Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
This document makes nonsubstantive, editorial revisions to the
Table of Frequency Allocations
(Allocation Table) and to various other
Commission rules. The purpose of this
action is to update the International
Table of Frequency Allocations
(International Table) to reflect the
decisions made at an international
conference, to update the Federal Table
of Frequency Allocations (Federal
Table) within the Commission’s rules in
those frequency bands where such an
action would have no substantive effect
on non-Federal licensees, to remove
outdated provisions from the
Commission’s rules, and to ensure that
the Allocation Table and related rules
are consistent with the Commission’s
decisions in recent rulemaking
proceedings.
DATES: Effective July 27, 2020.

Synopsis
ORDER
1. By this action, the Commission
amends parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27, and 95 of
its rules to make non-substantive,
editorial revisions to the Allocation
Table and to revise various other rules.

This action is not intended to modify or
otherwise change any party’s underlying
rights and/or responsibilities. In
particular, the Commission updates the
International Table within the
Allocation Table to reflect, for
informational purposes only, the
decisions made at the World
Radiocommunication Conference 2015
(WRC–15). In addition, the Commission
makes certain amendments to the
Federal Table, for informational
purposes only, based on the
recommendations of the National
Telecommunications and Information
Administration (NTIA), which pertain
solely to spectrum allocated exclusively
for Federal use or where non-Federal
use is limited to secondary services.
WRC–15 implementation matters of a
substantive nature will be addressed in
a separate notice of proposed
rulemaking.
DISCUSSION
A. Reflecting WRC–15 Revisions in the
International Table
2. The Commission updates the
International Table within section 2.106
of the rules to reflect Article 5, Section
IV of the Radio Regulations (Edition of
2016), except where minor corrections
or updates have been made. The
International Table is included within
the Commission’s Allocation Table for
informational purposes only.
B. Reflecting WRC–15 Revisions in the
U.S. Table
References to International Footnotes in
the U.S. Table
3. The United States Table of
Frequency Allocations (U.S. Table)
includes references to ten international
footnotes (5.134, 5.223, 5.260, 5.268,
5.287, 5.327A, 5.443B, 5.396, 5.501A,
and 5.511C), which WRC–15 revised or
deleted. Because these footnotes are
included in the U.S. Table, the
Commission reviewed these footnotes
and finds that the WRC–15 revisions
will have no substantive effect on nonFederal operations. Specifically, the
Commission:
• Removes the references to
international footnotes 5.223 and 5.260
from the U.S. Table because WRC–15
removed these international footnotes
and the underlying primary
radionavigation-satellite service
allocation from the 149.9–150.05 MHz
and 399.9–400.05 MHz bands from the
Radio Regulations, making the
references to these international
footnotes in the U.S. Table no longer
necessary.
• Revises international footnotes
5.327A and 5.443B by updating the
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
cross references from Resolution 417
(Rev.WRC–12) and Resolution 741
(Rev.WRC–12), respectively, to the
version of these resolutions that are
currently shown in the Radio
Regulations, i.e., ‘‘(Rev.WRC–15).’’ As
noted above, the Commission is also
updating cross references to Resolution
517 (Rev.WRC–07) and Resolution 33
(Rev.WRC–03) contained in footnotes
5.134 and 5.396, respectively. WRC–15
made editorial changes to the text of
these resolutions. The revised text of
these international footnotes can be
used in the U.S. Table since the changes
do not have a substantive impact on
non-Federal operations.
• Revises international footnote 5.268
by removing the extra-vehicular activity
(EVA) and five-kilometer restrictions
from Federal space research service
(SRS) operations in the 410–420 MHz
band. Because non-Federal stations in
the 410–420 MHz band don’t have a coprimary status, they ‘‘cannot claim
protection from harmful interference
from stations of a primary service to
which frequencies are already assigned
or may be assigned at a later date,’’ and
thus, applying the text that WRC–15
adopted for footnote 5.268 is a nonsubstantive, editorial action.
• Updates the text of international
footnote 5.287 to reflect the changes
adopted by WRC–15, noting that this
footnote was revised to specify the
frequency bands that are available for
on-board communication stations in the
maritime mobile service and to state
that the ‘‘characteristics of the
equipment and the channelling
arrangement shall be in accordance with
Recommendation ITU–R M.1174–3.’’
These changes increase the number of
available frequencies from the existing
ten to 34 and also could be
misinterpreted as requiring the use of a
channeling plan different from that
currently used in U.S. territorial waters,
which is shown in footnote US288. As
a result, because footnote 5.287 appears
in the 456–470 MHz range in the U.S.
