Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 1 Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of Amendment of Parts 1, 2, 25, 73, 74, 90, and 97 of the Commission’s Rules to Make Non-Substantive Editorial Revisions to the Table of Frequency Allocations and to Various Service Rules ) ) ) ) ) ) MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER Adopted: March 11, 2008 Released: March 12, 2008 By the Chief, Office of Engineering and Technology and the Managing Director: I. INTRODUCTION 1. By this action, we amend the Commission’s Rules1 to make non-substantive, editorial revisions to the Table of Frequency Allocations (Allocation Table)2 and related rule sections in Part 2,3 to the Part 1 quiet zone rules,4 and to the service rules for satellite communications, international broadcast stations, aural broadcast auxiliary stations, the radiolocation service, and the Amateur Radio Service.5 These amendments to the Allocation Table are being implemented with the concurrence of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA).6 The purpose of this action is to update and clarify the Allocation Table, as well as to remove obsolete and outdated provisions from the Commission’s Rules. In doing so, we can also ensure that the Allocation Table and related rules are 1 The Chief of the Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) is delegated authority to make non-substantive, editorial revisions to Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules and regulations. 47 C.F.R. § 0.241(i).

See letter from Associate Administrator, Office of Spectrum Management, NTIA, to Chief, OET, dated February 28, 2008. NTIA is an agency of the United States Department of Commerce that serves as the President’s principal advisor on telecommunications and information policy issues. NTIA manages Federal use of the radio spectrum and coordinates Federal use with the FCC. NTIA sets forth regulations for Federal use of the radio spectrum within its Manual of Regulations and Procedures for Federal Radio Frequency Management (NTIA Manual). 47 C.F.R. § 2.1. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 2 consistent with the Commission’s decisions in recent rulemaking proceedings.7 This action is not intended to modify or otherwise change any licensee’s underlying legal rights and/or responsibilities.8 II. BACKGROUND 2. The Allocation Table is the Commission’s means of organizing and presenting how the radio spectrum is to be used by one or more radio services under specified conditions. This Table is comprised of the International Table of Frequency Allocations (International Table), the United States Table of Frequency Allocations (U.S. Table), and the FCC Rule Part cross references, and is displayed as a formatted graphical table of six columns that are divided into cells, with each cell representing a specific frequency band.9 References to international footnotes,10 United States (U.S.) footnotes,11 Federal footnotes,12 and non-Federal footnotes13 are shown within the formatted Allocation Table and the text of these footnotes immediately follow that Table. 3. For the allocation of radio frequencies, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has divided the world into three Regions.14 The International Table of Frequency Allocations is shown in Columns 1-3 of the Allocation Table, with each column generally reflecting the corresponding Regional allocation in the ITU Radio Regulations (ITU Allocation Table).15 The International Table is included in the Commission’s Allocation Table for informational purposes only.16 7 This Order does not address any of the actions taken at the 2007 World Radiocommunication Conference, which concluded on November 16, 2007. 8 Because the actions we take are non-substantive in nature, notice and comment are not required under 5 U.S.C. § 553(b). 9 The International Table is described in 47 C.F.R. § 2.104. The U.S. Table and the FCC Rule Part(s) column are described in 47 C.F.R. § 2.105. 10 Any footnote consisting of “5.” followed by one or more digits, e.g., 5.53, denotes an international footnote. Where an international footnote is applicable, without modification, to both Federal and non-Federal operations, the Commission places the footnote in both the Federal Table and the non-Federal Table (columns 4 and 5) and the international footnote is binding on both Federal users and non-Federal licensees. 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(i). 11 Any footnote consisting of the letters “US” followed by one or more digits, e.g., US7, denotes a stipulation affecting both Federal and non-Federal operations. U.S. footnotes appear in both the Federal Table and the non-Federal Table. 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(ii). 12 Any footnote consisting of the letter “G” followed by one or more digits, e.g., G2, denotes a stipulation applicable only to Federal operations. Federal footnotes appear solely in the Federal Table (column 4). 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(iv). 13 Any footnote consisting of the letters “NG” followed by one or more digits, e.g., NG2, denotes a stipulation applicable only to non-Federal operations. Non-Federal footnotes appear solely in the non-Federal Table (column 5). 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(iii). 14 The United States and most of its insular areas are located in Region 2, which is essentially North and South America. Region 1 is generally Europe, Africa, the Middle East, the former Soviet Union, and Mongolia. Region 3 is the rest of Asia and Australasia. See 47 C.F.R. § 2.104(b) for the ITU’s official definitions and map of the Regions. 15 See ITU Radio Regulations, edition of 2004, Article 5 (Frequency allocations), Section IV (Table of Frequency Allocations) (ITU Allocation Table). Section 2.100 of the Commission’s Rules states that: “The ITU Radio Regulations, edition of 2004, have been incorporated to the extent practicable in Subparts A and B of this part.” In the International Table within § 2.106, we do not replicate typographical or other errors that hold the potential to cause reader confusion or to convey misleading information. See, e.g., WRC-03 Omnibus R&O, note 45, infra (correcting several display errors). 16 47 C.F.R. § 2.104(a). Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 3 4. In the United States, radio spectrum may be allocated to either Federal Government (Federal) or non-Federal Government (non-Federal) use exclusively, or for shared use.17 As such, the U.S. Table is subdivided into the Federal Table of Frequency Allocations (Federal Table) and the non-Federal Table of Frequency Allocations (non-Federal Table).18 The Federal Table – column 4 of the Allocation Table – describes frequency bands that are administered by NTIA, whereas the non-Federal Table – column 5 of the Allocation Table – describes frequency bands that are administered by the Commission.19 Column 6 of the Allocation Table is the FCC Rule Part(s) column, which contains cross references to the Commission’s service rules, where applicable. The Federal Table and the FCC Rule Part(s) column are included in the Allocation Table for informational purposes only.20 5. The amendments in this instant Memorandum Opinion and Order are consistent with past actions that updated and clarified the Allocation Table and related rules. On December 16, 1999, the Commission’s Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) and Office of Managing Director (OMD) adopted the First Table Clean-up Order, which, like this action, made non-substantive revisions to the rules to update the Allocation Table and supporting rule sections in Part 2.21 On August 1, 2002, OET and OMD adopted the Second Table Clean-up Order, which updated the International Table to reflect the 2001 ITU Radio Regulations.22 III. DISCUSSION 6. In Sections A through E of this Memorandum Opinion and Order, we make changes that pertain to specific non-Federal radio services. In Section F, we reclassify three footnotes in order to correct and simplify the U.S. Table. In Sections G and H, at the request of NTIA, we update several radio astronomy footnotes and make additional modifications to the U.S. Table that will promote continued successful spectrum sharing between Federal agencies and non-Federal licensees. In Section I, we make additional display and footnote changes to the U.S. Table and to the description of the U.S. Table. In Appendix A, we make minor changes to the Allocation Table, to the text of several footnotes, and to Section 2.105; and in Appendix B, we update several of the FCC Rule Part cross references contained in Column 6 of the Allocation Table. A. Satellite Issues 7. NGSO MSS Feeder Links. In January 2002, the Commission allocated spectrum to the fixed-satellite service (FSS) in order to provide necessary feeder link spectrum for a number of commercial Non-Geostationary Satellite Orbit Mobile-Satellite Service (NGSO MSS) systems.23 Specifically, the Commission allocated the bands 5091-5250 MHz and 15.43-15.63 GHz for Earth-to- space transmissions (uplinks) and the band 6700-7025 MHz for space-to-Earth transmissions (downlinks). In addition, the Commission grandfathered two satellite systems and their associated earth stations at three sites in the downlink band 7025-7075 MHz. The Commission limited the use of these 17 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(b). 18 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(a). 19 Id. 20 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(3) and (e). 21 Amendment of Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules to Make Non-Substantive Revisions to the Table of Frequency Allocations, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 15 FCC Rcd 3459 (2000) (First Table Clean-up Order). 22 Amendment of Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules to Make Non-Substantive Revisions to the Table of Frequency Allocations, Order, 17 FCC Rcd 15263 (2002) (Second Table Clean-up Order). 23 Amendment of Parts 2, 25 and 97 of the Commission’s Rules with Regard to the Mobile-Satellite Service Above 1 GHz, ET Docket No. 98-142, Report and Order, 17 FCC Rcd 2658 (2002). Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 4 FSS allocations to feeder links that will be used in conjunction with the service links of NGSO MSS systems. 8. To implement this decision, the Commission modified the Allocation Table. It also amended the table in Section 25.202(a)(1) of its Rules, which lists the frequency bands that are available for FSS use (FSS Table), by adding the bands 5.091-5.25 GHz and 15.43-15.63 GHz to the Earth-to-space column and by adding the band 6.7-7.025 GHz to the space-to-Earth column.24 The Commission applied existing note 12 to each of these bands and adopted a note that contains the conditions that apply to each of the uplink bands.25 The Commission also added power flux-density (pfd) limits for the downlink band in Section 25.208(n) of its Rules.26 We note, however, that the amendments to the FSS Table were not properly codified and, thus, the FSS Table fails to list the NGSO MSS feeder link bands and their associated notes. In addition, we note that there is a typographical error in the pfd limits in Section 25.208(n). Because of these errors, Part 25 of the Rules fails to fully reflect the Commission’s decision in the MSS Feeder Link R&O. Accordingly, we are correcting Section 25.202(a)(1) by amending the FSS Table to add: (1) “5.091-5.25 12, 19” and “15.43-15.63 12, 20” to the Earth-to-space (GHz) column; (2) “6.7- 7.025 12” to the space-to-Earth (GHz) column; and (3) two notes (notes 19 and 20) that cross-reference the footnotes to Allocation Table that are applicable to the feeder uplink bands.27 We also take this opportunity to correct the heading of the “Space-to-Earth (GHz)” column in the FSS Table to read “space- to-Earth (GHz);” to delete a partially duplicate entry in the FSS Table;28 and to correct a typographical error in Section 25.208(n) of the Rules.29 All of these modifications are reflected in Appendix C. 9. 17/24 GHz BSS. On May 2, 2007, the Commission adopted processing and service rules for the 17/24 GHz Broadcasting-Satellite Service (BSS).30 As background, the 1992 World Administrative 24 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(a)(1). The FSS Table lists frequency bands in gigahertz (GHz). As a consequence of adding the NGSO MSS feeder link bands to Part 25, the Commission also added a Part 25 cross reference to the FCC Rule Part column of the Allocation Table for these bands. 