Compatibility Analysis
The following general equation will be
used to calculate the received interference
power at the input of a receiver: 24
PR = PT + GT + GR ¥ LP ¥ LT ¥ LR ¥
LC ¥ LA ¥ LPol ¥ FDR (1)
where:
PT is the transmitter power (dBm);
EIRP is the equivalent isotropically radiated
power of the transmitter (dBm); GT is the
transmitter antenna gain in the direction
of the receiver (dBi);
GR is the receiver antenna gain in the
direction of the receiver (dBi); LP is the
basic transmission loss, in the absence of
clutter (dB);
LT is the transmitter cable/insertion losses
(dB); LR is the receiver cable/insertion
losses (dB); LC is the clutter loss (dB);
LA is the atmospheric loss (dB);
LPol is the polarization loss (dB); and
FDR is the Frequency Dependent Rejection
(dB)
The compatibility analysis only considers
single-entry interference. If operators
mutually agree to do so, they may consider
aggregate interference.
The computed receiver interference power
will be compared to interference criteria to
determine whether there is compatibility.
The operators may exchange the interference
threshold exceedance once the analysis is
complete.
The amount in dB that the calculated
interference from Equation 1 exceeds the
interference criteria specified in Table 2 will
be exchanged between the Federal and nonfederal users.
Antenna Models
Measured antenna patterns are preferred
and should be used whenever available; in
their absence, the operators may use modeled
antenna patterns provided by the
manufacturer, or a model that estimates the
antenna pattern.25
Propagation Model
To calculate the propagation loss, operators
may mutually agree to apply proprietary
propagation models, actual measurement
data, or other environmental data, consistent
with good engineering practices. Both
operators must agree on and accept the
results of the analysis performed using the
agreed-upon methodology. The Phase 2
coordination analysis should not consider
worst-case conditions unless otherwise
justified.
Coordinating parties may consider the use
of open-source propagation models such as
ITM and ITU–R P.676.26 Annex 1 of this
document contains the suggested propagation
model inputs and application descriptions.
Clutter Loss Model
The operators may mutually agree to use
proprietary clutter loss and building height
databases. Operators may also consider using
ITU–R P.2108, an open-source statistical
clutter loss model.
Variation Acceptance in Analysis Results
Using the methodology in this document,
it is possible for both operators to produce
different analysis results if they choose to
implement each model individually.
Therefore, the operators are encouraged to
exchange analysis results to resolve
differences. The FCC and NTIA will establish
a dispute resolution process through which
operators can discuss their analyses and
adjudicate disputes through NTIA and the
FCC.
Annex 1
This section provides a brief description of
public models that can be used to calculate
propagation loss, LP in equation 1. The
models herein assume all operations are
outdoor and all transmitters and receivers
have fixed antenna heights.
ITM + ITU R P. 676
Application
This model might be used to calculate the
propagation loss for paths in suburban and
rural environments. ITM requires an array of
terrain elevations as an input. A terrain
database and terrain elevation extraction
methods will be required to obtain the terrain
elevations. ITM only considers bare-earth
obstruction without any building, vegetation
or other material clutter losses.

SUMMARY:
AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) regulations, GSA invites the
public to comment on a request to
review and approve an extension of a
previously approved information
collection requirement regarding
Hazardous Material Information.

25 For an active Advanced Antenna System (AAS)
in the lower 37 GHz band ITU–R M.2101 contains
a possible antenna model for a single element and
composite pattern. For non-AAS, ITU–R F.1336
may be considered.
26 ITU–R P.452 is another open-source
propagation model that can be implemented if both
parties agree to it.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose
The Federal Hazardous Substance Act
and Hazardous Material Transportation
Act prescribe standards for packaging of
hazardous substances. To meet the
requirements of the Acts, the General
Services Administration Regulation
prescribes provision 552.223–72,
Hazardous Material Information, to be
inserted in solicitations and contracts
that provides for delivery of hazardous
materials on a Free On Board (FOB)
origin basis.
This information collection will be
accomplished by means of the provision
which requires the contractor to identify
for each National Stock Number (NSN),
the DOT Shipping Name, Department of
Transportation (DOT) Hazards Class,
and whether the item requires a DOT
label. Contracting Officers and technical
personnel use the information to
monitor and ensure contract

requirements based on law and
regulation.
Properly identified and labeled items
of hazardous material allows for
appropriate handling of such items
throughout GSA’s supply chain system.
The information is used by GSA, stored
in an NSN database and provided to
GSA customers. Non-Collection and/or
a less frequently conducted collection of
the information resulting from GSAR
provision 552.223–72 would prevent the
Government from being properly
notified. Government activities may be
hindered from notifying their employees
of; (1) All hazards to which they may be
exposed; (2) Relative symptoms and
appropriate emergency treatment; and
(3) Proper conditions and precautions
for safe use and exposure.
B. Annual Reporting Burden
Respondents: 563.
Responses per Respondent: 3.
Total Responses: 1,689.
Hours per Response: .5.
Total Burden Hours: 844.5.
C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary, whether it will
have practical utility; whether our
estimate of the public burden of this
collection of information is accurate,
and based on valid assumptions and
methodology; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and ways in
which we can minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, through the use of
appropriate technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.
