Washington, D.C. 20554 News Media Information 202 / 418-0500 Internet: http://www.fcc.gov TTY: 1-888-835-5322 DA 12-1453 Released: September 6, 2012 PUBLIC SAFETY AND HOMELAND SECURITY BUREAU SEEKS COMMENT ON REQUEST FOR WAIVER FILED BY SOMERSET COUNTY, NEW JERSEY TO UPGRADE ITS PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM BY MODIFYING ITS SITES AND ADDING FREQUENCIES IN THE TELEVISION CHANNEL 19 (500-506 MHZ) BAND AND A PART 22 FREQUENCY File Nos. 0004598355, 0004598366, 0004598374, 0004598382, 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, 0004994929 Comment Date: September 20, 2012 Reply Comment Date: September 27, 2012 The Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau seeks comment on four applications for television spectrum and an associated waiver request,1 and four applications for Part 22 spectrum and an associated waiver request2 filed by Somerset County, New Jersey (Somerset or the County). Somerset seeks waiver relief, pursuant to Section 1.925 of the Commission’s rules,3 to permit its use of certain UHF television channels4 and unassigned Part 22 paging control channels in the UHF ‘T-Band.’5 Specifically, Somerset seeks to “modify current licenses to adjust parameters, including new directional antenna patterns, and add additional frequencies at new or existing sites that are more than 50 miles from 1 See File No. 0004983388 (filed December 7, 2011, modification of Station WIK392), File No. 0004993152 (filed December 15, 2011, modification of Station WIK355), File No. 0004994418 (filed December 16, 2011, modification of Station WIL900) and File No. 0004994929 (filed December 16, 2011, modification of Station WPVM588).

We note that File Nos. 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, and 0004994929 replaced four applications previously associated with the TV Waiver Request, File Nos. 0004624208, 0004624213, 0004625897, 0004625899 (filed February 22, 2011, amended November 3, 2011 and November 4, 2011), which have been dismissed at the request of Somerset. 2 See File No. 0004598355 (filed February 1, 2011); File No. 0004598366 (filed February 1, 2011, modification of Station WPPB311), File No. 0004598374 (filed February 1, 2011, modification of Station WQBL367), and File No. 0004598382 (filed February 1, 2011, modification of Station WQBL360). See also associated attachments Request for Waiver (Part 22 Waiver Request), In Support Of Somerset County, NJ Part 22 UHF Frequency Waiver Request (Part 22 Waiver Support). 3 See 47 C.F.R. § 1.925. 4 TV Waiver Request at 1. 5 Part 22 Waiver Request at 1. 2Philadelphia.”6 Somerset is proposing to add eight new Part 90 frequency pairs, six of which are in the television (TV) Channel 19 band (500-506 MHz),7 and one Part 22 frequency,8 to its existing licenses. Somerset requests waiver of Sections 22.621, 22.651, 90.303, 90.305(a), 90.307(d), 90.309 and 90.311 to permit use of the proposed frequencies as part of the County’s public safety radio communications system.9 Somerset has also updated its request in light of recent developments involving the 470-512 MHz band (T-Band), which we summarize herein.10 Somerset states that “[i]n order to license certain frequencies at Green Brook, Verizon, Mountain Top and Bernards Township Water Tank sites it is necessary for the Commission to extend its waiver of §90.305 in regard to use of Channel 19 frequencies outside the 50 mile limit imposed by the Rules.”11 The County also states that “other Somerset sites in this area have previously been waivered.”12 The TV Channel 19 band is available for private land mobile radio service (PLMRS) entities, including public safety entities, in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania urbanized area.13 Because the proposed frequencies are not available for use by PLMRS entities in the Northern New Jersey area, the County seeks a waiver of Section 90.305(a).14 This rule provides that base station transmitter sites must be located within 80 kilometers (50 miles) from the geographic center of an urbanized area listed in Section 90.303.15 Somerset proposes to operate in an area less than ninety miles from the adjacent TV Channel 18 Station WMBC, Montclair, New Jersey, as a result it requests a waiver of Section 90.307(d).16 6 TV Waiver Request at 1. Somerset is adding 7 new base stations ranging from 69.806 kilometers to 101.596 kilometers from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania coordinates. Somerset is also using 12 existing base stations ranging from 68.380 kilometers to 97.659 kilometers from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania coordinates. See File Nos. 