On October 15, 1997, the FCC adopted and released a Report and Order, ET Docket No. 96–2, FCC 97–347, that established a Coordination Zone for new and modified radio facilities in various communications services that cover the islands of Puerto Rico, Desecheo, Mona, Vieques, and Culebra within the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The coordination zone and notification procedures enable the Arecibo Radio Astronomy Observatory to receive information needed to assess whether an applicant’s proposed operations will cause harmful interference to the Arecibo Observatory’s operations, which also promotes efficient resolution of coordination problems between the applicants and the Arecibo Observatory. The Observatory will perform interference evaluations at no cost to the applicants. If potential interference problems are identified, applicants are required to make reasonable attempts to resolve or mitigate such problems in order to protect the Observatory.