25 Note 12 reads as follows: Use of this band by non-geostationary satellite orbit systems in the fixed-satellite service is limited to gateway earth station operations. 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(a)(1), note 12, revision year 2002. Note 14 was placed to the right of the band 5.091-5.25 GHz and it read as follows: See 47 CFR 2.106, footnotes S5.444A and US344, for conditions that apply to this band. Note 15 was placed to the right of the band 15.43-15.63 GHz and it read as follows: See 47 CFR 2.106, footnotes S5.511C and US359, for conditions that apply to this band. 26 47 C.F.R. § 25.208(n). 27 In the 2004 edition of the C.F.R., there are 17 notes to the FSS Table. 47 C.F.R. § 25.202(a)(1). The 17/24 GHz BSS R&O added note 18 to the FSS Table. See 17/24 GHz BSS R&O, note 26, infra, at amendatory instruction 10. Because the Commission has added notes 14-18 to the FSS Table since its adoption of the NGSO MSS Feeder Link R&O, the notes that were to be listed as 14 and 15 are being codified as notes 19 and 20. 28 In the space-to-Earth column of the FSS Table, “37.5-40” and “37.6-38.6” are listed. We are deleting “37.6-38.6” GHz because it is a sub-band of the larger band 37.5-40 GHz. 29 47 C.F.R. § 25.208(n). Specifically, we are amending Table N by adding a negative sign to “144,” which will correct the pfd limit in a 4 kHz reference bandwidth for angles of arrival between 25° and 90° in the band 6825-7075 MHz. 30 The term “17/24 GHz BSS” generally refers to geostationary BSS satellites that will transmit to subscribers in the band 17.3-17.7 GHz and to associated earth stations that will transmit to the BSS satellites (feeder uplinks) in the band 24.75-25.25 GHz. 47 C.F.R. § 25.201. See The Establishment of Policies and Service Rules for the Broadcasting-Satellite Service at the 17.3-17.7 GHz Frequency Band and at the 17.7-17.8 GHz Frequency Band Internationally, and at the 24.75-25.25 GHz Frequency Band for Fixed Satellite Services Providing Feeder Links to the Broadcasting-Satellite Service and for the Satellite Services Operating Bi-directionally in the 17.3-17.8 GHz Frequency Band, IB Docket No. 06-123, Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 22 FCC Rcd 8842 (2007) (17/24 GHz BSS R&O). Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 5 Radio Conference (WARC-92) adopted an additional BSS allocation for Region 2.31 In 2000, the Commission implemented, in large part, the Region 2 allocation for BSS domestically. The Commission recognized that although the allocation would not be effective for several years, its actions would provide interested parties with sufficient notice and time to design their systems to use this spectrum in the most efficient manner. Because these allocations became effective on April 1, 2007, we are removing the expired text from footnotes NG163 and NG167,32 and in addition, we are simplifying footnote NG163 by replacing the term “geostationary satellite orbit systems” with “geostationary satellites.”33 Furthermore, we note that footnote US259 is written to anticipate the entry of BSS feeder link stations in the band 17.3-17.7 GHz. Because such operations are now in effect, we are updating the text of footnote US259 to reflect this change.34 As a consequence of the commencement of BSS feederlink earth station operations, Federal stations in the radiolocation service that transmit in the band 17.3-17.7 GHz are required to operate with an equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) of less than 51 dBW. 10. We also take this opportunity to amend Part 90 of the Commission’s Rules to correctly list a frequency band in the Radiolocation Service Frequency Table.35 In November 1983, the Commission deleted the radiolocation service allocation from the band 17.3-17.7 GHz.36 However, this band is still listed in Radiolocation Service Frequency Table as part of the broader band 15,700-17,700 MHz. We have reviewed the Commission’s licensing database and have determined that there are no active radiolocation licenses in the band 17.3-17.7 GHz. Accordingly, we are amending Section 90.103(b) of the Rules by revising the band “15,700-17,700” MHz to “15,700-17,300” MHz. B. International Broadcast Stations 11. In this section we finalize the display of the WARC-92 HF broadcasting (HFBC) bands in the U.S. Table and update the service rules for international broadcast stations in order to recognize that the transition period for the WARC-92 HFBC bands has concluded and that these bands are now allocated exclusively to the broadcasting service. As background, international broadcast stations are broadcast stations employing frequencies allocated to the broadcasting service between 5900 kHz and 26100 kHz, the transmissions of which are intended to be received by the general public in foreign countries.37 The Commission licenses international broadcast stations to private entities under Part 73, Subpart F of its Rules. 12. In the ITU Radio Regulations, 3720 kilohertz of spectrum in ten HF bands are allocated to the broadcasting service on a primary and exclusive basis in all Regions.38 Of this total, 790 kilohertz 31 17/24 GHz BSS R&O, note 30, supra, at para. 3. 32 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes NG163 and NG167. 33 A geostationary satellite is a geosynchronous satellite whose circular and direct orbit lies in the plane of the Earth’s equator and which thus remains fixed relative to the Earth. 47 C.F.R. § 2.1. 34 See 17/24 GHz BSS R&O at Appendix G for the list of currently authorized earth stations operating in the band 17.3-17.7 GHz. 35 47 C.F.R. § 90.103(b). 36 See Amendment of Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules Regarding Implementation of the Final Acts of the World Administrative Radio Conference, Geneva, 1979, General Docket 80-739, Second Report and Order, 49 FR 2357 (January 19, 1984) at p. C-141 (reflecting the deletion) (WARC-79 Implementation R&O). 37 47 C.F.R. § 73.701(a). 38 Prior to WARC-92, the following eight bands were allocated exclusively to the HFBC service on a worldwide basis: 5950-6200 kHz, 9500-9900 kHz, 11650-12050 kHz, 13600-13800 kHz, 15100-15600 kHz, 17550-17900 kHz, 21450-21850 kHz, and 25670-26100 kHz. In addition, the band 7100-7300 kHz was allocated to the HFBC service on an exclusive basis in Regions 1 and 3. On the condition that harmful interference is not caused to the (continued....) Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 6 (21 percent) in ten frequency bands (collectively, the WARC-92 HFBC bands) was shared with other services until the recent conclusion of the ITU transition period on April 1, 2007.39 Prior to that date, this spectrum was internationally allocated to the broadcasting and fixed services on a co-primary basis in all Regions and certain of these bands were also allocated to the mobile service. As shown in Table A, below, the primary fixed and mobile service allocations in the WARC-92 HFBC bands, which had been listed directly in the ITU Allocation Table, were moved into footnotes 5.136, 5.143, 5.146, and 5.151. These international footnotes provided for a transition period during which the incumbent services were co-primary and after which stations in the incumbent services are limited to communicating only within the country in which they are located, on the condition that harmful interference is not caused to the broadcasting service. 13. At the 2003 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-03), the band 7350-7400 kHz was allocated to the broadcasting service on a co-primary basis with the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services until March 29, 2009, at which time this 50 kilohertz will be allocated exclusively for HFBC use. The primary fixed and mobile service allocations in the band 7350-7400 kHz, which had been listed in the ITU Allocation Table, were moved to footnotes 5.143A, 5.143B, and 5.143D. Like the WARC-92 HFBC footnotes, these international footnotes provide for a transition period during which the incumbent services are co-primary with the broadcasting service and after which stations in the incumbent services will be limited to communicating only within the country in which they are located, on the condition that harmful interference is not caused to the broadcasting service. 14. In 2003, the Commission allocated the WARC-92 HFBC bands to the broadcasting service on a co-primary basis with the incumbent fixed and mobile services.40 In describing this action, the Commission stated that it made: “an additional 1640 kilohertz of spectrum available exclusively for use by international broadcast stations, with 850 kilohertz immediately available and the remainder available after a transition period that ends April 1, 2007. Until the completion of the transition period, fixed and mobile stations will be allowed to continue to operate on a primary basis; after that date, these stations will be allowed to continue to operate on the condition that “harmful interference” is not caused to the broadcasting service. This action significantly increases the amount of spectrum available to international broadcasters on a worldwide basis, thus facilitating the sharing of information and entertainment by people throughout the world.”41 The Commission, acting on a request by NTIA, continued to directly list the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services in the WARC-92 HFBC bands in the U.S. Table. In doing so, the Commission reflected an expectation that fixed and mobile use would continue to be the main uses of (...continued from previous page) broadcasting service, fixed stations communicating within national borders may continue to use frequencies in the bands 9775-9900 kHz, 11650-11700 kHz, and 11975-12050 kHz. 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes 5.147 and US367. 39 At WARC-92, ten frequency bands were allocated to the broadcasting service. Eight of the WARC-92 HFBC bands are adjacent to six of the original HFBC bands (5900-5950 kHz, 9400-9500 kHz, 11600-11650 kHz, 12050-12100 kHz, 13570-13600 kHz, 13800-13870 kHz, 15600-15800 kHz, and 17480-17550 kHz), one of the WARC-92 HFBC bands is adjacent to the Regional allocation at 7100-7300 kHz (7300-7350 kHz), and one of the WARC-92 HFBC bands is not adjacent to an original HFBC band (18900-19020 kHz). 40 See Amendment of Parts 2, 73, 74, 80, 90, and 97 of the Commission’s Rules to Implement Decisions from World Radiocommunication Conferences Concerning Frequency Bands Below 28000 kHz, Report and Order, 18 FCC Rcd 3423 (2003) (“Below 28 MHz R&O”). The Commission deleted unused non-Federal fixed service allocations from the WARC-79 HFBC bands and, in the WARC-92 HFBC bands, decided that it would cease to issue licenses for new non-Federal stations in the fixed and mobile services on April 1, 2007. See Below 28 MHz R&O, 18 FCC Rcd at 3426, 3428, and 3430, paras. 6, 8, 12, and 14. 41 Below 28 MHz R&O at para. 2. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 7 these bands in the United States until the transition period concluded on April 1, 2007. The Commission also adopted footnote US366, which contains the transition plan for the WARC-92 HFBC bands. 15. In the WRC-03 Omnibus R&O, the Commission allocated the band 7350-7400 kHz to the broadcasting service on a co-primary basis with the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services.42 At that time, the Commission deleted the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile service allocations from the band 7300-7400 kHz in the U.S. Table and adopted footnote US396, which provided the transition plan for this band. 16. Because the ITU transition period for fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services has now concluded, we are finalizing the display in the Allocation Table of the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services in the WARC-92 HFBC bands. Accordingly, we are deleting the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile service allocations from the U.S. Table in the WARC-92 HFBC bands. We are also amending footnotes US366 and US396 as set forth in Appendix C. Doing so enables us to: (1) move the WARC-92 HFBC band (7300-7350 kHz) from footnote US396 to footnote US366; (2) remove expired information; and (3) codify the provisions that apply to stations in the fixed and mobile except aeronautical mobile services that operate in the WARC-92 HFBC bands in a clearer manner. Table A, below, depicts the changes that we are making in the U.S. Table to the WARC-92 HFBC bands and to the band 7350-7400 kHz.