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, and 0004994929. 7 The Part 90 frequencies are 477/480.4500, 477/480.7750, 500/503.3250, 500/503.8000, 500/503.9500, 501/504.6750, 502/505.5250, and 502/505.5500 MHz. See File Nos. 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, and 0004994929. Somerset does not need a waiver of any rules for frequencies 477/480.4500 and 477/480.7750 MHz because frequencies within the TV Channel 15 band are available to the private land mobile radio service in the New York/Northeast New Jersey urbanized area, where Somerset is located. See 47 C.F.R. §§ 90.303, 90.305(a). The remaining six frequencies are in the TV Channel 19 band and are subject to the TV Waiver Request. 8 The Part 22 frequency is 473.1375 MHz. See also File Nos. 0004598355, 0004598366, 0004598374 and 0004598382. 9 See supra note 4, 5. See also 47 C.F.R. §§ 22.621, 22.651, 90.303, 90.305(a), 90.307(d), 90.309, 90.311. Somerset also would need a waiver of 47 C.F.R. §§ 20.9(a)(6) and 22.623(b). Since frequency 473.1375 MHz is listed only in § 22.651, a waiver of § 22.621 is unnecessary. 10 See File Nos. 0004598355, 0004598366, 0004598374, 0004598382, 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, and 0004994929, attachment entitled, Request for Waiver (filed May 02, 2012) (Freeze Waiver Request). 11 TV Waiver Support at 3. 12 Id. 13 See 47 C.F.R. §§ 90.303, 90.305(a). 14 See TV Waiver Request at 1. 15 See 47 C.F.R. §§ 90.303, 90.305(a). 16 See TV Waiver Request at 1. See also 47 C.F.R. § 90.307(d). A land mobile base station which has associated mobile units must be separated from a protected adjacent channel television station by a minimum distance of 145 kilometers (90 miles). Somerset’s 7 new base stations would range from 33.910 kilometers to 60.561 kilometers from Station WMBC. Somerset’s 12 existing base stations range from 32.329 kilometers to 62.454 kilometers from Station WMBC. 3In support of its four applications for television spectrum, Somerset obtained concurrences from Stations WPPZ550, MIC Talk, Inc.; WPMU674 and WIM582, Northampton County, PA; WIL678, Monmouth County; WQBH754, KEF776 and WPYP906, Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority; and WQMG213, Home Box Office.17 Somerset also entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Mountain Broadcasting Corporation, the licensee of Station WMBC.18 The Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials International, Inc., an FCC-certified frequency advisory committee, coordinated Somerset’s Part 90 applications.19 In two of these applications, Somerset seeks a waiver of Section 90.311(a)(2) of the Commission’s rules20 because the frequency pair 477.7750/480.7750 MHz is allocated to the Business Radio Service.21 The County states that the “channel is licensed to two business entities, WQOF281, Laing Electronics in Nassau County, NY and [WPXS787], Repeater Network, LLC, Pomona, NY.”22 Somerset states that these licenses “are separated from the closest proposed Somerset site by 98 and 79 km respectively,”23 ,so that “the separation between those users and the proposed Somerset sites also exceeds the 64 km normally applied as minimum separation between co-channel users.”24 In support of the waiver, Somerset notes that it “has for many years operated on another channel (501/505.9125 MHz) shared with business licensees.”25 Somerset further notes that frequency pair 477.7750/480.7750 MHz already supports multiple categories of users because Lancaster County, Pennsylvania is authorized on this channel for public safety operations.26 17 See File Nos. 0004983388, 0004993152, 0004994418, and 0004994929, attachment, Somerset County, NJ, Exhibit D, Letters of Concurrence: Letter from Elizabeth R.

This rule provides that once a channel in the 470-512 MHz band is assigned in a given urbanized area (as listed and defined in 47 C.F.R. §§ 90.303, 90.305), subsequent authorizations to use the channel within the same urbanized area will be granted only to users of the same category.