Table, the Commission moves the preWRC–15 text of footnote 5.287 into
placeholder footnote US287 so that
these changes to the international
footnote can be considered by the
Commission in its planned WRC–15
implementation notice of proposed
rulemaking. Consequently, the
Commission also amends the respective
frequency bands in the U.S. Table by
replacing the reference to footnote 5.287
with that of footnote US287.
Revisions to the Federal Table
4. In this section, the Commission
addresses the modifications NTIA made
to certain Federal allocations for
E:\FR\FM\26JNR3.SGM
26JNR3
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES3
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 124 / Friday, June 26, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
purposes of implementing the WRC–15
Final Acts, which were submitted to the
Commission on September 10, 2018. In
line with NTIA’s changes, the
Commission revises the Federal Table in
its rules to reflect, for informational
purposes only, changes to the following
bands that are allocated exclusively for
Federal use: 7190–7250 MHz, 7300–
7750 MHz and 14.5–14.8 GHz; and the
following bands with primary Federal
allocations that contain only secondary
non-Federal allocations: 1215–1240
MHz and 13.4–13.75 GHz. Specifically,
the Commission:
• Adds to the Federal Table a primary
allocation for the Earth explorationsatellite service (EESS) (Earth-to-space)
in the 7190–7250 MHz band and two
international footnotes (5.460A, 5.460B)
that limit the use of this EESS uplink
allocation. Footnote 5.460A limits the
EESS uplink allocation to tracking,
telemetry and command for the
operation of spacecraft, and, e.g.,
specifies that space stations operating
under this allocation in the 7190–7250
MHz band may not claim protection
from stations in the fixed and mobile
services. Footnote 5.460B states that
EESS geostationary satellites receiving
in the 7190–7235 MHz band may not
claim protection from existing and
future stations of the space research
service. The Commission also replaces
footnote G133 with international
footnote 5.460.
• Adds to the Federal Table a primary
allocation for the maritime mobilesatellite service (MMSS) (space-to-Earth)
in the 7375–7750 MHz bands and two
international footnotes (5.461AA,
5.461AB) that limit the use of this
MMSS downlink allocation. Footnote
5.461AA limits MMSS use of the band
to geostationary-satellite orbit (GSO)
networks and footnote 5.461AB
specifies that MMSS earth stations
receiving in the band may not claim
protection from, nor constrain the use
and development of, stations in the
fixed and mobile, except aeronautical
mobile, services. In addition, the
Commission replaces the existing
secondary mobile-satellite service
(space-to-Earth) allocation entry in the
7375–7750 MHz band with a secondary
mobile-satellite ‘‘except maritime
mobile-satellite’’ service (space-to-Earth)
allocation entry, and in the 7375–7450
MHz band, the Commission also adds a
primary mobile except aeronautical
mobile service allocation.
• Adds to the Federal Table
international footnote 5.509G to the
right of the existing secondary space
research service (SRS) allocation entry
in the 14.5–14.8 GHz band. Footnote
5.509G states that the 14.5–14.8 GHz
VerDate Sep<11>2014
22:32 Jun 25, 2020
Jkt 250001
band is also allocated to SRS on a
primary basis, limited to satellite
systems operating in the Earth-to-space
(uplink) direction to relay data to space
stations in the geostationary-satellite
orbit (GSO) from associated earth
stations; that primary stations in the
SRS may not cause harmful interference
to, or claim protection from, stations
operating under the fixed, mobile, and
fixed-satellite services; and that other
uses of this frequency band by the SRS
are on a secondary basis.
• Updates footnote G132, which
applies to the 1215–1240 MHz band, to
cross reference the revised Resolution
608, replacing ‘‘(WRC–03)’’ with
‘‘(Rev.WRC–15).’’ WRC–15 revised
Resolution 608 (WRC–03) by noting that
Recommendation ITU–R M.1902 and
Report ITU–R M.2284 apply to
radionavigation-satellite service (spaceto-Earth) use of the 1215–1300 MHz
band.
• Subjects the use of the existing
primary Federal space research service
(SRS) allocation in the 13.4–13.75 GHz
band to new international footnotes
5.499C and 5.499D as well as modified
footnote 5.501A. Because footnote
5.501B limits the impact of the space
research service (active) in the band on
the radiolocation service and the only
non-Federal licensee in the band is in
the radiolocation service, the
Commission finds that this action is
non-substantial.