We are also amending the service rules for international broadcast stations by updating Section 73.702. Specifically, we are moving the WARC-92 HFBC bands from the list of co-primary worldwide allocations to the list of exclusive worldwide allocations, i.e., from paragraph (g)(1)(i) to paragraph (f)(1). Because that action will result in only one paragraph under the heading “Worldwide allocations,” we are renumbering paragraph (g)(1)(ii) as paragraph (g)(1). Finally, we are removing an expired date from paragraph (g)(2)(i).43 C. Amateur Radio Service 18. In this section, we update the Commission’s Rules with regard to the Amateur Radio Service in order to unify our allocation and service rules and to reflect prior rulemaking decisions.44 These actions entail removing an expired footnote from the U.S. Table, as well as making conforming changes to the authorized frequency bands in Section 97.301 and the frequency sharing requirements in Section 97.303 of the Rules. 19. Specifically, we are updating the Allocation Table and service rules for the Amateur Radio Service with regard to the band 75.5-81 GHz (the 4 millimeter band). In the 70/80/90 GHz R&O, the Commission adopted a transition plan for the amateur use of the segment 75.5-76 GHz.45 There, the Commission concluded that moving amateur radio operations out of the 75.5-76 GHz band would not pose a major inconvenience to the Amateur Radio Service, but would substantially benefit future fixed services, because it would eliminate the possibility of harmful interference from amateurs. Accordingly, the primary allocations to the amateur and amateur-satellite services in the 75.5-76 GHz band were downgraded from primary to secondary status with secondary use ceasing on January 1, 2006. This transition plan was codified in footnote US387 and in Section 97.303(r)(3) of our amateur service rules. Because the transition period has concluded, we are removing expired footnote US387 from the list of 43 The second sentence in 47 C.F.R. § 702(g)(1) currently reads as follows: “After March 27, 2005, where practical, requests for frequency assignments in the band 7100-7200 kHz shall be satisfied within the band 7200-7350 kHz.” 44 47 C.F.R.

Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 9 U.S. footnotes46 and we are amending Part 97 of the Commission’s Rules to reflect this allocation change by: (1) revising the entry “75.5-81.0” GHz in Section 97.301(a) to read “76-81” GHz; (2) removing paragraphs (r)(2) and (r)(3) from Section 97.303; and (3) renumbering paragraph (r)(1) as paragraph (r). 20. We are making two changes to Part 97 based on the Commission’s 2006 Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O.47 First, we are correcting a typographical error in Section 97.301(d) that occurred during the codification of the 80 meter band. In the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O, the Commission revised “21.30-21.45” MHz to read “21.275-21.45” MHz in all Regions, but the current codification of the rule does not reflect this change.48 Second, we note that part of the 40 meter band authorized in Section 97.301(e) was inadvertently overwritten by the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O.49 Specifically, in that action, the Commission expanded the frequency segment authorized for amateur voice communications within the 40 meter band by correspondingly reducing a band segment used for narrowband emission types by 25 kHz, from 7.100-7.150 MHz to 7.100-7125 MHz.50 However, the revised frequency table in Section 97.301(e) of our Rules, which lists authorized frequency bands for Novice Class and Technician Class amateur radio operators, inadvertently omitted the band 7.100-7.125 MHz from Regions 1 and 3.51 Because the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O addressed the division of amateur frequencies among permissible emission types and not between geographic ITU Regions, we must further amend Section 97.301(e), as set forth in Appendix C, to implement the Commission’s decision. Specifically, we are revising the 40 meter band by reinserting the segment “7.100-7.125” MHz in the Region 1 and Region 3 columns.52 21. We take also this opportunity to correct Section 97.303(b) by removing a double negative from the rule.53 D. The Band 1427-1432 MHz 22. With regard to the band 1427-1432 MHz, we are improving the display of the fixed and land mobile service allocations directly listed in the U.S. Table. First, in the non-Federal Table, we are highlighting that, in accordance with footnote US350, the use of the primary land mobile service (LMS) allocation in the band 1427-1432 MHz is restricted to telemetry and telecommand operations. Thus, we 46 As a consequence of deleting footnote US387 from the list of U.S. footnotes, we are removing the reference to footnote US387 from the U.S. Table. 47 See Amendment of Part 97 of the Commission’s Rules Governing the Amateur Radio Services, WT Docket No. 04-140, Report and Order, 21 FCC Rcd 11643 (2006) (Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O) at 11650 and 11678, para. 12 and Appendix. 48 Prior to the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O, the General Class 80 meter band was “21.025-21.200” and “21.30-21.45”MHz in all Regions. 49 Prior to the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O, the Novice and Technician Class 40-meter band was “7.050-7.075” in Regions 1 and 3 and “7.100-7.150” MHz in all Regions. 47 C.F.R. § 97.301(e), edition of 2006. 50 Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O at 11650-51, para. 13. 51 Both the U.S. Table and the International Table reflect amateur allocations in this band. 52 See Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O, 21 FCC Rcd at 11650-51, paras. 13-14. See also Amendment of Parts 2, 25, and 73 of the Commission’s Rules to Implement Decisions from the World Radiocommunication Conference (Geneva, 2003) (WRC-03) Concerning Frequency Bands Between 5900 kHz and 27.5 GHz and to Otherwise Update the Rules in this Frequency Range, Report and Order, 20 FCC Rcd 6570 (2005) (WRC-03 Omnibus R&O) at note 133 finding that all spectrum that is in common with Region 2 (50 kilohertz) should be made available to Novice Class and Technician Class licensees when they are operating in Region 1 or Region 3. We note that the Amateur Phone Band Expansion R&O did not address or otherwise attempt to modify this finding. 53 Specifically, we are deleting the word “not” from Section 97.303(b). Currently this rule reads in pertinent part as follows: “No amateur station…shall not cause harmful interference….” 47 C.F.R. § 97.303(b). Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 10 list “LAND MOBILE (telemetry and telecommand)” in the non-Federal Table for the band 1427-1432 MHz.54 Specifically, we modify the listing to add the “(telemetry and telecommand)” restriction to the right of the LMS allocation in the band 1427-1429.5 MHz and to add “telecommand” to the existing parenthetical addition in the band 1427.5-1432 MHz. This action makes the LMS use restrictions in the non-Federal Table consistent with the Part 90 telemetry service rules55 and with allocation decisions made by the Commission when it established the Wireless Medical Telemetry Service (WMTS).56 23. Similarly, in the non-Federal Table, we are highlighting that the use of the primary fixed service allocation in the band 1429.5-1432 MHz is restricted to telemetry and telecommand operations by adding “telecommand” to the existing parenthetical addition. This action makes the restrictions on the fixed service in the non-Federal Table consistent with the Part 90 telemetry service rules.57 24. Second, in the Federal Table, we are highlighting that the use of the primary land mobile service allocation in the band 1427-1429.5 MHz is restricted to medical telemetry and medical telecommand operations by listing this restriction to the right of the allocation. Thus, we modify the Federal Table for the band 1427-1429.5 MHz to read “LAND MOBILE (medical telemetry and medical telecommand).” As a result of this action, the display of the “nationwide” WMTS bands (608-614 MHz, 1395-1400 MHz, and 1427-1429.5 MHz) will be consistent in the Federal Table.58 The changes to the band 1427-1432 MHz are shown in Table B, below.

(b) and (c) of Section 90.259 of the Commission’s Rules. 47 C.F.R. § 90.259. 56 The use of the “LAND MOBILE (telemetry and telecommand)” allocation in the band 1427-1429.5 MHz, which will be directly listed in the non-Federal Table, is limited by footnote US350 to medical telemetry and medical telecommand operations on a nationwide basis, except in certain specified areas where general Part 90 telemetry and telecommand operations are alternatively permitted on a primary basis. See Amendment of Parts 2 and 95 of the Commission's Rules to Create a Wireless Medical Telemetry Service, ET Docket No. 99-255 and PR Docket No. 92-235, Report and Order, 15 FCC Rcd 11206 (2000) at Appendix A. 57 Id. 58 Within the band 1427-1429.5 MHz, only the sub-band 1429-1429.5 MHz is allocated nationwide for WMTS use. In the sub-band 1427-1429 MHz, the WMTS allocation is nationwide except in the areas listed in footnote US350. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 11 E. The Band 698-941 MHz 25. As described below, we are addressing four footnotes (NG158, NG159, NG31, and US215) in the band 698-941 MHz. Specifically, we are inserting a reference to footnote NG158 in the Allocation Table and we are removing footnotes NG31 and US215 from the Allocation Table. These and related actions are also shown in Tables C and D, below. In addition, we are updating the text of footnote NG159. 26. Footnote NG158. In the 700 MHz Second R&O, the Commission, inter alia, shifted the public safety spectrum down in frequency by one megahertz (from 764-776/794-806 MHz to 763-775/793-805 MHz).59 In an Erratum, footnote NG158 was updated to reflect the public safety spectrum shift, but the Allocation Table itself was not updated.60 We note that, in its previous allocation actions, the Commission allocated the entire band 698-806 MHz to the fixed and mobile services on a primary basis, but that the Commission maintained the primary broadcasting service allocation only in the commercial and guard band portions of that band. Accordingly, we amend the non-Federal Table herein to reflect the totality of the Commission’s allocation decisions for the band 698-806 MHz. 27. Footnote NG159. The Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005 amended, inter alia, the Communication Act with regard to the removal and relocation of incumbent broadcast stations.61 Thus, we are amending footnote NG159 to reflect the transition requirements for full-power television stations and for auxiliary broadcast stations in the band 698-806 MHz. See Appendix C for the revised text of footnote NG159. 28. BETRS. In 2004, the Commission revised its rules for the Basic Exchange Telecommunications Radio Service (BETRS).62 Specifically, the channels for BETRS systems were revised such that the two frequency bands listed in footnote NG31 (816-820 MHz and 861-865 MHz) are no longer listed in Section 22.757. Accordingly, we are removing footnote NG31 from the list of non-Federal Government footnotes. 29. We also take this opportunity to simplify the non-Federal Table by merging: (1) the bands 809-821 MHz, 821-824 MHz, and 824-849 MHz to form the larger band 809-849 MHz;63 and (2) the bands 854-869 MHz and 869-894 MHz to form the larger band 854-894 MHz.64 59 Service Rules for the 698-746, 747-762 and 777-792 MHz Bands, WT Docket No. 06-150, Second Report and Order, FCC 07-132, adopted July 31, 2007, released August 10, 2007 (700 MHz Second R&O). 60 Erratum, DA 07-4384, released October 25, 2007. 61 The Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005 is available at http://www.dtv.gov/DTVAct.pdf. See also FCC Consumer Advisory titled “The DTV Transition and LPTV/Class A/Translator Stations,” which is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/DTVandLPTV.html. 62 Amendment of Part 22 of the Commission’s Rules To Benefit the Consumers of Air-Ground Telecommunications Services, WT Docket No. 03-103, Report and Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 20 FCC Rcd 4403 (2005) at paras. 165-166. 63 In the Second Erratum (DA 04-3208, rel. Oct. 6, 2004) to the 800 MHz Report and Order, the Commission allocated the bands 821-824 MHz and 866-869 MHz to the fixed service on a primary basis for non-Federal use. On November 16, 2007, FCC staff noticed that the fixed service allocation in the band 821-824 MHz had not been added to the FCC Online Table and corrected this error. 64 After deleting the reference to footnote NG31, the only differences between the band 854-869 MHz and the band 869-894 MHz in the non-Federal Table are the references to footnotes US116 and US268, both of which apply only to the sub-band 890-894 MHz. In the Federal Table, we merge the band 890-894 MHz with the band 894-902 MHz in order to highlight Federal usage. Because footnotes US116 and US268 apply to the band 890-902 MHz, we conclude that it will be clearer to the reader if this entire span is shown.

