ORDER OF MODIFICATION
Adopted:  August 24, 2010 Released:  August 24, 2010
By the Deputy Chief, Policy Division, Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau:
I. INTRODUCTION 
1. By this Order of Modification, we modify the licenses of the State of New York, Office for 
Technology (New York) for Private Land Mobile Radio (PLMR) stations WPLP920, WPWR391, 
WPJI660, and WQFG910 to reduce the Effective Radiated Power (ERP) of some of the base stations, 
authorized under the referenced call signs, on the frequencies listed in Attachment I.  We take this action 
in furtherance of ensuring compliance with international obligations and the Commission’s rules.
II. BACKGROUND.  
2. New York is licensed to operate 800 MHz PLMR stations WPLP920, WPWR391, WPJI660, 
and WQFG910 at numerous locations throughout the State of New York.  The base stations authorized 
under the referenced licenses are located within 140 kilometers of the border with Canada, and thus are 
subject to the provisions of the bilateral annex (Arrangement F) with Canada, which specifies the 
conditions under which 800 MHz PLMR stations may operate along the border.1 Under Arrangement F, 
the ERP of stations in the border region is limited as a function of the height of their transmitting 
antennas above mean sea level.  These ERP limits are codified in Section 90.619(c)(2) of the 
Commission’s rules.2  
3. On May 21, 2010, the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, acting under delegated 
authority, issued New York an Order Proposing Modification (OPM) which proposed reducing the ERP 
of certain base stations licensed under call signs WPLP920, WPWR391, WPJI660 and WQFG910.3 The 
  
1 See Arrangement Between the Dept. of Communications of Canada and the FCC of the United States Concerning 
the Use Along the US-Canada Border of the Band 806-890 MHz (Jan. 1994, addendum, Dec. 1994) (Arrangement 
F).  See also Arrangement Between the Dept. of Communications of Canada and the FCC of the United States 
Concerning the Use Along the US-Canada Border of the Bands 821-824 MHz and 866-869 MHz (Sep. 1990, 
addendum, Dec. 1994).

(OPM).

reductions in ERP proposed in the OPM was intended to bring these base stations into compliance with 
the ERP limits of Section 90.619(c)(2) of the Commission’s rules and Arrangement F.4 New York was 
afforded 30 days to respond to protest the OPM.5
III. DISCUSSION.  
4. Because New York failed to protest the proposed modifications of its licenses within 30 
days,6 it is deemed to have consented to the proposed modifications.7 Based on the record in this matter, 
we hereby modify the authorizations for PLMR Stations WPLP920, WPWR391, WPJI660, and 
WQFG910, as proposed in the OPM, to ensure compliance with international obligations and 
Commission rules.  See Attachment I.
5. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 4(i) and 316 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 154(i), 316, and Sections 1.87 and 90.619(c)(2) 
of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.87, 90.619(c)(2) that the licenses for Private Land Mobile 
Radio Service Stations WPLP920, WPWR391, WPJI660, and WQFG910, held by State of New York, 
Office for Technology, ARE HEREBY MODIFIED by reducing the Effective Radiated Power of the 
base station locations listed in Attachment I to the levels indicated in Attachment I to comply with 
Section 90.619(c)(2) of the Commission’s rules and Arrangement F.
6. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, that the Chief of the Licensing Branch, Policy Division, Public 
Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, SHALL CAUSE the records of the Commission’s Universal 
Licensing System for Private Land Mobile Radio Service Stations WPLP920, WPWR391, WPJI660, and 
WQFG910 to be modified consistent with this Order of Modification.
7. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this Order of Modification shall be sent by certified mail, 
return receipt requested, to State of New York, Office for Technology, 74 North Pearl Street 2nd Floor, 
Albany, NY 12207-2721.