Other Revisions to the U.S. Table
5. The Commission makes the
following non-substantive, editorial
changes to the U.S. Table and to FCC
Rule part cross references within section
2.106 of the rules:
• Update footnote NG159 to remove
the reference to part 74, subpart E,
because the aural broadcast auxiliary
stations are no longer licensed to
operate on frequencies in the 698–806
MHz band, which has been reallocated
and licensed for mobile broadband use.
• Add footnote US84 to the 941–944
MHz band in the Federal Table, which
was inadvertently omitted when the
Commission revised footnote US84 by
adding the 941.5–944 MHz band.
• Add footnote NG527A to the 10.7–
11.7 GHz band, which was
inadvertently omitted from the nonFederal Table of Frequency Allocations
(non-Federal Table) when the footnote
was adopted in the ESIMs Report and
Order and Further Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking.
• Delete the entries for EESS
(passive), SRS (passive), and footnotes
5.562B, 5.562F, and 5.562G from the
155.5–158.5 GHz band. The transition
period concluded in 2018, and these
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4701

two allocations and three footnotes are
no longer needed.
• Update the contact information for
the National Science Foundation in
footnotes US99 and US385 and sections
27.1321(b) and 95.2309(f)(3) of the
Commission’s Rules.
• Revise the FCC Rule Part(s) column
of the Allocation Table by adding a part
15 cross reference (i.e., ‘‘RF Devices
(15)’’) to the 902–928 MHz, 2400–2483.5
MHz, 5850–5925 MHz, 28.35–29.1 GHz,
and 84–86 GHz bands; by removing the
part 15 cross reference from the 29.1–
29.25 GHz and 45.5–46.9 GHz bands;
and by adding a part 101 cross reference
(i.e., ‘‘Fixed Microwave (101)’’) to the
84–86 GHz band.
C. Other Conforming Rule Revisions
6. The Commission makes the
following non-substantive, editorial
updates to the Commission’s rules:
• Correct sections 1.1307(b)(2)(ii),
2.1091(c)(2), and 2.1093(c)(1) of the
rules by revising the cross reference to
section 15.255 from paragraph ‘‘(g)’’ to
‘‘(f).’’ This action reflects the paragraph
re-designation adopted in the Spectrum
Frontiers 1st R&O.
• Revise section 2.100 to note that the
International Table has been updated to
reflect the 2016 edition of the Radio
Regulations.
• Revise section 2.101 to reflect
Section I of Article 2 of the Radio
Regulations. Specifically, the
Commission deletes the column titled
‘‘Metric abbreviations for the bands’’
from the table in section 2.101, and also
delete the duplicate table from that
section.
• Revise sections 2.102 and 2.105 by
replacing the archaic term ‘‘band(s) of
frequencies’’ with ‘‘frequency band(s).’’
• Revise section 2.104 to state that the
international footnotes shown in the
International Table are applicable only
to the relationships between the United
States and other countries (unless a
reference to an international footnote
has been added to the U.S. Table).
• Revise the text in section
2.105(d)(2) without changing its
underlying meaning or implication.
Also revise the factual description in
section 2.105(e) of the informational
cross references that appear in column
6 of the Table of Allocations set out in
section 2.106. The revision would
recognize that the column 6 cross
references sometimes include a
reference to an FCC Rule subpart
instead of an FCC Rule part and that an
FCC Rule part or subpart may apply to
only a portion of a frequency band.
Finally, the Commission adds the
following clarifying note: The radio
frequency devices authorized pursuant
E:\FR\FM\26JNR3.SGM
26JNR3
38632
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 124 / Friday, June 26, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
to 47 CFR part 15 are not based on
allocated radio services. In the
Allocation Table, the cross references to
part 15 are used to note those frequency
bands that are most typically associated
with unlicensed use.
• Revise section 2.107 to cross
reference the international notification
requirements of radio astronomy
stations, specified in No. 11.12 of
Article 11 and Annex 2 of Appendix 4
of the Radio Regulations.
• Correct a typographical error in the
heading of section 15.510 to provide
consistency with paragraphs (b) and (c).
• Revise section 18.301 by replacing
‘‘allocated’’ with ‘‘designated’’ in the
second sentence, simplifying the
display of three ISM frequencies (i.e.,
remove unnecessary commas from 2,450
MHz and 5,800 MHz and change 24,125
MHz to 24.125 GHz) in the table, and by
deleting the note below the table. The
Commission takes these actions to make
this rule more consistent with
international footnote 5.150 and to
remove an unneeded and outdated cross
reference.
Paperwork Reduction Act Analysis
7. This document does not contain
new or modified information collection
requirements subject to the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), Public
Law 104–13. In addition, therefore, it
does not contain any new or modified
information collection burden for small
business concerns with fewer than 25
employees, pursuant to the Small
Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002,
Public Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(4).