Wideband Microwave Ovens. The band 902-928 MHz is designated for industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) applications in Region 2 and radiocommunication services operating within this band must accept harmful interference which may be caused by these applications.65 In 1974, the Commission required that microwave ovens manufactured after 1980 that use the 900 MHz spectrum operate within the band 902-928 MHz and permitted microwave ovens manufactured prior to 1980 to 65 ISM equipment operating in the band 902-928 MHz is required to have a center frequency of 915 MHz and this equipment is subject to the provisions of ITU Radio Regulation No. 15.13. 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnote 5.150 and ITU Radio Regulations, Article 15, No. 15.13. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 13 continue to operate in the broader band 902-940 MHz (wideband microwave ovens).66 The Commission codified its transition plan for wideband microwave ovens in footnote US215.67 31. Microwave ovens manufactured prior to January 1, 1980 have been grandfathered for more than 27 years. Given this time frame and recognizing the life cycle of such equipment, it is reasonable to conclude that wideband microwave ovens are no longer in use. Accordingly, we are removing footnote US215 from the list of U.S. footnotes. After deleting the reference to footnote US215 from the band 935-940 MHz, we note that the entries in the Federal Table for this band and the band 940-941 MHz are exactly the same. Therefore, we are combining these bands to form the larger band 935-941 MHz in the Federal Table. These changes are reflected in Table D.

As a result, we note that footnote US215 was “amended to remove the provision which would allow ISM devices to make use of the 928-940 MHz band until 1980.” Specifically, the Commission amended footnote US215 to read as follows: “Radiocommunications services operating in the band 890-940 MHz must accept any harmful interference from the operation of any ISM device operating in accordance with FCC standards in effect as of the date of manufacture of the ISM device.” An Inquiry Relative to the Future Use of the Frequency Band 806-960 MHz; and Amendment of Parts 2, 18, 21, 73, 74, 89, 91, and 93 of the Rules Relative to Operations in the Land Mobile Service Between 806 and 960 MHz, Docket No. 18262, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 51 F.C.C. 2d 945 (1975), paras. 18-20. The 1975 revision of footnote US215 was codified in the C.F.R., but it was subsequently overwritten by the original 1974 text in the WARC-79 Implementation R&O. Thus, the original 1974 text has continued to shown in the Commission’s Rules. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 14 F. Reclassification of Footnotes 32. During our review, we determined that three footnotes (US302, US321, and G106) should be reclassified (as footnotes NG30, NG1, and US1, respectively) in order to correct and simplify the U.S. Table. As background, U.S. footnotes denote a stipulation affecting both Federal and non-Federal operations and appear in both the Federal and non-Federal Tables; whereas non-Federal footnotes denote a stipulation applicable only to non-Federal operations and appear solely in the non-Federal Table.68 Similarly, Federal footnotes denote a stipulation applicable only to Federal operations and appear solely in the Federal Table.69 33. First, we apply the definitions of U.S. and non-Federal footnotes to footnotes US302 and US321,70 conclude that these footnotes denote stipulations applicable only to non-Federal operations, and conclude that reclassifying these footnotes as non-Federal footnotes would allow us to correct and simplify the U.S. Table.71 Also, in order to make the text of footnote US302 more consistent with international footnotes, we are highlighting the alternative allocation by listing Puerto Rico first and by modifying the text. Accordingly, we are reclassifying footnotes US302 and US321 as footnotes NG30 and NG1, respectively, which shall read as follows: NG1 The band 535-1705 kHz is also allocated to the mobile service on a secondary basis for the distribution of public service information from Travelers Information Stations operating in accordance with the provisions of 47 CFR 90.242 on 10 kilohertz spaced channels from 540 kHz to 1700 kHz. NG30 In Puerto Rico, the band 942-944 MHz is alternatively allocated to the fixed service (aural broadcast auxiliary stations). As a consequence of reclassifying footnote US302 as a non-Federal footnote (NG30), we are updating: (1) the cross reference in footnote US301 from “US302” to “NG30;” and (2) Section 74.502 from “US 302” to “NG30.” In addition, we are correcting Section 90.242(a)(3) to read “Travelers’ Information Stations will be authorized on a primary basis on 530 kHz and on a secondary basis to stations authorized on a primary basis in the band 535-1705 kHz.” 34. Next, we apply the definitions of U.S. and Federal footnotes to footnote G106, observe that this footnote denotes a stipulation affecting both Federal and non-Federal operations (i.e., the shutdown provision) that should appear in both the Federal and non-Federal Tables, and conclude that this footnote should be reclassified as U.S. footnote (US1).72 In order to continue to limit this allocation to Federal use, 68 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(ii) and (d)(5)(iii). 69 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(5)(iv). 70 Footnote US302 currently reads as follows: The band 942-944 MHz in Puerto Rico is allocated as an alternative allocation to the fixed service for broadcast auxiliary stations only. Footnote US321 currently reads as follows: The band 535-1705 kHz is also allocated to the non-Federal mobile service on a secondary basis for the distribution of public service information from Travelers' Information Stations operating in accordance with the provisions of 47 CFR 90.242 on 10 kilohertz spaced channels from 540 kHz to 1700 kHz. 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes US302 and US321. 71 Specifically, because the Federal and non-Federal Tables are not merged in the pertinent bands (i.e., the bands that comprise 535-1705 kHz for footnote US321 and the band 941-944 MHz for footnote US302), reclassification allows us to remove unneeded footnote references from the Federal Table without increasing the complexity of the U.S. Table. 72 Footnote G106 currently reads as follows: “The bands 2501-2502 kHz, 5003-5005 kHz, 10003-10005 kHz, 15005-15010 kHz, 19990-19995 kHz, 20005-20010 kHz and 25005-25010 kHz are also allocated, on a secondary basis, to the space research service. The space research transmissions are subject to immediate temporary or permanent shutdown in the event of interference to the reception of the standard frequency and time broadcasts.” 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnote G106. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 15 we are adding the phrase “for Federal use” to the footnote. Accordingly, we are reclassifying footnote G106 as a United States footnote (US1), which shall read as follows: US1 The bands 2501-2502 kHz, 5003-5005 kHz, 10003-10005 kHz, 15005-15010 kHz, 19990-19995 kHz, 20005-20010 kHz, and 25005-25010 kHz are also allocated to the space research service on a secondary basis for Federal use. In the event of interference to the reception of the standard frequency and time broadcasts, these space research transmissions are subject to immediate temporary or permanent shutdown. 35. We note that this action significantly simplifies the U.S. Table because it allows us to merge 18 cells into only six; see Table E, below.

