the license for Station WPSI886 from Moses to Thomas K. Kurian (Kurian). 14 6 Petition for License Modification filed by James A. Kay, Jr. (Jan. 14, 2004) (Kay Modification Request). 7 Request to Initiate Modification Proceedings filed by Mobile Relay Associates (Feb. 2, 2004) (MRA Modification Request). 8 Petition for Reconsideration filed by Mobile Relay Associates (June 8, 2005) (MRA Petition). 9 See FCC File No. 0000415681 (Mar. 27, 2001). 10 See FAC No. NV0UU01612. 11 See Letter from Robert J. Keller, Esq., counsel to James Kay, to Thomas J. Sugrue, Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, FCC (June 11, 2001). In addition, On June 8, 2001, Ted S. Henry filed an informal petition requesting that PSPWD set aside the grant of Moses’s application. See Informal Petition filed by Henry Radio (June 8, 2001). 12 See Letter from Mary Shultz, Chief, Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch, Public Safety and Private Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, Federal Communications Commission, to United Telecom Council (July 24, 2001). 13 See Letter from Renee McIlwain, Director of Spectrum Services, United Telecom Council, to Mary Shultz, Chief, Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch, Federal Communications Commission (July 31, 2001). 14 See FCC File No. 0000681221 (Dec. 4, 2001). 2 Federal Communications Commission DA 06- 1983 3 4. In an Order released September 16, 2002, PSPWD, based on UTC’s recommendation, granted Kay’s June 11, 2001, request, set aside the grant of the license for Station WPSI886, dismissed application FCC File No. 0000415681, 15 and instructed Kurian to cease operation of the station. 16 On October 15, 2002, Kurian requested reconsideration of the 2002 Order, arguing, inter alia, that Kay’s reconsideration request was procedurally defective, and that interference studies submitted with Kurian’s petition demonstrated that Station WPSI886 would not cause interference to adjacent channel stations. 17 5. In an Order released January 9, 2004, the Division granted Kurian’s October 15, 2002, petition. It concluded that Kay’s June 11, 2001, reconsideration request was procedurally defective because it sought reconsideration of the grant of application FCC File No. 0000423812 (which had been withdrawn), rather than application FCC File No. 0000415681. 18 The Division determined that setting aside the license was thus inappropriate, so it restored the license for Station WPSI886 to active status. 19 6. On January 14 and February 2, 2004, respectively, Kay 20 and MRA 21 filed requests that that the license for Station WPSI886 be modified pursuant to Section 316 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), 22 by deleting channels that are short- spaced with Kay’s and MRA’s adjacent channel facilities. On January 16 and February 9, 2004, respectively, Kay 23 and RCA 24 requested reconsideration of the Division’s 2004 Order restoring the WPSI886 license to active status. Kay argues that he properly sought reconsideration of the license grant notwithstanding his reference to the incorrect file number, 25 and that the public interest justifies setting aside the authorization for Station WPSI886 because it is likely to cause interference to Kay’s operations in the Los Angeles area. 26 RCA argues that Kay’s June 11, 2001, reconsideration request was procedurally proper, because Moses submitted only one application, though it was assigned two file numbers. 27 7. On June 24, 2004, the Division granted Moses an additional license under Call Sign WQAK850 for the frequencies he requested in application FCC File No. 0000415681. On March 30, 2005, the Division consented to the assignment of the license for Station WPSI886 from Kurian to Moses. 28 8. On March 18, 2005, the Division consented to the partial assignment of the license for 15 See 2002 Order, 17 FCC Rcd at 17138 ¶ 5. 16 See id. at 17138- 39 ¶ 7. 17 See Petition for Reconsideration filed by Thomas K.

On May 4, 2005, the Division consented to the assignment of the licenses for Stations WPSI886 31 and WQAK850 32 from Moses to Nida. On June 8, 2005, MRA requested reconsideration of the Division’s consent to the assignment of the license for Station WPSI886 to Nida, noting that the interference concerns raised by MRA against the license for Station WPSI886 had not been resolved and that the license assignment was subject to the outcome of these issues. 33 10. Discussion. Procedural issues. As an initial matter, we agree with Kay and MRA that the Division erred in the 2004 Order when it concluded that Kay’s June 11, 2001, request was defective merely because it referenced application FCC File No. 0000423812 rather than application FCC File No. 0000415681. 34 As PSPWD concluded in the 2002 Order, “Moses filed one application, which was given two different file numbers.” 35 Kay filed a timely petition for reconsideration of the grant of that application. It should have been clear to the Division that Kay sought reconsideration of the grant of the license for Station WPSI886, regardless of which file number Kay listed in the petition. 36 We therefore reverse the decision in the 2004 Order. That does not end the matter, however, because Kurian raised other objections to Kay’s June 11, 2001, request, which the 2004 Order did not address. We now turn to those issues. 11. First, Kurian argues 37 that the request is defective because Section 1.106( b)( 1) of the Commission’s Rules requires that a petition for reconsideration filed by a person who was not previously a party to the proceeding must “show good reason why it was not possible for him to participate in the earlier stages of the proceeding.” 38 We conclude, however, that the fact that the application was neither placed on public notice (because it was a PLMR application) nor served on Kay constitutes a sufficient explanation for Kay’s lack of earlier participation. 39 29 See FCC File No. 0002075529 (Mar. 11, 2005). 30 See FCC File No. 0002084666 (Mar. 14, 2005). 31 See FCC File No. 0002134475 (Apr. 25, 2005). 32 See FCC File No. 0002134486 (Apr. 25, 2005). 33 See MRA Petition at 2- 3. 34 See Kay PFR at 1- 5; RCA PFR at 3- 5. 35 See 2002 Order, 17 FCC Rcd at 17138 ¶ 6. 36 See, e. g., Alert Cable TV of North Carolina, Inc., d/ b/ a Time Warner Cable, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 18 FCC Rcd 12848, 12848 n. 3 (MB PD 2003) (setting aside the dismissal of a petition for the petitioner’s failure to respond to a Commission information request after it was determined that the petitioner had responded to the information request, but had submitted it under the wrong case number); Patrick Shannon, Esq., Letter, 18 FCC Rcd 11552 (WTB AIAD 2003) (granting a waiver of the upfront payment deadline with respect to a payment that was submitted timely but did not reach the Commission before the deadline because the wire transfer listed an incorrect Beneficiary Number). 37 See Kurian Kay Opposition at 2, 5; Kurian RCA Opposition at 2, 4. 38 47 C.