Administrative Procedure Act
Requirements
9. The Commission amends parts 1, 2,
15, 18, 27, and 95 of the Commission’s
rules herein by incorporating nonsubstantive, editorial revisions only.
Therefore, there is good cause for not
employing the notice and comment
procedure in this case. Specifically, the
Commission finds that the normal
procedures for notice and comment and
for publication as required under
section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act would be impracticable,
unnecessary, or contrary to the public
interest. See 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B);
Kessler v. FCC, 326 F.2d 673 (D.C. Cir.
1963).
Ordering Clause
10. It is ordered that parts 1, 2, 15, 18,
27, and 95 of the Commission’s rules, 47
CFR parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27, and 95, are
amended as set forth in the Appendix
of the Order, effective 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register.
This action is taken pursuant to
authority found in sections 4(i) and 303
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i) and 303, and
in sections 0.11, 0.31, 0.231(b) and
0.241(i) of the Commission’s Rules, 47
CFR 0.11, 0.31, 0.231(b) and 0.241(i).
11. Petitions for reconsideration
under 47 CFR 1.429 or applications for
review by the Commission under 47
CFR 1.115 may be filed within 30 days
after publication in the Federal
Register. Should no petitions for
reconsideration or applications for
review be timely filed, this proceeding
shall be terminated, and its docket
closed.

■
§ 2.102
Assignment of frequencies.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in
this section, the assignment of
frequencies and frequency bands to all
stations and classes of stations and the
licensing and authorizing of the use of
all such frequencies between 8.3 kHz
and 275 GHz, and the actual use of such

(1) The frequency band referred to in
each allocation, column 4 for Federal
operations and column 5 for nonFederal operations, is indicated in the
left-hand top corner of the column. If
there is no service or footnote indicated
for a frequency band in column 4, then
the Federal sector has no access to that
band except as provided for by § 2.103.
If there is no service or footnote
indicated for a frequency band in
column 5, then the non-Federal sector
has no access to that band except as
provided for by § 2.102.

(2) When the type of service(s)
permitted and any applicable footnote(s)
are the same for a frequency band in the
Federal Table and the non-Federal
Table, columns 4 and 5 are merged,
indicating that the frequency band is
shared between the Federal and nonFederal sectors under the same
conditions.

(e) Rule part cross-references. If a
frequency or frequency band has been
allocated to a radiocommunication
service in the non-Federal Table, then a
cross reference may be added to the
pertinent FCC Rule part (column 6 of
§ 2.106) or, where greater specificity
would be useful, to the pertinent
subpart. For example, the band 849–851
MHz is allocated to the aeronautical
mobile service for non-Federal use,
rules for the use of the 849–851 MHz
band have been added to part 22—

and Viet Nam, the allocation to the fixed
service in the frequency band 31–31.3 GHz
may also be used by systems using high
altitude platform stations (HAPS) in the
ground-to-HAPS direction. The use of the
frequency band 31–31.3 GHz by systems
using HAPS is limited to the territory of the
countries listed above and shall not cause
harmful interference to, nor claim protection
from, other types of fixed-service systems,
systems in the mobile service and systems
operated under No. 5.545. Furthermore, the
development of these services shall not be
constrained by HAPS. Systems using HAPS
in the frequency band 31–31.3 GHz shall not
cause harmful interference to the radio
astronomy service having a primary
allocation in the frequency band 31.3–31.8
GHz, taking into account the protection
criterion as given in the most recent version
of Recommendation ITU–R RA.769. In order
to ensure the protection of satellite passive
services, the level of unwanted power
density into a HAPS ground station antenna
in the frequency band 31.3–31.8 GHz shall be
limited to ¥106 dB(W/MHz) under clear-sky
conditions, and may be increased up to ¥100
dB(W/MHz) under rainy conditions to
mitigate fading due to rain, provided the
effective impact on the passive satellite does
not exceed the impact under clear-sky
conditions. See Resolution 145 (Rev.WRC–
12). (WRC–15)

band 42.5–43.5 GHz by all space stations in
any non-geostationary-satellite system in the
fixed-satellite service (space-to-Earth), or in
the broadcasting-satellite service operating in
the frequency band 42–42.5 GHz, shall not
exceed the following values at the site of any
radio astronomy station for more than 2% of
the time:
¥230 dB(W/m2) in 1 GHz and ¥246 dB(W/
m2) in any 500 kHz of the frequency band
42.5–43.5 GHz at the site of any radio
astronomy station registered as a singledish telescope; and
¥209 dB(W/m2) in any 500 kHz of the
frequency band 42.5–43.5 GHz at the site
of any radio astronomy station registered as
a very long baseline interferometry station.