Radio Astronomy 36. At the request of the National Science Foundation (NSF), NTIA has recommended that five U.S. footnotes that pertain to the radio astronomy service be updated and/or corrected. We believe that implementation of these modifications can assist non-Federal NGSO FSS licensees in identifying their obligation to protect radio observatories that observe in various frequency bands. We are modifying the five footnotes, as follows: First we are amending footnote US355 to revise the entries for the Arecibo Observatory, the Green Bank Telescope, and the Very Large Array (VLA) to include “PR,” “WV,” and “Socorro, NM,” respectively; correct 12 of the 13 coordinates in footnote US355; and list the coordinates in their normal order (i.e., latitude is listed before longitude).73 37. Next, we are modifying footnote US388 by: (1) revising the seconds portion of coordinates of the Robert C. Byrd Telescope and the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) stations located at Los Alamos and Mauna Kea so that they match the updated coordinates in footnote US355;74 (2) revising the seconds portion of the coordinates of the University of Arizona’s 12 meter telescope at Kitt Peak from 10" to 12" North latitude and from 50" to 53" West longitude;75 (3) deleting the BIMA telescope at Hat Creek, CA; (4) correcting “Five Colleges” to read “Five College;” (5) revising the seconds portion of the coordinates for the Five College Observatory from 33" to 30" North latitude and from 40" to 42" West longitude; (6) revising the seconds portion of the coordinates for the Haystack Observatory from 23" to 24" North latitude and from 19" to 18" West longitude; (7) revising the seconds portion of the longitude for the Maxwell Telescope from 20" to 47" West; (8) adding the coordinates for the new Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA) telescope; and (9) revising “§ 101.1523” in the Note to read “47 CFR 101.1523.”76 38. Third, we are amending footnote US117 to correct and simplify its text by: (1) correcting the VLA longitude by two arc seconds;77 (2) improving the paragraph numbering; (3) employing the simplified coordinate scheme adopted elsewhere in this Order; (4) using State abbreviations and other simplifications; and (5) adding an e-mail address for the spectrum managers of the Arecibo Observatory and the VLA. 39. Fourth, we are amending footnote US311 to make a one arc minute correction to the latitude of the VLBA station in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands (i.e., to correct 17° 46' N to read 17° 45' N). Appendix C reflects all of these modifications. 73 Specifically, NTIA recommends that the seconds portion of the coordinates listed in footnote US355 be revised as follows: (1) Arecibo from 46 to 37" N and from 11 to 10" W; (2) Green Bank from 24 to 23" W; (3) VLA from 04 to 06" W; (4) Fort Davis from 39 to 41" W; (5) Kitt Peak from 22 to 23" N and from 42 to 45" W; (6) Los Alamos from 42 to 44" W; (7) Mauna Kea from 16 to 05" N and 29 to 20" W; (8) North Liberty from 26 to 27" W; (9) Owens Valley from 34 to 37" W; (10) Pie Town from 07 to 09" W; and (11) St Croix from 31 to 24" N and 03 to 01" W. NTIA also recommends that the coordinates for the Brewster, WA VLBA station be revised from 48° 07' 53" N, 119° 40' 55" W to 48° 07' 52" N, 119° 41' 00" W. 74 Specifically, NTIA suggests the following changes: (1) Robert C. Byrd Telescope (Green Bank, WV) from 24" to 23" West longitude; (2) Los Alamos VLBA station from 31" to 30" North latitude; and (3) Mauna Kea VLBA station from 19" to 20" West longitude. 75 Specifically, NTIA suggests that we update the coordinates of the University of Arizona’s 12 meter telescope at Kitt Peak to be 31° 57' 12'' N, 111° 36' 53'' W. 76 At the time that footnote US388 was adopted, the coordinates for the new CARMA telescope were unknown, and thus, the Commission could only state that “CARMA will be located at a new, high-altitude site in eastern California.” We can now specify that the 150 kilometer coordination radius for the CARMA telescope is centered on 37° 16' 43'' N, 118° 08' 32'' W. 77 Specifically, NTIA suggests that the West longitude entry be changed from 107° 37' 04" to 107° 37' 06". Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 17 H. Additional U.S. Table Modifications 40. We have identified, in conjunction with NTIA, additional minor changes that will allow us to simplify the U.S. Table and associated footnotes. We believe that these changes, which we describe below, will make the U.S. Table easier to read and understand. 41. First, we are revising the second sentence in footnote US229 to read as follows: “NTIA shall not authorize new Federal assignments in the sub-band 216-217 MHz.”78 Second, we are revising footnotes US7 and US217 to list geographic areas in a simplified and consistent manner. In addition, we are further updating footnote US7 to replace the description of FCC “Engineer In Charge at applicable district office” with “District Director of the applicable field office.” We are also updating footnote US217 to delete the unneeded adjectives “Federal and non-Federal.” 42. Third, NTIA requests that footnotes US222 and US362 be amended in order to correct the coordinates of the geostationary operational environmental satellite (GOES) earth stations at Wallops Island, Virginia; Fairbanks, Alaska; and Greenbelt, Maryland.79 In this Order, we are implementing the use of a more uniform terminology and style in the text of domestic footnotes and we find that NTIA’s requested text changes will help us accomplish this goal. We also believe that the corrections to footnotes US222 and US362 will be of assistance in the coordination of broadcast auxiliary stations operating near Wallops Island and in the protection of the three primary Federal incumbent receive earth stations, respectively, and amend the footnotes accordingly. Also, we find it unnecessary for the three sites listed in footnote US222 to be separately listed, and therefore, we are listing these sites as part of the sentence. We further note that the coordinates listed in footnote US362 are also codified in Section 1.924(g).80 Accordingly, we are amending the GOES earth station coordinates in Section 1.924(g) in order to provide consistency within the Commission’s Rules. 43. Fourth, we are using the phrase “the United States and its insular areas”81 to replace “the United States and possessions” in footnotes US247 and we are using the term “conterminous United States” to replace “continental United States” in footnote US11 and “contiguous 48 States” in US217.”82 In addition, we are adding the terms “conterminous United States”83 and “insular area” and their definitions to Section 2.1.84 These modifications promote consistency and provide for a common use of these terms. 78 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnote US229. The second sentence currently reads as follows: “After January 1, 2002, no new Federal assignments shall be authorized in the band 216-217 MHz.” 79 See letter from Associate Administrator, Office of Spectrum Management, NTIA, to Acting Chief, OET, received on September 9, 2005. Specifically, in footnote US222, NTIA requests that the coordinates for Wallops Island be revised from 37° 50' 48" N, 75° 27' 33" W to 37° 56' 44" N, 75° 27' 42" W. With regard to footnote US362, NTIA requests that the GOES earth station coordinates be revised as follows: (1) revise the Wallops Island latitude by 3 arc seconds (from 37° 56' 47" N to 37° 56' 44" N); (2) revise the Fairbanks latitude by 14 arc seconds and the Fairbanks longitude by slightly more than an arc minute (from 64° 58' 36'' N, 147° 31' 03'' W to 64° 58' 22'' N, 147° 30' 04'' W); and (3) revise the Greenbelt longitude by 2 arc seconds (from 76° 50' 31'' W to 76° 50' 29'' W). 80 47 C.F.R. § 1.924(g). 81 We note that the phrase “United States and its insular areas” is used in footnotes US18, US104, US350, US366, US367, US396, and NG66. 82 This term is defined in Chapter 6 of the NTIA Manual at page 6-4. 83 We note that the term conterminous United States is already used in footnotes US93 and G115. 84 Section 2.1 contains the terms and definitions that prevail throughout the Commission’s Rules. 47 C.F.R. § 2.1. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 18 44. Fifth, footnote US379 was adopted by the Commission in the Above 76 GHz R&O.85 Our review finds that the reference to this footnote was inadvertently overwritten in the WRC-03 Omnibus R&O.86 Therefore, we take this opportunity to correct the U.S. Table by adding “US379” immediately to the right of “FIXED” in the band 55.78-56.9 GHz. 45. Sixth, we are making additional corrections to the Allocation Table, to international, U.S., Federal, and non-Federal footnotes, and to Section 2.105. These revisions are generally of a grammatical, spacing, footnote placement, simplifying, consistency, or typographical nature. Appendix A lists these corrections. 46. Finally, we are updating the FCC Rule Part cross references that are listed in Column 6 of the Allocation Table.87 Appendix B lists these updates. I. Additional Changes to the U.S. Table and to its Description 47. In order to make the U.S. Table easier for the American public to use, we are making additional display and footnote changes to the U.S. Table in Subsections 1 through 4 and to the description of the U.S. Table in Subsections 5 and 6. 1. Mobile Except Aeronautical Mobile Service 48. The mobile service is comprised of the aeronautical mobile service, the land mobile service, and the maritime mobile service. In the U.S. Table, the mobile except aeronautical mobile service is generally used when a band is allocated to only the land mobile and maritime mobile services. However, we note that an older display method is still used five times in the non-Federal Table. Specifically, we observe that “LAND MOBILE” and “MARITIME MOBILE” are listed in the band 2107-2170 kHz, 2194-2495 kHz, 2505-2850 kHz, 157.1875-157.45 MHz, and 161.775-162.0125 MHz. Accordingly, we are replacing “LAND MOBILE” and “MARITIME MOBILE” with “MOBILE except aeronautical mobile” in the five frequency bands listed above. This action will simplify the non-Federal Table and will improve upon its internal consistency. 2. NTIA Coordination Requirement 49. We note that eight U.S. footnotes (US337, US338, US344, US348, US359, US360, US368, and US401) explicitly require that the Commission coordinate certain frequency bands with NTIA, but that this requirement is not specified in a uniform manner.88 Therefore, for consistency, we have herein 85 Footnote US379 reads as follows: “In the band 55.78-56.26 GHz, in order to protect stations in the Earth exploration-satellite service (passive), the maximum power density delivered by a transmitter to the antenna of a fixed service station is limited to -28.5 dB(W/MHz).” 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnote US379. Amendment of Part 2 of the Commission’s Rules to Allocate Additional Spectrum to the Inter-Satellite, Fixed, and Mobile Services and to Permit Unlicensed Devices to Use Certain Segments in the 50.2-50.4 GHz and 51.4-71.0 GHz Bands, ET Docket No. 03-102, Report and Order, 19 FCC Rcd 3237 (2004) (Above 76 GHz R&O) at para. 25. 86 WRC-03 Omnibus R&O at Appendix A, § 2.106, U.S. Table, wherein footnote US379 is not shown in the in band 55.78-56.9 GHz. 87 If a frequency or frequency band has been allocated to a radiocommunication service in the non-Federal Table, then a cross reference may be added for the pertinent FCC Rule Part. The FCC Rule Parts listed in Column 6 are not allocations and are provided for informational purposes only. 47 C.F.R. § 2.105(d)(6). 