Non-Substantive Revisions to the Table of Frequency Allocations

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document revises the Table of Frequency Allocations 
(``Table''). This action is necessary in order to more clearly display 
the Table and to assist the Federal Register staff by making easier for 
them to maintain the Table in the Code of Federal Regulations. The 
intended effect of this action is to present the Table in a clearer 
manner, thereby assisting the public in making decisions about the 
radio spectrum.

DATES: Effective January 31, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tom Mooring, Office of Engineering and 
Technology, (202) 418-2450.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a summary of the Commission's 
Memorandum Opinion and Order, DA 99-2743, adopted December 16, 1999, 
and released December 20, 1999. The full text of this Commission 
decision is available for inspection and copying during normal business 
hours in the FCC Reference Center (Room TW-A257), 445 12th Street, 
S.W., Washington, D.C., and is available on the FCC's Internet site at 
www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering__Technology__Orders/1999. The document 
also may be purchased from the Commission's duplication contractor,

Summary of the Order

    1. By this action, the Commission's Office of Engineering and 
Technology and Office of Managing Director amends the Table and 
supporting sections of the Commission's rules in order to more clearly 
display the Table and to assist the Federal Register staff by making it 
easier for them to maintain the Table in the Code of Federal 
Regulations. We take this action with the concurrence of the National 
Telecommunications and Information Administration. We also take this 
opportunity to make the following types of non-substantive amendments:
     The International Table in the Commission's rules is 
updated to reflect the [International] Table of Frequency Allocations 
as it is found in the 1998 International Telecommunication Union Radio 
Regulations;
     International footnotes in the United States Table that 
have not been substantively revised are re-numbered;
     Expired footnotes or portions of footnotes are removed 
from the United States Table;
     The special-use frequencies column of the Table is 
removed; and
     Various typographical errors and omissions are corrected.
As a by-product of this action, we will now be able to place the Table 
on the Commission's web site and to update the on-line Table shortly 
after any amendments to the Table have been released.\1\ This 
ministerial action does not make any substantive change to any 
licensee's legal rights and responsibilities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The on-line Table may be found at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/spectrum/. We caution users of the on-line Table that the Table as 
published by Federal Register remains the legal source document.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. Part 2 of the Commission's rules, IS AMENDED as set forth, 
effective upon 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 Secs. 0.31, 0.231(b) and 0.241 of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 
0.31, 0.231(b) and 0.241.

Rule Changes

    Part 2 of title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations is amended as 
follows:

PART 2--FREQUENCY ALLOCATIONS AND RADIO TREATY MATTERS; GENERAL 
RULES AND REGULATIONS

    1. The authority citation for part 2 continues to read as follows:

    Authority: 47 U.S.C. 154, 302, 303, 307, 336 and 337, unless 
otherwise noted.

    2. Paragraph 2.100 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 2.100  International regulations in force.

    The provisions of the Radio Regulations (Geneva, 1998) apply 
provisionally as from January 1, 1999, unless an earlier date is 
specified in Article S59.

    3. Section 2.104 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 2.104  International Table of Frequency Allocations.

    (a) The International Table of Frequency Allocations is subdivided 
into the Region 1 Table (column 1 of Sec. 2.106), the Region 2 Table 
(column 2 of Sec. 2.106), and the Region 3 Table (column 3 of 
Sec. 2.106). The International Table is included for informational 
purposes only.
    (b) Regions. For the allocation of frequencies the International 
Telecommunication Union (ITU) has divided the world into three Regions 
\1\ as shown in Figure 1 of this section and described as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ It should be noted that where the words ``regions'' or 
``regional'' are without a capital ``R,'' they do not relate to the 
three Regions here defined for purposes of frequency allocation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (1) Region 1. Region 1 includes the area limited on the east by 
line A (lines A, B and C are defined below) and on the west by line B, 
excluding any of the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran which 
lies between these limits. It also includes the whole of the territory 
of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russian Federation, Georgia, Kazakstan, 
Mongolia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Turkey and 
Ukraine and the area to the north of Russian Federation which lies 
between lines A and C.
    (2) Region 2. Region 2 includes the area limited on the east by 
line B and on the west by line C.
    (3) Region 3. Region 3 includes the area limited on the east by 
line C and on the west by line A, except any of the territory of 
Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russian Federation, Georgia, Kazakstan, Mongolia, 
Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Turkey and Ukraine 
and the area to the north of Russian Federation. It also includes that 
part of the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran lying outside of 
those limits.
    (4) The lines A, B and C are defined as follows:
    (i) Line A. Line A extends from the North Pole along meridian 
40 deg. East of Greenwich to parallel 40 deg. North; thence by great 
circle arc to the intersection of meridian 60 deg. East and the Tropic 
of Cancer; thence along the meridian 60 deg. East to the South Pole.
    (ii) Line B. Line B extends from the North Pole along meridian 
10 deg. West of Greenwich to its intersection with parallel 72 deg. 
North; thence by great circle arc to the intersection of meridian 
50 deg. West and parallel 40 deg. North; thence by great circle arc to 
the intersection of meridian 20 deg. West and parallel 10 deg.