These epfd values shall be evaluated using
the methodology given in Recommendation
ITU–R S.1586–1 and the reference antenna
pattern and the maximum gain of an antenna
in the radio astronomy service given in
Recommendation ITU–R RA.1631–0 and
shall apply over the whole sky and for
elevation angles higher than the minimum
operating angle qmin of the radiotelescope
(for which a default value of 5° should be

adopted in the absence of notified
information).
These values shall apply at any radio
astronomy station that either:
—was in operation prior to 5 July 2003 and
has been notified to the Bureau before 4
January 2004; or
—was notified before the date of receipt of
the complete Appendix 4 information for
coordination or notification, as
appropriate, for the space station to which
the limits apply.
Other radio astronomy stations notified
after these dates may seek an agreement with
administrations that have authorized the
space stations. In Region 2, Resolution 743
(WRC–03) shall apply. The limits in this
footnote may be exceeded at the site of a
radio astronomy station of any country
whose administration so agreed. (WRC–15)

SUMMARY: This document makes non-substantive, editorial revisions to
the Table of Frequency Allocations (Allocation Table) and to various
other Commission rules. The purpose of this action is to update the
International Table of Frequency Allocations (International Table) to
reflect the decisions made at an international conference, to update
the Federal Table of Frequency Allocations (Federal Table) within the
Commission's rules in those frequency bands where such an action would
have no substantive effect on non-Federal licensees, to remove outdated
provisions from the Commission's rules, and to ensure that the
Allocation Table and related rules are consistent with the Commission's
decisions in recent rulemaking proceedings.

Synopsis
ORDER
1. By this action, the Commission amends parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27,
and 95 of its rules to make non-substantive, editorial revisions to the
Allocation Table and to revise various other rules. This action is not
intended to modify or otherwise change any party's underlying rights
and/or responsibilities. In particular, the Commission updates the
International Table within the Allocation Table to reflect, for
informational purposes only, the decisions made at the World
Radiocommunication Conference 2015 (WRC-15). In addition, the
Commission makes certain amendments to the Federal Table, for
informational purposes only, based on the recommendations of the
National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA),
which pertain solely to spectrum allocated exclusively for Federal use
or where non-Federal use is limited to secondary services. WRC-15
implementation matters of a substantive nature will be addressed in a
separate notice of proposed rulemaking.
DISCUSSION
A. Reflecting WRC-15 Revisions in the International Table
2. The Commission updates the International Table within section
2.106 of the rules to reflect Article 5, Section IV of the Radio
Regulations (Edition of 2016), except where minor corrections or
updates have been made. The International Table is included within the
Commission's Allocation Table for informational purposes only.
B. Reflecting WRC-15 Revisions in the U.S. Table
References to International Footnotes in the U.S. Table
3. The United States Table of Frequency Allocations (U.S. Table)
includes references to ten international footnotes (5.134, 5.223,
5.260, 5.268, 5.287, 5.327A, 5.443B, 5.396, 5.501A, and 5.511C), which
WRC-15 revised or deleted. Because these footnotes are included in the
U.S. Table, the Commission reviewed these footnotes and finds that the
WRC-15 revisions will have no substantive effect on non-Federal
operations. Specifically, the Commission:
Removes the references to international footnotes 5.223
and 5.260 from the U.S. Table because WRC-15 removed these
international footnotes and the underlying primary radionavigation-
satellite service allocation from the 149.9-150.05 MHz and 399.9-400.05
MHz bands from the Radio Regulations, making the references to these
international footnotes in the U.S. Table no longer necessary.
Revises international footnotes 5.327A and 5.443B by
updating the cross references from Resolution 417 (Rev.WRC-12) and
Resolution 741 (Rev.WRC-12), respectively, to the version of these
resolutions that are currently shown in the Radio Regulations, i.e.,
``(Rev.WRC-15).'' As noted above, the Commission is also updating cross
references to Resolution 517 (Rev.WRC-07) and Resolution 33 (Rev.WRC-
03) contained in footnotes 5.134 and 5.396, respectively. WRC-15 made
editorial changes to the text of these resolutions. The revised text of
these international footnotes can be used in the U.S. Table since the
changes do not have a substantive impact on non-Federal operations.