88 Under current procedures, the Commission coordinates with NTIA through the Frequency Assignment Subcommittee (FAS) of the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee (IRAC). The IRAC is a committee of the Federal departments, agencies, and administrations that advises NTIA in assigning frequencies to Federal radio stations and in developing and executing policies, programs, procedures, and technical criteria pertaining to the allocation, management, and use of the spectrum. See 47 C.F.R. § 2.1. Currently, footnote US337 requires coordination through the “frequency assignment subcommittee,” footnotes US338, US348, and US401 require (continued....) Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 19 amended seven of these footnotes to require coordination with NTIA (i.e., not the FAS or IRAC). We further revise, for clarity, five of the footnotes (US337, US338, US348, US368, and US401). In footnote US338, we are also explicitly stating that the purpose of the coordination is to minimize harmful interference to deep space reception in an adjacent band (2290-2300 MHz). In order to include stations in the mobile except aeronautical mobile service in the coordination requirement specified in footnote US348, we are revising “All fixed and fixed satellite operations” to read “all non-Federal operations.” Accordingly, we are amending footnotes US337, US338, US344, US348, US359, US360, US368, and US401 as shown in Appendix C. 3. Adopting Uniform Terminology 50. We note that the terms “segment” and “sub-band” have the same meaning, that both terms are used in U.S. footnotes, and that the term segment is also used in non-Federal footnotes.89 Because, in this Order, we are attempting to provide greater uniformity within the U.S. Table, it is appropriate for us to adopt a consistent term.90 Because the term sub-band is used in the ITU Radio Regulations, the NTIA Manual, and in Part 25 of the Commission’s Rules, we conclude that its uniform use in Part 2 is appropriate.91 In addition, we observe that because every sub-band can be categorized as a band, the term sub-band should only be used in those footnotes that contain a broader frequency band. Accordingly, we are amending: (1) footnotes US267, US335, NG53, and NG147 by replacing “segment” with “sub-band;” (2) footnotes US335, NG172, and NG53 by replacing various uses of “band” with “sub-band;” and (3) footnotes US307, US353, and US354 by replacing various uses of “sub-band” with “band.”92 51. We observe that three of these footnotes (US267, US307, and NG53) would benefit from further revision. Specifically, we make several minor editorial revisions to footnote US267 to improve its readability.93 For consistency, we are amending footnote US307 by revising “for space-to-Earth transmissions in the fixed satellite service” to read “to the fixed-satellite service (space-to-Earth).” We observe that footnote NG53 refers to four sub-bands within the band 13.15-13.25 GHz in an unstructured manner. Accordingly, we are amending footnote NG53 to provide an introductory paragraph and to provide a paragraph structure that will assist the reader. We also take this opportunity to introduce the abbreviations used in this footnote. 52. During our review of this issue, we determined that three other footnotes (US351, US378, and NG124) should also be revised for clarity. First, we note that footnote US351 states that the radius of (...continued from previous page) coordination through the “Frequency Assignment Subcommittee of the Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee,” footnotes US344 and US359 require coordination through the “Frequency Assignment Subcommittee,” footnote US360 states only that coordination is required, and the footnote US368 requires coordination with “NTIA.” 89 Specifically, the term “sub-band” is used in 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes US90, US217, US229, US307, US334, US351, US353, US354, US378, and US396; and the term “segment” is used in 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes US267, US335, NG53, NG124, and NG147. 90 We note the Commission’s Rules may contain other references to “segment” and “sub-band.” In some cases, such as in the Amateur Radio Service, a particular term may be in common use and it is appropriate to keep the existing terminology. Therefore, our modifications are exclusive to the Part 2 Rules associated with the Allocation Table. 91 Specifically, the term “sub-band” is used in 47 C.F.R. § 2.106, footnotes 5.425, 5.537A, and G59; and in 47 C.F.R § 25.202, notes 7 and 9, 25.259(c), and 25.260(c). 92 Footnotes US307, US353, and US354 speak of “sub-bands,” but these footnotes do not contain a larger frequency band. We believe that it is unnecessary and potentially confusing for footnotes to use the term “sub-band” if a larger frequency band is not specified in the footnote. 93 Specifically, we amend footnote US267 by revising “bounded by the area of latitude 39°N. to 42°N. and longitude 103°W. to 108°W” to read “bounded by the area of latitudes 39° N and 42° N and longitudes 103° W and 108° W.” Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 20 operation at each of the 17 grandfathered sites is 80 km and we conclude that this needless repetition should be removed. Accordingly, we are amending footnote US351 by adding the phrase “80 km radius of operation centered on:” to the top of the table; by deleting the radius columns; and by listing the State abbreviations of the sites in alphabetic order in a new first column. 53. Second, we are restructuring footnote US378 by first listing the areas where Federal fixed and tactical radio relay stations may operate indefinitely and by moving the provision that applies to all other Federal stations from the introductory paragraph to a new paragraph (d). We note that paragraph (a) of footnote US378 contains an unnecessary two-entry table that can be changed into a single sentence. Accordingly, we are amending paragraph (a) of footnote US378 to read as follows: “Federal fixed and tactical radio relay stations may operate indefinitely on a primary basis within 80 km of Cherry Point, NC (34° 58' N, 076° 56' W) and Yuma, AZ (32° 32' N, 113° 58' W).” We note that paragraph (b) of footnote US378 repeats the definition of a secondary service and states that the radius of operation at seven sites is 80 km and that the radius of operation at another seven sites is 50 km. Accordingly, we are amending paragraph (b) of footnote US378 by: (1) removing “, and shall not cause harmful interference to, and must accept harmful interference from,”; (2) adding the phrase “80 km radius of operation centered on:” to the top of the table and by applying it to the first seven entries; (3) adding the phrase “50 km radius of operation centered on:” to the middle of the table and by applying it to the remaining seven entries; (4) deleting the radius columns; and (5) listing the State abbreviations of the locations in alphabetic order in a new first column. 54. Lastly, we note that the reference to footnote NG124 has not been added to all the bands specified in that footnote, that Section 90.20(e) lists the sub-bands that apply to footnote NG124, and that the sub-bands could be listed in footnote NG124 with greater specificity in order to minimize the number of cells in which the footnote reference must be added. Accordingly, we amend footnote NG124 to read as follows: “In the bands 30.85-34, 37-38, 39-40, 42-47.41, 150.995-156.25, 158.715-159.465, 453.0125- 453.9875, 458.0125-458.9875, 460.0125-465.6375, and 467.9375-467.9875 MHz, police licensees are authorized to operate low power transmitters on a secondary basis in accordance with the provisions of 47 CFR 2.803 and 90.20(e)(5).” In the non-Federal Table, we add a reference to footnote NG124 in the band 156.2475-157.0375 MHz. 4. Format of Domestic Footnotes 55. We are revising the format of 27 domestic footnotes in order to provide for consistency. First, we are revising the format of five footnotes so that the same paragraph structure of a rule section is also used in domestic footnotes.94 Thus, we are amending footnotes US11, US335, US368, G6, and NG172 by revising paragraph “(1)” to read “(a),” paragraph “(2)” to read “(b),” etc.95 56. Second, we are amending nine non-Federal footnotes for clarity and consistency with regard to cross referencing other rule parts or rule sections. Specifically, we note that footnotes NG53, NG141, NG144, NG155, NG158, and NG173 contain the phrase “of this chapter,” which refers to chapter I [Federal Communications Commission] of Title 47 [Telecommunication]. The National Science Foundation (NSF) states that the phrase “of this chapter” in domestic footnotes is ambiguous because it 94 The paragraph structure of a section in the C.F.R. is: level 1 (a), (b), (c), etc. level 2 (1), (2), (3), etc. level 3 (i), (ii), (iii), etc. level 4 (A), (B), (C), etc. See Federal Register Document Drafting Handbook, October 1998 Revision, p. 2-28. 95 Other revisions to footnotes US368 were previously discussed in para. 49, supra. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 21 could be interpreted to mean “this chapter” of the NTIA Manual in which the footnotes also appear.96 We concur and note that the Federal Register provides an alternative means for cross referencing rules. Specifically, the Federal Register’s format is “47 CFR” followed by either the rule part (e.g., 47 CFR part 101) or section number (e.g., 47 CFR 101.101). Accordingly, we are amending: (1) footnote NG53 by revising “§ 76.51 of this chapter” to read “47 CFR 76.51;” (2) footnote NG141 by revising “part 22 of this chapter” to read “47 CFR part 22;” (3) footnote NG144 by deleting “of this chapter” from “47 CFR 21.901(e), 74.502(c), 74.602(g), 78.18(a)(4), and 101.147(r) of this chapter;” (4) footnote NG155 by revising “Part 80 of this chapter” to read “47 CFR part 80;” (5) footnote NG158 by revising “Part 90 of this chapter” to read “47 CFR part 90;”and (6) footnote NG173 by revising “§ 90.259 of this chapter” to read “47 CFR 90.259.” 57. We note that footnotes NG147, NG149, and NG184 contain similar phrases that should be amended for clarity and consistency. Therefore, in footnote NG147, we are replacing “Part 74 (Television Broadcast Auxiliary Stations), Part 90 (Private Land Mobile Radio Services), or Part 101 (Fixed Microwave Services) of the Commission’s Rules” and “Part 27 (Miscellaneous Wireless Communication Services) of the Commission’s Rules” with “47 CFR parts 74, 90, or 101” and “47 CFR part 27,” respectively. In addition, we are amending footnote NG149 by changing “part 73 of the rules” to read “47 CFR part 73;” and we are amending NG184 from “Part 101, Subpart J of the Commission’s Rules” to read “47 CFR part 101, subpart J.” 58. Third, in order to make the text of four domestic footnotes (US299, NG28, NG51, and NG141) more consistent with international footnotes, we are highlighting additional and alternative allocations by listing the affected State or insular area first.97 In addition, we are simplifying and updating footnote NG28 by replacing “remote pickup base and remote pickup mobile stations” and “the land transportation radio service” with “remote pickup broadcast stations” and “stations in the Industrial/Business Pool,” respectively. We are updating footnote NG51 by replacing “the bands 150.8-150.98 MHz and 150.98-151.49 MHz are allocated exclusively to the business radio service” with “the use of band 150.8-151.49 MHz by the fixed and land mobile services is limited to stations in the Industrial/Business Pool.” Accordingly, we are revising footnotes US299, NG28, NG51, and NG141 as shown in Appendix C. 59. Fourth, we are revising the text of footnotes US7, US11, US81, US251, US252, US262, US311, and NG66, which list various cities and States or insular areas, in order to consistently use the geographical abbreviations for the States and the insular areas that are listed in Annex G of the NTIA Manual.98 At the request of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), we are amending footnotes US251 and US311 by revising the coordinates of the Goldstone Deep Space Communication Complex to read 35° 20' N, 116° 53', and we are adding these coordinates to footnotes US252 and US262.99 Because the first sentence in footnote US262 provides for a non-Federal allocation, we are clarifying the second sentence in footnote US262 by explicitly stating that the geographic limitation applies to Federal and non-Federal use. These modifications are reflected in Appendix C. 96 On May 24, 2007, Commission staff corrected the FCC Online Table in order to make the text of eight footnotes consistent with the C.F.R. We informed NTIA of these staff corrections and NTIA informed the IRAC members. NSF provided comments on May 30, 2007. 