Next, Kurian asserts 40 that the request does not meet the requirement in Section 1.106( e) that a petition for reconsideration “based on a claim of electrical interference . . . be accompanied by an affidavit of a qualified radio engineer.” 41 While the failure to file such an affidavit can be grounds for dismissal, 42 we conclude that any such defect was cured when PSPWD obtained an engineering opinion from UTC, which satisfied the purpose of the requirement. 43 Consequently, the absence of an affidavit did not require dismissal of Kay’s request. 13. In addition, Kurian contends 44 that PSPWD was barred from granting Kay’s June 11, 2001, request because it did not act within ninety days, as required by Section 405( a) of the Act. 45 The Commission has previously rejected this argument, 46 and Kurian cites no authority to the contrary. He also argues 47 that PSPWD could not order him to cease operation of Station WPSI886 without affording him a revocation hearing pursuant Section 312 of the Act. 48 Again, we disagree. The procedural requirements associated with a Section 312 revocation are not germane to the grant of a timely petition for reconsideration. 49 14. Interference issues. Stations WPSI886, WQAK850, WQCJ919, and WQCL258 are authorized to operate on 12.5 kHz “offset” channels. In 1997, the Commission directed the certified frequency coordinators for the PLMR Services to reach a consensus on the applicable coordination procedures for the 12.5 kHz “offset” channels. 50 That consensus is embodied in the Land Mobile Communications Council (LMCC) procedures for evaluating adjacent channel interference in the 470- 512 MHz band using the interference criteria of TIA/ EIA/ TSB- 88 (TSB- 88). 51 The LMCC Consensus provides that an application shall not be certified if an incumbent or the applicant has unacceptable 40 See Kurian Kay Opposition at 2, 5- 6; Kurian RCA Opposition at 3, 4. 41 47 C.

As noted above, UTC’s technical studies concluded that use of the frequencies assigned to Station WPSI886 could cause unacceptable interference and degradation in service to adjacent channel licensees, while the studies submitted by Kurian indicated that no unacceptable interference would result. In light of these conflicting conclusions, Division engineering staff performed an analysis of the frequencies using the interference criteria of TSB- 88. As set forth in the table below, nine of the ten channels initially assigned to Station WPSI886— including eight of the nine channels currently authorized to Nida under Call Signs WPSI886 and WQAK850, and the channel authorized to FM Radio under Call Signs WQCJ919 and WQCL258— are predicted to cause greater than five percent reduction of the calculated service area reliability of incumbent Kay and MRA stations. The results of the analysis, where service area reliability is degraded by more than five percent, are presented in the table below.

We conclude, however, that the channel is predicted to cause and receive less than five percent reduction of the calculated service area reliability. 55 16. Consequently, we grant the Kay and RCA petitions for reconsideration with respect to the frequencies listed in the table, supra. Specifically, we will delete frequency pairs 471/ 474.7000, 471/ 474.7250, 471/ 474.8500, 471/ 474.8750, 472/ 475. 1750, 472/ 475. 2000, 472/ 475.2250, and 472/ 475.7250 MHz from the licenses for Stations WPSI866 and WQAK850, but Nida will continue to be authorized on frequency pair 472/ 475.2750 MHz. We will terminate FM Radio’s licenses for Stations WQCJ919 and WQCL258, which have no assigned channels other than frequency pair 472/ 475.5500 MHz. We direct FM Radio to return the subject authorizations to the Commission. We note that while Nida and FM Radio were free to consummate their assignments, they did so subject to the risk that we would grant one or both of the pending petitions. 56 17. Our decision to grant the petitions for reconsideration, delete the frequencies listed in the table, supra, from the Nida licenses, and terminate the FM Radio licenses secures the relief that Kay and MRA have sought in this proceeding— protection from interference. Consequently, we dismiss as moot Kay and MRA’s requests for modification of the license for Station WPSI886, and MRA’s petition for reconsideration of the grant of the application to assign the license to Nida. 18. Ordering Clauses. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 4( i) and 405 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U. S.
