Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions, and
state, local or tribal government.

Needs and Uses: Applicants wishing
to locate co-channel systems less than
70 miles from an existing system
operating on the same channel may do
so upon request. If the requested
distance falls within the parameters of
the Short-Spacing Separation Table
pursuant to the Commission’s rules, the
applicant must provide certain
information about the co-channel
stations, but no waiver of the short
spacing rules is required. If the request
is for distances less than those
prescribed in the Short-Spacing
Separation Table, a waiver of the short
spacing rules is required. Incumbent
licensees seeking to utilize an 18 dBu
V/M signal strength interference contour
(see 47 CFR 90.693), and that are
unsuccessful in obtaining the consent of
affected co-channel incumbents, may
submit to any certified frequency
coordinator of 800 MHz band channels,
an engineering study showing that
interference will not occur, together
with proof that the incumbent licensee
has sought consent. The incumbent may
then provide to the Commission in their
modification applications, a statement
from a certified frequency coordinator
that no harmful interference will occur
to a co-channel licensee. The
Commission will use the information to
determine whether to grant licenses to
applicants whose systems do not satisfy
mileage separation requirements.
Without this information, the
Commission would deny the
applications. After this 60 day comment
period, the Commission will submit this
information collection to OMB in order
to seek the full three year clearance.