97 In the ITU Radio Regulations, footnotes containing additional or alternative allocations list the countries where these allocations are available first. 98 See NTIA Manual, Annex G, Part 2, pages G-13 and G-14. 99 Currently, footnotes US251 and US311 list the coordinates for NASA’s Goldstone Deep Space Communication Complex as 35° 18' N, 116° 54' W. Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 22 60. Lastly, it is our policy to use the terms that are abbreviated in Section 2.1 of the Commission’s Rules in the text of footnotes to the U.S. Table in their abbreviated form without introducing the abbreviation.100 Therefore, we are making the following changes to five U.S. footnotes: (1) “e.r.p.” replaces “Effective Radiated Power (ERP)” in footnote US216; (2) “e.i.r.p.” replaces “eirp” in footnote US259; (3) “an e.i.r.p. of 40 dBW” replaces “a maximum equivalent isotropically radiated power of 40 dBW” in footnote US265; (4) “47 CFR part 15 or Chapter 7 of the NTIA Manual” replaces “Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission’s Rules and Regulations or Chapter 7 of the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s Manual of Regulations and Procedures for Federal Radio Frequency Management” in footnote US294; and (5) “50 watts e.r.p. and to” replaces “: (1) a maximum effective radiated power (e.r.p.) of 50 W; and, (2)” in footnote US381. 5. North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83) 61. Our review finds that while all of the coordinates listed in footnotes to the U.S. Table are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83), we do not consistently state this fact. As background, geographic coordinates are referenced to a specific geodetic datum, with NAD 83 and the North American Datum of 1927 (NAD 27) being among the most widely known in the United States.101 We note that footnotes U7, US117, US217, US222, US251, US311, US338, US346, US348, US351, US355, US361, US362, US378, US393, and US402 do not state the datum to which the coordinates are referenced.102 NTIA, based on its consultation with the relevant Federal agencies, concurs with our assessment that the coordinates listed in these footnotes are specified in terms of NAD 83.103 To provide clarity and to avoid potential confusion about the specific datum to which these coordinates are referenced, we are adding a new paragraph (d)(6) to Section 2.105, which will read as follows: The coordinates of latitude and longitude that are listed in United States, Federal, and non-Federal footnotes are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). For consistency, we are also removing the now superfluous reference to NAD 83 from footnotes US229, US230, US388, and NG172. 6. Region 2 Insular Areas 62. We take this opportunity to explicitly state that the use of the radio spectrum in the U.S. insular areas located in Region 2 is generally governed by the U.S. Table. That action leads us to the conclusion that listing all Region 2 insular areas in a single note to Section 2.105(a) would be helpful to the reader. Therefore, we are combining the information currently codified in note 2, which lists the Caribbean insular areas, with that currently codified in note 3, which lists the Pacific insular areas in Region 2. Accordingly, note 2 of Section 2.105(a) has been revised to read as follows: ² The operation of stations in the U.S. insular areas located in Region 2 are generally governed by the United States Table. The U.S. insular areas located in Region 2 are comprised of the Caribbean insular areas and two of the eleven Pacific insular areas. The Caribbean insular areas are Puerto Rico, the United 100 47 CFR § 2.1. 101 Geodetic datum is a set of constants specifying the coordinate system used for calculating the coordinates of points on the Earth. NAD 83 was developed based on satellite and remote-sensing measurement techniques, and provides greater accuracy than the older NAD 27. See http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/faq.shtml#WhatNAD for additional background and frequently asked questions about NAD 83. 102 By contrast, footnotes US229, US230, US388, and NG172 expressly state that the coordinates listed therein are specified in terms of the NAD 83. 103 This is consistent with Federal Government practice. We note that, in the Government Master File (GMF), coordinates are referenced to the World Geodetic Spheroid Code 84/National American Datum 83. See NTIA Manual, Chapter 9, which is titled “Preparation of Applications for Frequency Assignment Action,” at pages 9-31 (XLA), 9-32 (XLG), and 9-39 (RLA and RLG). Federal Communications Commission DA 08-530 23 States Virgin Islands, and Navassa Island. The Pacific insular areas located in Region 2 are Johnston Atoll and Midway Atoll. As a consequence of our merging notes 2 and 3, we renumber notes 4 through 6 in Section 2.105(a) as notes 3 through 5, respectively, and we renumber note 7 in Section 2.105(b) as note 6. IV. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES ACT REQUIREMENTS AND ORDERING CLAUSE 63. Parts 1, 2, 25, 73, 74, 90, and 97 of the Commission’s Rules are amended herein by incorporating non-substantive, editorial revisions only.104 Therefore, there is good cause for not using notice and comment procedure in this case, and for shortening the effective date of the amendments from a date not less than 30 days after publication in the Federal Register to the date of publication in the Federal Register. We find that the normal procedures for notice and comment and for publication as required under Section 553 of the Administrative Procedures Act would be impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. See 5 U.S.C. § 553(b)(3)(B), (d)(3); Kessler v. FCC, 326 F.2d 673 (D.C. Cir. 1963). 64. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Parts 1, 2, 25, 73, 74, 90, and 97 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. Parts 1, 2, 25, 73, 74, 90, and 97, ARE AMENDED as set forth in Appendix C, effective upon publication in the Federal Register. This action is taken pursuant to authority found in Sections 4(i) and 303 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 154(i) and 303, and in Sections 0.31, 0.231(b) and 0.241 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.31, 0.231(b) and 0.241. FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION _________________________________________ Julius P. Knapp Chief, Office of Engineering and Technology _________________________________________ Anthony Dale Managing Director 104 As an exception, the International Table, the Federal Table, and the FCC Rule Part(s) column within § 2.106 are included in the Commission's Rules for informational purposes only and are therefore exempt from the notice provisions of the Administrative Procedures Act. 24 Appendix A: Additional Changes Not Specifically Described in the Text (* denotes those changes that have already been implemented in the NTIA Manual) Affected Rule Change Remarks § 2.105(d) Deleted part of heading Deleted “and the Rule Part Cross Reference Column” because cross references are now described in § 2.105(e). § 2.105(d)(5)(iv) Revised “following” to read “followed” Revised rule reads as follows: “Any footnote consisting of the letter “G” followed by one or more digits…” § 2.106 (corrections to the Allocation Table): 1605-1615 kHz, Federal Table Added missing Federal footnote NTIA requests that footnote G127 (which implements a long-standing agreement concerning TIS station use of 1610 kHz) be added to the list of Federal footnotes and that a reference to G127 be added to the Federal Table. 9400-9500 kHz, U.S. Table Deleted 5.147 In the Below 28 MHz R&O, the Commission adopted US367 to provide for Federal fixed service use of the band 9400-9500 kHz on a non-interference basis, and thus, the more general international footnote is unneeded. 10100-10150 kHz, non-Federal Table Moved the reference to footnote US247 from the bottom of the cell to the right of AMATEUR. 25005-2850 kHz, U.S. Table Corrected footnote placement Moved reference to footnote US285 from the bottom of the cell to the right of Federal MOBILE and to the right of non-Federal MOBILE except aeronautical mobile. 806-890 MHz, Region 2 Table* Reference to footnote 5.317A is added to the right of “MOBILE.” 862-890 MHz, Region 1 Table* Added two missing footnote references to the International Table Reference to footnote 5.317A is added to the right of “MOBILE except aeronautical mobile.” 2310-2360 MHz, U.S. Table Corrected footnote placement Footnotes 5.396 and US327 are placed at the bottom of the cell because these footnotes apply to two services (i.e., the BSS and the broadcasting service). 2310-2360 MHz, Federal Table Deleted reference to footnote G120 Footnote G120 applies only to the band 2360-2390 MHz. Numerous bands; see Remarks Listed services in French alphabetic order Per § 2.104(h)(3), primary and secondary services in the International Table are listed in French alphabetic order. For consistency, services in the U.S. Table are also listed in French alphabetic order. In the U.S. Table: 525-535 kHz and 608-614 MHz. In the Federal Table: 1240-1300 MHz, 2700-2900 MHz, and 43.5-45.5 GHz.

(* denotes those changes that have already been implemented in the NTIA Manual) Affected Rule Change Remarks § 2.106 (corrections to the Allocation Table): 13.4-13.75 GHz, Federal Table* Deleted active limitation “SPACE RESEARCH (active) 5.501A” was corrected to read “SPACE RESEARCH 5.501A.” The active limitation was not requested by NTIA and is inconsistent with footnote 5.501A, which permits other space research uses on a secondary basis. 22.21-22.5 GHz, U.S. Table Listed footnotes in numeric order The footnotes at the bottom of the cell that represents the band 22.21-22.5 GHz were not listed in numeric order. Therefore, these footnotes are now shown as “US263 US342.” § 2.106 (changes to footnote text): 5.155 Revised “services” to read “service” Revised footnote reads as follows: “…the band 21850-21870 kHz is also allocated to the aeronautical mobile (R) service on a primary basis.” 5.237 Revised “Somali” to read “Somalia” Revised footnote reads as follows: “in…Somalia…, the band 174-223 MHz is also allocated to the fixed and mobile services on a secondary basis.” 5.339, 5.438, 5.462A, 5.469A, 5.476A Revised “earth” to read “Earth” The ITU capitalizes the word “Earth” in the term “Earth exploration-satellite service.” Also added missing degree symbols to 5.462A. US90 Revised “services” to read “service” Revised footnote reads as follows: “…from a space station in the space operation, Earth exploration- satellite, or space research service…” US93* Revised “not” to read “nor” The last sentence reads as follows: “VOR test facilities operating on 108 MHz will not be protected against interference caused by FM broadcasting stations operating in the band 88-108 MHz nor shall the authorization…” US99* Updated address Revised footnote reads as follows: “…to the Electromagnetic Management Unit, Room 1030, National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22230.”105 US116 Deleted expired grandfathering clause Deleted the second sentence, which read as follows: “Federal assignments [in the bands 890-902 MHz and 935-941 MHz] existing prior to July 10, 1970 to stations in Alaska may be continued.” US201 Corrected “power flux” to read “power flux-density” Revised the last sentence of the footnote to read as follows: “The power flux-density produced at the Earth’s surface by any space station in this band shall not exceed -152 dBW/m²/4 kHz.” US117, US346 Style Removed the word “footnote.” US216 Changed “are” to “is” and “transmitting” to “operating at” Revised the first sentence in paragraphs (a) and (b) to read as follows: (a) The use of the frequencies 150.775 MHz and 150.790 MHz is limited to mobile stations operating with a maximum e.r.p. of 100 watts. (b) The use of the frequencies 152.0075 MHz and 163.250 MHz is limited to base stations… US259 Clarity Revised “are restricted to operating powers of” to read “shall operate with an e.i.r.p. of ” US265* Added space Revised “-3dBW” to read “-3 dBW” US273, US290, US323, US335, NG53, NG56, NG144, NG160 Placed “band” before the specific frequency band instead of after it Consistent with ITU Radio Regulations. 