Revises international footnote 5.268 by removing the
extra-vehicular activity (EVA) and five-kilometer restrictions from
Federal space research service (SRS) operations in the 410-420 MHz
band. Because non-Federal stations in the 410-420 MHz band don't have a
co-primary status, they ``cannot claim protection from harmful
interference from stations of a primary service to which frequencies
are already assigned or may be assigned at a later date,'' and thus,
applying the text that WRC-15 adopted for footnote 5.268 is a non-
substantive, editorial action.
Updates the text of international footnote 5.287 to
reflect the changes adopted by WRC-15, noting that this footnote was
revised to specify the frequency bands that are available for on-board
communication stations in the maritime mobile service and to state that
the ``characteristics of the equipment and the channelling arrangement
shall be in accordance with Recommendation ITU-R M.1174-3.'' These
changes increase the number of available frequencies from the existing
ten to 34 and also could be misinterpreted as requiring the use of a
channeling plan different from that currently used in U.S. territorial
waters, which is shown in footnote US288. As a result, because footnote
5.287 appears in the 456-470 MHz range in the U.S. Table, the
Commission moves the pre-WRC-15 text of footnote 5.287 into placeholder
footnote US287 so that these changes to the international footnote can
be considered by the Commission in its planned WRC-15 implementation
notice of proposed rulemaking. Consequently, the Commission also amends
the respective frequency bands in the U.S. Table by replacing the
reference to footnote 5.287 with that of footnote US287.
Revisions to the Federal Table
4. In this section, the Commission addresses the modifications NTIA
made to certain Federal allocations for
[[Page 38631]]
purposes of implementing the WRC-15 Final Acts, which were submitted to
the Commission on September 10, 2018. In line with NTIA's changes, the
Commission revises the Federal Table in its rules to reflect, for
informational purposes only, changes to the following bands that are
allocated exclusively for Federal use: 7190-7250 MHz, 7300-7750 MHz and
14.5-14.8 GHz; and the following bands with primary Federal allocations
that contain only secondary non-Federal allocations: 1215-1240 MHz and
13.4-13.75 GHz. Specifically, the Commission:
Adds to the Federal Table a primary allocation for the
Earth exploration-satellite service (EESS) (Earth-to-space) in the
7190-7250 MHz band and two international footnotes (5.460A, 5.460B)
that limit the use of this EESS uplink allocation. Footnote 5.460A
limits the EESS uplink allocation to tracking, telemetry and command
for the operation of spacecraft, and, e.g., specifies that space
stations operating under this allocation in the 7190-7250 MHz band may
not claim protection from stations in the fixed and mobile services.
Footnote 5.460B states that EESS geostationary satellites receiving in
the 7190-7235 MHz band may not claim protection from existing and
future stations of the space research service. The Commission also
replaces footnote G133 with international footnote 5.460.
Adds to the Federal Table a primary allocation for the
maritime mobile-satellite service (MMSS) (space-to-Earth) in the 7375-
7750 MHz bands and two international footnotes (5.461AA, 5.461AB) that
limit the use of this MMSS downlink allocation. Footnote 5.461AA limits
MMSS use of the band to geostationary-satellite orbit (GSO) networks
and footnote 5.461AB specifies that MMSS earth stations receiving in
the band may not claim protection from, nor constrain the use and
development of, stations in the fixed and mobile, except aeronautical
mobile, services. In addition, the Commission replaces the existing
secondary mobile-satellite service (space-to-Earth) allocation entry in
the 7375-7750 MHz band with a secondary mobile-satellite ``except
maritime mobile-satellite'' service (space-to-Earth) allocation entry,
and in the 7375-7450 MHz band, the Commission also adds a primary
mobile except aeronautical mobile service allocation.
Adds to the Federal Table international footnote 5.509G to
the right of the existing secondary space research service (SRS)
allocation entry in the 14.5-14.8 GHz band. Footnote 5.509G states that
the 14.5-14.8 GHz band is also allocated to SRS on a primary basis,
limited to satellite systems operating in the Earth-to-space (uplink)
direction to relay data to space stations in the geostationary-
satellite orbit (GSO) from associated earth stations; that primary
stations in the SRS may not cause harmful interference to, or claim
protection from, stations operating under the fixed, mobile, and fixed-
satellite services; and that other uses of this frequency band by the
SRS are on a secondary basis.
