extent possible. The most important of
these rules imposes responsibility on
the interfering carriers to remedy
interference in a timely manner.
In the long-term, the Commission
concluded that the entire 800 MHz band
must be restructured. Band restructuring
or reconfiguration refers to spectrally
segregating public safety and ESMR
operators as far as technically possible.
To this end, Nextel Communications
Inc. (Nextel) will secure a $2.5 billion
letter (letters) of credit to pay for band
reconfiguration. Without Nextel’s
support, public safety licensees could
not afford the costs of relocating their
systems. This information collection
includes the following requirements: (1)
Prior notification; (2) electronic
database; (3) response to interference
complaints; (4) clear and imminent
danger; (5) relocation agreements; and
(6) Transition Administrator.
The information collection
requirements and third party disclosure
requirements will be used by the
Commission to ensure that Cellular/
ESMR, Public Safety, Critical
Infrastructure Industry (CII), and other
800 MHz licensees comply with
interference mitigation and frequency
relocation requirements in an orderly,
timely, comprehensive fashion with no
unnecessary delay.

COMMISSION
[WT Docket No. 02–55; DA 05–1546]
NPSPAC Regions Assigned to Wave 1
and Specific 800 MHz Reconfiguration
Benchmark Compliance Dates
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: As part of the 800 MHz band
reconfiguration process, the
Commission stated that it would issue a
public notice thirty days before
reconfiguration is scheduled to start in
each NPSPAC region. Each such public
notice will specify a three-month
voluntary negotiation period during
which time identified licensees in the
regions being reconfigured are
encouraged to reach agreement with
Nextel on the details of relocating. The
voluntary negotiation period would be
followed by a three-month mandatory
negotiation period, if necessary. The
Commission also stated that it would
freeze the filing of certain 800 MHz
applications for the regions being
reconfigured when it issued a public
notice announcing the date when
voluntary negotiation of relocation
agreements must be concluded. The
Commission explained that this freeze is
necessary in order to maintain a stable
spectral landscape during the
reconfiguration process in each region.
Finally, the Commission noted that the
start date for reconfiguration in the first
NPSPAC region will also be the start
date for computation of two interim
reconfiguration benchmarks (eighteen
and thirty months) and the start date for
determining when reconfiguration must
be completed (thirty-six months).
DATES: This notice announces that 800
MHz band reconfiguration shall
commence on June 27, 2005.
