Title: Amendment of the
Commission’s Rules Regarding the 37.0–
38.6 GHz and 38.6–40.0 GHz Bands,
Third Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-
profit, not-for-profit institutions, and
state, local, or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 700
(approximately 4 applicants for each of
the 175 license areas).
Estimated Time Per Response: 300
hours per auction bidder.
Frequency of Response: Every 10 year
reporting requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 2,100 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $315,000.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
proposes to issue geographic area
licenses for the 37.0–38.6 GHz band, or
in the alternative, seeks comment on the
possibility of using a first-come, first-
served link-by-link registration
approach comparable to the 70/80/90
GHz Report and Order. In that
proceeding, the Commission decided to
issue non-exclusive nationwide licenses
conditioned upon site and path-specific
coordination wherein many service
providers would engineer their systems
to operate in close proximity, without
causing mutual interference. In order to
facilitate such coordination, the
Commission adopted non-interference
requirements and required all licensees
to register their facilities in a database
accessible to other licensees on a first-
come, first-served basis. Although the
Commission determined not to impose
a limit to the number of non-exclusive
nationwide licenses, licensees would be
required to construct individual links
within 12 months after registering them.
Our goal is to establish a flexible
regulatory framework that would
promote seamless deployment of a host
of services and technologies in the 73
GHz and 42 GHz bands. We seek to
enhance opportunities for deployment
of broadband wireless services, foster
effective competition, promote
innovation and further our efforts for
consistent rule application regarding
broadband wireless services.