See Seven Public Safety Agencies in the New York Metropolitan Area, Order, 19 FCC Rcd 15355 (WTB PSCID 2004). 33 See licenses for Stations WPVM588, WIL900, WIK355, and WIK392. Stations WPVM588 and WIL900 have nearly identical conditions, as follows: “Grant of this Waiver is subject to the conditions that your base stations: (1) may not cause harmful interference to co-and adjacent channel TV reception within the grade B contour of any channel 20 (506-512 MHZ) TV station; (2) must accept any interference from TV stations operating in accordance with their [station] authorizations; and (3) may not cause harmful interference to TV reception of [TV] stations authorized in accordance with the digital television (DTV) table established in advanced television systems and their impact upon the existing television broadcast service, MM Docket No. 87-268, Memorandum Opinion and Order on Reconsideration of the sixth Report and Order, FCC98-24 (Rel. Feb. 23, 1998).” Station WIK355 is conditioned as follows: “Authorized by waiver of rule 90.305(a) granted 2-2-90.” There are no special conditions on Station WIK392. 34 Part 22 Waiver Support at 1. 35 Part 22 Waiver Support at 2. 36 TV Waiver Request at 2. 5Somerset further states that Public Safety Pool channels in the UHF band “are not available to meet the County’s requirements, and the additional channels requested can be used without causing interference to existing licensees.”37 With respect to the 700 MHz band, the County states that while some 700 MHz channels are available, these channels “are not compatible with the existing, established county-wide system.”38 Hence, Somerset asserts that the use of 700 MHz would cause “a far greater expense and hardship than could be reasonably imposed on any governmental entity and its local funding base.”39 Somerset also states that it has explored the possibility of adding public safety pool channels in the 450-512 MHz band, but concludes that “no channels [are] available.”40 We note that the Commission requires private land mobile radio licensees in the 150-174 MHz and 450-470 MHz bands to narrowband from 25 kilohertz to 12.5 kilohertz bandwidth by no later than January 1, 2013.41 Somerset holds several licenses in these frequency ranges that are currently operating in wideband mode and narrowband mode.42 Somerset states that it “is upgrading and expanding its radio system to meet growing demands and to comply with the commission’s narrowbanding requirements.”43 The County asserts that its “plan is designed to be fully implemented by January, 2013, at which time all channels will be operating in the 12.5 kHz narrowband mode.”44 We seek comment on whether the Commission should consider the applicant’s current progress in achieving this requirement or other measures of spectrum efficiency when determining whether or not the public interest supports the instant waiver request pursuant to rule Section 1.925. On April 26, 2012, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (Bureaus) issued a public notice announcing a limited suspension of the acceptance and processing of certain applications for Part 22 and Part 90 services operating in the 470- 512 MHz spectrum band (T-Band)45 that could alter the spectrum landscape. The purpose of the suspension is to stabilize the spectral environment while the Commission considers issues surrounding future use of the T-Band and implementation of the Spectrum Act.46 Specifically, the Bureaus will not 37 Id. at 1. 38 Part 22 Waiver Support at 2.

The Suspension Notice provides that applicants may have recourse to the waiver provisions in Section 1.925 to request an exception to the filing and processing suspension.48 Accordingly, Somerset filed a request for waiver of the Suspension Notice.49 Somerset states that while its “applications include a request for additional T-Band channels,” the “grant of the applications would also lead to a reduction in the coverage contours of the County’s current system, and a net reduction in the number of sites operating in the T-Band.”50 Somerset states that its “system requires a number of upgrades to improve capacity, efficiency and reliability.”51 Somerset asserts that “[i]n some cases, new 12.5 kHz offset channels are requested to avoid co-channel interference with another licensee, the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), which has completed the narrowbanding of its radio system.”52 Furthermore, Somerset states that “[a]dditional capacity is also needed to alleviate regular system overloads and to accommodate the many local public safety agencies that have moved, or intend to move, to the County’s multi-agency, interoperable radio system.”53 Somerset reiterates that it has no reasonable alternative and argues that “[t]here are no other 450-512 MHz Public Safety Pool channels available, and frequencies from other bands would be incompatible with the County’s existing infrastructure and mobile/portable radios.”54 Somerset concludes that “the applications do not expand the coverage area” and “the net result of the pending applications is a reduction, rather than an expansion, of the County’s service area.”55 We seek comment on Somerset’s request for waiver of the Suspension Notice.
