Accordingly, the corrections set forth herein shall be incorporated into the text of the Public Notice prior to such publication. 1. In Section I. B. 4, the last sentence in the fifth paragraph incorrectly included a reference to MSAs and RSAs and is corrected to read, “Potential bidders are strongly encouraged to physically inspect any sites located in or near the EAG for which they plan to bid.” 2. On March 25, 2002, the Mass Media and Cable Bureaus were merged to create the Media Bureau. Accordingly, references throughout the Public Notice to the Mass Media Bureau are updated to refer to the Media Bureau. In addition, in Section I. B. 4, the sixth paragraph’s reference to the former Mass Media Bureau’s Consolidated Data Base System (CDBS) is corrected to read “http:// www. fcc. gov/ mb/ databases/”, and the last paragraph’s reference to the former Mass Media Bureau’s e- mail address is corrected to read “mbinfo@ fcc. gov”. 3. Footnote 65 incorrectly referenced “47 C. F. R. Ch. 1, Subpart I” and is corrected to read “47 C. F. R. Part 1, Subpart I.” 4. Footnote 77 included an incorrect cross- reference to note 12, and therefore the sentence “See also note 12, above.” is deleted. 5. Footnote 80 incorrectly referenced “1.2110( b)( 5)” and is corrected to read “1.2110( c) 5.” 6. In Section IV. B. 3, the last sentence of the fourth paragraph is replaced with the following: “They therefore reflect what it would cost for a bid on any license (and therefore on any package containing that license) to be competitive with provisionally winning bids on packages of complementary licenses.” 1 See Auction of Licenses in the 747- 762 and 777- 792 MHz Bands Scheduled for June 19, 2002; Further Modification of Package Bidding Procedures and Other Procedures for Auction No. 31; DA 02- 659, Public Notice (rel. March 19, 2002). 1 7. Also in Section IV. B. 3, the following changes are made regarding the rounding of certain calculations: (i) Insert the following before the last sentence of the fifth paragraph: “The result will be rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.” (ii) In the sixth paragraph, the second sentence is changed to read as follows: “After the first round of the auction, part (iii) of the minimum acceptable bid rule for a global package will always be the revenue generated by the provisionally winning bid set in the previous round plus w%, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.” (iii) The first sentence of the eighth paragraph is changed to read as follows: “For bids higher than the minimum acceptable bid — i. e., multi- increment bids — we are defining the amount of the additional bid increments as v% of the minimum acceptable bid, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, where the minimum acceptable bid is determined as discussed above.” 8. In Section IV. B. 5, the first sentence of the third paragraph is changed to read as follows: “The last and best bid amount for any license or package is any amount, in thousand dollar increments, greater than or equal to the bidder’s previous high bid on the license or package and less than or equal to the eighth increment above the minimum acceptable bid for that license or package in the current round.” 9. In Footnote 173, the last sentence is corrected to read, “The minimum acceptable bid is the greatest of the three amounts.” 10. In Attachment E, the example at the bottom of page 4 incorrectly listed the year as “1998” and is corrected to read “1999”. 11. In Footnote 184, the last sentence referenced incorrect sections and is corrected to read “See generally Section IV. A. 2, Maximum Eligibility, and IV. A. 3, Activity Rules.” 12. In Attachment G, Section B, the fourth sentence of the last bullet is corrected to read as follows: “Each set of last and best bids may consist of bids on any or all of the licenses selected on the Form 175 and any or all of the packages created by the bidder, consistent with activity rules and the twelve package limitation.” 13. In Attachment G, Section C, the first sentence of the second bullet is corrected to read “… while renewed non- provisionally winning bids do not receive any bidding activity.” 14. In Attachment G, Section D, the fifth bullet is corrected to read, “The winning bids are the provisionally winning bids when the auction closes, provided that the total gross revenue of the provisionally winning set equals or exceeds the aggregate reserve price.” 15. In Attachment H, text formatting is corrected. A complete public notice that includes all the above corrections is available at http:// wireless. fcc. gov/ auctions.