Updates footnote G132, which applies to the 1215-1240 MHz
band, to cross reference the revised Resolution 608, replacing ``(WRC-
03)'' with ``(Rev.WRC-15).'' WRC-15 revised Resolution 608 (WRC-03) by
noting that Recommendation ITU-R M.1902 and Report ITU-R M.2284 apply
to radionavigation-satellite service (space-to-Earth) use of the 1215-
1300 MHz band.
Subjects the use of the existing primary Federal space
research service (SRS) allocation in the 13.4-13.75 GHz band to new
international footnotes 5.499C and 5.499D as well as modified footnote
5.501A. Because footnote 5.501B limits the impact of the space research
service (active) in the band on the radiolocation service and the only
non-Federal licensee in the band is in the radiolocation service, the
Commission finds that this action is non-substantial.
Other Revisions to the U.S. Table
5. The Commission makes the following non-substantive, editorial
changes to the U.S. Table and to FCC Rule part cross references within
section 2.106 of the rules:
Update footnote NG159 to remove the reference to part 74,
subpart E, because the aural broadcast auxiliary stations are no longer
licensed to operate on frequencies in the 698-806 MHz band, which has
been reallocated and licensed for mobile broadband use.
Add footnote US84 to the 941-944 MHz band in the Federal
Table, which was inadvertently omitted when the Commission revised
footnote US84 by adding the 941.5-944 MHz band.
Add footnote NG527A to the 10.7-11.7 GHz band, which was
inadvertently omitted from the non-Federal Table of Frequency
Allocations (non-Federal Table) when the footnote was adopted in the
ESIMs Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.
Delete the entries for EESS (passive), SRS (passive), and
footnotes 5.562B, 5.562F, and 5.562G from the 155.5-158.5 GHz band. The
transition period concluded in 2018, and these two allocations and
three footnotes are no longer needed.
Update the contact information for the National Science
Foundation in footnotes US99 and US385 and sections 27.1321(b) and
95.2309(f)(3) of the Commission's Rules.
Revise the FCC Rule Part(s) column of the Allocation Table
by adding a part 15 cross reference (i.e., ``RF Devices (15)'') to the
902-928 MHz, 2400-2483.5 MHz, 5850-5925 MHz, 28.35-29.1 GHz, and 84-86
GHz bands; by removing the part 15 cross reference from the 29.1-29.25
GHz and 45.5-46.9 GHz bands; and by adding a part 101 cross reference
(i.e., ``Fixed Microwave (101)'') to the 84-86 GHz band.
C. Other Conforming Rule Revisions
6. The Commission makes the following non-substantive, editorial
updates to the Commission's rules:
Correct sections 1.1307(b)(2)(ii), 2.1091(c)(2), and
2.1093(c)(1) of the rules by revising the cross reference to section
15.255 from paragraph ``(g)'' to ``(f).'' This action reflects the
paragraph re-designation adopted in the Spectrum Frontiers 1st R&O.
Revise section 2.100 to note that the International Table
has been updated to reflect the 2016 edition of the Radio Regulations.
Revise section 2.101 to reflect Section I of Article 2 of
the Radio Regulations. Specifically, the Commission deletes the column
titled ``Metric abbreviations for the bands'' from the table in section
2.101, and also delete the duplicate table from that section.
Revise sections 2.102 and 2.105 by replacing the archaic
term ``band(s) of frequencies'' with ``frequency band(s).''
Revise section 2.104 to state that the international
footnotes shown in the International Table are applicable only to the
relationships between the United States and other countries (unless a
reference to an international footnote has been added to the U.S.
Table).
Revise the text in section 2.105(d)(2) without changing
its underlying meaning or implication. Also revise the factual
description in section 2.105(e) of the informational cross references
that appear in column 6 of the Table of Allocations set out in section
2.106. The revision would recognize that the column 6 cross references
sometimes include a reference to an FCC Rule subpart instead of an FCC
Rule part and that an FCC Rule part or subpart may apply to only a
portion of a frequency band. Finally, the Commission adds the following
clarifying note: The radio frequency devices authorized pursuant
[[Page 38632]]
to 47 CFR part 15 are not based on allocated radio services. In the
Allocation Table, the cross references to part 15 are used to note
those frequency bands that are most typically associated with
unlicensed use.
Revise section 2.107 to cross reference the international
notification requirements of radio astronomy stations, specified in No.
11.12 of Article 11 and Annex 2 of Appendix 4 of the Radio Regulations.
Correct a typographical error in the heading of section
15.510 to provide consistency with paragraphs (b) and (c).
Revise section 18.301 by replacing ``allocated'' with
``designated'' in the second sentence, simplifying the display of three
ISM frequencies (i.e., remove unnecessary commas from 2,450 MHz and
5,800 MHz and change 24,125 MHz to 24.125 GHz) in the table, and by
deleting the note below the table. The Commission takes these actions
to make this rule more consistent with international footnote 5.150 and
to remove an unneeded and outdated cross reference.