105 See letter from Associate Administrator, Office of Spectrum Management, NTIA, to Chief, OET, dated April 19, 2006. 26 Appendix A: Additional Changes Not Specifically Described in the Text (cont.) (* denotes those changes that have already been implemented in the NTIA Manual) Affected Rule Change Remarks § 2.106 (changes to footnote text): US285 Revised “frequency” to read “frequencies” Revised footnote reads as follows: “Under exceptional circumstances, the carrier frequencies 2635 kHz, 2638 kHz, and 2738 kHz may be authorized to coast stations.” US308 Restructured footnote Revised “In the frequency bands … MHz, the Aeronautical-Mobile- Satellite (R) requirements that cannot be accommodated in the 1545-1549.5 MHz, … bands” to read “In the bands … MHz, those requirements of the aeronautical mobile-satellite (R) service that cannot be accommodated in the bands 1545-1549.5 MHz, …” US309 Listed band first In the first sentence, changed “Transmissions in the bands 1545-1559 MHz” to read “In the band 1545-1559 MHz, transmissions.” In the second sentence, took similar action. US310 Used abbreviation In the third sentence, introduced “power flux-density as “(pfd)” and used the abbreviation in the fourth sentence. US315, NG149, and NG158 Changed “frequency band” to read “band” Consistent with ITU Radio Regulations. US316 Placed “Federal” in the allocation sentence. Changed “… allocated on a primary basis to the meteorological aids service. Operations in this service are limited to Federal Next …” to read “… allocated to the meteorological aids service on a primary basis for Federal use. Operations in this service are limited to Next …” US324 Listed band first Changed “Federal and non-Federal satellite systems in the 400.15-401 MHz band …” to read “In the band 400.15-401 MHz, Federal and non-Federal satellite systems …” US342 Corrected “43.17” to read “42.87” Consistent with footnote 5.149, revised the band “42.77-43.17 GHz” to read “42.77-42.87 GHz,” which is a band that is used for spectral line observations.106 US397* Added “the” before “United States” Revised the second sentence to read as follows: “Stations in the Earth exploration-satellite service (active) shall not be operated within line-of-sight of the United States...” US399 Added effective date and used consistent terminology Replaced: (1) “[effective date of this order]” with “November 13, 2006” (twice); (2) replaced “47 CFR §” with “47 CFR;” (3) “Federal Government” with “Federal;” and (4) “non-Federal Government” with “non-Federal.” NG143 Added “No.” Changed “ITU Radio Regulation 5.488” and “5.488” to read “ITU Radio Regulation No. 5.488” and “No. 5.488” NG175 Simplified Revised to read “In the band 38.6-40 GHz, television pickup stations that were authorized on or before…” G2 and G31 Merged G31 into G2 Both footnotes limit Federal use of the radiolocation service to the military services, so merging the two serves to simplify the Federal Table. Footnote G2 is amended by adding the phrase “3300-3500 MHz (except as provided by footnote US108),” and the now unneeded footnote G31 is deleted. G133* Deleted mobile service The band 7190-7235 MHz is not allocated to the mobile service in the U.S. Second sentence revised to read as follows: “Geostationary satellites in the space research service operating in the band 7190-7235 MHz shall not claim protection from existing and future stations in the fixed service and ITU Radio Regulation No. 5.43A…”107 106 See letter from Associate Administrator, Office of Spectrum Management, NTIA, to Chief, OET, received November 23, 2004. 107 See letter from Associate Administrator, Office of Spectrum Management, NTIA, to (Acting) Chief, OET, dated September 8, 2005. 27 Appendix B: Updates to the FCC Rule Part Cross References in Column 6 of the Allocation Table Existing Band(s) Effect on Rule Part Cross Reference(s) Rule/Reason Result 160-190 kHz, 200-275 kHz Deleted “Aviation (87)” from 160-190 kHz & added it to 200-275 kHz Not listed in § 87.173 Aviation (87) is listed for the band 190-275 kHz 435-495 kHz Added “Aviation (87)” 457 kHz listed in § 87.173b Maritime (80) and Aviation (87) are listed for the band 405-505 kHz 535-1705 kHz Deleted “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” Added “Private Land Mobile (90)” Not listed in Part 74 § 90.242 TIS cross reference corrected 2194-2495 kHz, 74.6-74.8 MHz Deleted “Aviation (87)” Not listed in § 87.173 5900-5950 kHz, 9400-9500 kHz Deleted “Maritime (80)” § 2.106, footnote US366 (WARC-92 HFBC transition period has concluded) Bands not available to new non-Federal stations in the maritime service 26100-26480 kHz Added “Low Power Auxiliary (74H)” § 74.802(a) 54-72 MHz, 76-88 MHz, 174-216 MHz, 470-608 MHz, 614-806 MHz Replaced “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” with “LPTV, TV Translator/Booster (74G)” and “Low Power Auxiliary (74H)” §§ 74.702(a), 74.802(a) Specific subparts are listed. 75.4-76 MHz, 328.6-335.4 MHz, 2700-2900 MHz, 5460-5470 MHz, 8650-9000 MHz, 9300-9500 MHz Added “Aviation (87)” § 87.173b 88-108 MHz Replaced “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” with “FM Translator/ Booster (74L)” § 74.1202 Specific subpart is listed. 152.855-154 MHz, 157.45-161.575 MHz, 162.0125-173.2 MHz Replaced “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” with “Remote Pickup (74D)” § 74.402(a); 166.25 MHz and 170.15 MHz authorized per US11 Specific subpart is listed. 161.625-161.775 MHz, 450-451 MHz, 455-456 MHz Replaced “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” with “Low Power Auxiliary (74H)” § 74.802(a) Specific subpart is listed. 406-406.1 MHz Added “Maritime (80),” “Aviation (87),” and “Personal Radio (95)” Emergency beacons on ships (Part 80, Subpart V), in aircraft (§§ 87.173(b), 87.193-87.199) & on land (Part 95, Subpart K) 698-763 MHz, 775-793 MHz, 805-806 MHz Deleted “Private Land Mobile (90)” Not listed in Part 90 805-806 MHz Added “Wireless Communications (27)” Recently added to § 27.5(b) 941-944 MHz Added “Aural Broadcast Auxiliary (74E)” § 74.502(a), note 1 Recognizes use in Puerto Rico 944-952 MHz Replaced “Auxiliary Broadcasting (74)” with “Aural Broadcast Auxiliary (74E)” and “Low Power Auxiliary (74H)” §§ 74.502(a), 74.802(a) Specific subparts are listed. 28 Appendix B: Updates to the FCC Rule Part Cross References in Column 6 of the Allocation Table (cont.)

Section 1.924 is amended by revising paragraph (g)(1) to read as follows: § 1.924 Quiet zones. * * * * * (g) * * * (1) Applicants and licensees planning to construct and operate a new or modified station within the area bounded by a circle with a radius of 100 kilometers (62.1 miles) that is centered on 37° 56' 44'' N, 75° 27' 37'' W (Wallops Island) or 64° 58' 22'' N, 147° 30' 04'' W (Fairbanks) or within the area bounded by a circle with a radius of 65 kilometers (40.4 miles) that is centered on 39° 00' 02'' N, 76° 50' 29'' W (Greenbelt) must notify the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the proposed operation. For this purpose, NOAA maintains the GOES coordination web page at http://www.osd.noaa.gov/radio/frequency.htm, which provides the technical parameters of the earth stations and the point-of-contact for the notification. The notification shall include the following information: requested frequency, geographical coordinates of the antenna location, antenna height above mean sea level, antenna directivity, emission type, equivalent isotropically radiated power, antenna make and model, and transmitter make and model. * * * * * PART 2 – FREQUENCY ALLOCATIONS AND RADIO TREATY MATTERS; GENERAL RULES AND REGULATIONS 3. The authority citation for part 2 continues to read as follows: AUTHORITY: 47 U.S.C. 154, 302a, 303, and 336, unless otherwise noted. 4. Section 2.1 is amended by adding the terms “conterminous United States” and “insular area” in alphabetical order and by correctly the term “Radiolocation Mobil Station” to read “Radiolocation Mobile Station.” § 2.1 Terms and definitions. * * * * * (c) * * * * * * * * Conterminous United States. The contiguous 48 States and the District of Columbia. (FCC) * * * * * Insular Area. A jurisdiction that is neither a part of one of the several States nor a Federal district.

Section 2.105 is amended by revising paragraphs (a), (b), (d)(5)(iv), and (f); by adding new paragraph (d)(6); and by revising the heading to paragraph (d) to read as follows: § 2.105 United States Table of Frequency Allocations. (a) The United States Table of Frequency Allocations (United States Table) is subdivided into the Federal Table of Frequency Allocations (Federal Table, column 4 of § 2.106) and the non-Federal Table of Frequency Allocations (non-Federal Table, column 5 of § 2.106). The United States Table is based on the Region 2 Table because the relevant area of jurisdiction is located primarily in Region 2 1 (i.e., the 50 States, the District of Columbia, the Caribbean insular areas,2 and some of the Pacific insular areas).3 The Federal Table is administered by NTIA 4 and the non-Federal Table is administered by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).5 1 See 2.104(b) for definitions of the ITU Regions. 2 The operation of stations in the U.S. insular areas located in Region 2 is generally governed by the United States Table. The U.S. insular areas located in Region 2 are comprised of the Caribbean insular areas and two of the eleven Pacific insular areas. The Caribbean insular areas are Puerto Rico, the United States Virgin Islands, and Navassa Island. The Pacific insular areas located in Region 2 are Johnston Atoll and Midway Atoll. 3 The operation of stations in the Pacific insular areas located in Region 3 is generally governed by the Region 3 Table (i.e., column 3 of 2.106). The Pacific insular areas located in Region 3 are American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Baker Island, Howland Island, Jarvis Island, Kingman Reef, Palmyra Island, and Wake Island. 4 Section 305(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. See Public Law 102-538, 106 Stat. 3533 (1992). 5 The Communications Act of 1934, as amended. (b) In the United States, radio spectrum may be allocated to either Federal or non-Federal use exclusively, or for shared use. In the case of shared use, the type of service(s) permitted need not be the same [e.g., Federal FIXED, non-Federal MOBILE]. The terms used to designate categories of services and allocations 6 in columns 4 and 5 of § 2.106 correspond to the terms in the ITU Radio Regulations. 6 The radio services are defined in 47 CFR 2.1. * * * * * (d) Format of the United States Table. (1) * * * * * * * * (5) * * * * * * * * (iv) Any footnote consisting of the letter “G” followed by one or more digits, e.g., G2, denotes a stipulation applicable only to Federal operations. * * * (6) The coordinates of latitude and longitude that are listed in United States, Federal, and non-Federal footnotes are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). * * * * * (f) The FCC Online Table of Frequency Allocations is updated shortly after a final rule that amends § 2.106 is released. The address for the FCC Radio Spectrum Home Page, which includes the FCC Online Table and the FCC Allocation History File, is http://www.fcc.gov/oet/spectrum.