Paperwork Reduction Act Analysis
7. This document does not contain new or modified information
collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), Public Law 104-13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain
any new or modified information collection burden for small business
concerns with fewer than 25 employees, pursuant to the Small Business
Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(4).
Congressional Review Act
8. The Commission has determined, and the Administrator of the
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, concurs that this rule is non-major under the Congressional
Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The Commission will send a copy of this
Order to Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
Administrative Procedure Act Requirements
9. The Commission amends parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27, and 95 of the
Commission's rules herein by incorporating non-substantive, editorial
revisions only. Therefore, there is good cause for not employing the
notice and comment procedure in this case. Specifically, the Commission
finds that the normal procedures for notice and comment and for
publication as required under section 553 of the Administrative
Procedure Act would be impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the
public interest. See 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B); Kessler v. FCC, 326 F.2d
673 (D.C. Cir. 1963).
Ordering Clause
10. It is ordered that parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27, and 95 of the
Commission's rules, 47 CFR parts 1, 2, 15, 18, 27, and 95, are amended
as set forth in the Appendix of the Order, effective 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register. This action is taken pursuant to
authority found in sections 4(i) and 303 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i) and 303, and in sections 0.11, 0.31,
0.231(b) and 0.241(i) of the Commission's Rules, 47 CFR 0.11, 0.31,
0.231(b) and 0.241(i).
11. Petitions for reconsideration under 47 CFR 1.429 or
applications for review by the Commission under 47 CFR 1.115 may be
filed within 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Should
no petitions for reconsideration or applications for review be timely
filed, this proceeding shall be terminated, and its docket closed.

6. Section 2.102 is amended by revising paragraph (a) to read as
follows:
Sec. 2.102 Assignment of frequencies.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this section, the assignment of
frequencies and frequency bands to all stations and classes of stations
and the licensing and authorizing of the use of all such frequencies
between 8.3 kHz and 275 GHz, and the actual use of such frequencies for
radiocommunication or for any other purpose, including the transfer of
energy by radio, shall be in accordance with the Table of Frequency
Allocations in Sec. 2.106.
* * * * *

7. Section 2.104 is amended by adding paragraph (h)(8) to read as
follows:
Sec. 2.104 International Table of Frequency Allocations.
* * * * *
(h) * * *
(8) The international footnotes shown in the International Table
are applicable only to the relationships between the United States and
other countries (unless a reference to an international footnote has
been added to the United States Table of Frequency Allocations).
* * * * *
0
8. Section 2.105 is amended by revising paragraphs (d)(1) and (2) and
(e) to read as follows:
Sec. 2.105 United States Table of Frequency Allocations.
* * * * *
(d) * * *
(1) The frequency band referred to in each allocation, column 4 for
Federal operations and column 5 for non-Federal operations, is
indicated in the left-hand top corner of the column. If there is no
service or footnote indicated for a frequency band in column 4, then
the Federal sector has no access to that band except as provided for by
Sec. 2.103. If there is no service or footnote indicated for a
frequency band in column 5, then the non-Federal sector has no access
to that band except as provided for by Sec. 2.102.
(2) When the type of service(s) permitted and any applicable
footnote(s) are the same for a frequency band in the Federal Table and
the non-Federal Table, columns 4 and 5 are merged, indicating that the
frequency band is shared between the Federal and non-Federal sectors
under the same conditions.
* * * * *
(e) Rule part cross-references. If a frequency or frequency band
has been allocated to a radiocommunication service in the non-Federal
Table, then a cross reference may be added to the pertinent FCC Rule
part (column 6 of Sec. 2.106) or, where greater specificity would be
useful, to the pertinent subpart. For example, the band 849-851 MHz is
allocated to the aeronautical mobile service for non-Federal use, rules
for the use of the 849-851 MHz band have been added to part 22--Public
Mobile Services (47 CFR part 22), and a cross reference, Public Mobile
(22), has been added in column 6 of Sec. 2.106. The exact use that can
be made of any given frequency or frequency band (e.g., channeling
plans, allowable emissions, etc.) is given in the FCC Rule part(s) so
indicated. The FCC Rule parts in this column are not allocations, may
apply to only a portion of a band, and are provided for informational
purposes only. This column also may contain explanatory notes for
informational purposes only.
Note 1 to paragraph (e): The radio frequency devices authorized
pursuant to 47 CFR part 15 are not based on allocated radio
services. In the Allocation Table, the cross references to part 15
are used to note those frequency bands that are most typically
associated with unlicensed use.