[[Page 4637]]

South; thence along meridian 20 deg. West to the South Pole.
    (iii) Line C. Line C extends from the North Pole by great circle 
arc to the intersection of parallel 65 deg. 30' North with the 
international boundary in Bering Strait; thence by great circle arc to 
the intersection of meridian 165 deg. East of Greenwich and parallel 
50 deg. North; thence by great circle arc to the intersection of 
meridian 170 deg. West and parallel 10 deg. North; thence along 
parallel 10 deg. North to its intersection with meridian 120 deg. West; 
thence along meridian 120 deg. West to the South Pole.
    (c) Areas. To further assist in the international allocation of the 
radio spectrum, the ITU has established five special geographical areas 
and they are defined as follows:
    (1) The term ``African Broadcasting Area'' means:
    (i) African countries, parts of countries, territories and groups 
of territories situated between the parallels 40 deg. South and 30 deg. 
North;
    (ii) Islands in the Indian Ocean west of meridian 60 deg. East of 
Greenwich, situated between the parallel 40 deg. South and the great 
circle arc joining the points 45 deg. East, 11 deg. 30' North and 
60 deg. East, 15 deg. North; and
    (iii) Islands in the Atlantic Ocean east of line B, situated 
between the parallels 40 deg. South and 30 deg. North.
    (2) The ``European Broadcasting Area'' is bounded on the west by 
the western boundary of Region 1, on the east by the meridian 40 deg. 
East of Greenwich and on the south by the parallel 30 deg. North so as 
to include the northern part of Saudi Arabia and that part of those 
countries bordering the Mediterranean within these limits. In addition, 
Iraq, Jordan and that part of the territory of Syria, Turkey and 
Ukraine lying outside the above limits are included in the European 
Broadcasting Area.
    (3) The ``European Maritime Area'' is bounded to the north by a 
line extending along parallel 72 deg. North from its intersection with 
meridian 55 deg. East of Greenwich to its intersection with meridian 
5 deg. West, then along meridian 5 deg. West to its intersection with 
parallel 67 deg. North, thence along parallel 67 deg. North to its 
intersection with meridian 32 deg. West; to the west by a line 
extending along meridian 32 deg. West to its intersection with parallel 
30 deg. North; to the south by a line extending along parallel 30 deg. 
North to its intersection with meridian 43 deg. East; to the east by a 
line extending along meridian 43 deg. East to its intersection with 
parallel 60 deg. North, thence along parallel 60 deg. North to its 
intersection with meridian 55 deg. East and thence along meridian 
55 deg. East to its intersection with parallel 72 deg. North.
    (4) The ``Tropical Zone'' (see Figure 1 of this section) is defined 
as:
    (i) The whole of that area in Region 2 between the Tropics of 
Cancer and Capricorn.
    (ii) The whole of that area in Regions 1 and 3 contained between 
the parallels 30 deg. North and 35 deg. South with the addition of:
    (A) The area contained between the meridians 40 deg. East and 
80 deg. East of Greenwich and the parallels 30 deg. North and 40 deg. 
North; and
    (B) That part of Libya north of parallel 30 deg. North.
    (iii) In Region 2, the Tropical Zone may be extended to parallel 
33 deg. North, subject to special agreements between the countries 
concerned in that Region.
    (5) A sub-Region is an area consisting of two or more countries in 
the same Region.
    (d) Categories of services and allocations. (1) Primary and 
secondary services. Where, in a box of the International Table in 
Sec. 2.106, a band is indicated as allocated to more than one service, 
either on a worldwide or Regional basis, such services are listed in 
the following order:
    (i) Services the names of which are printed in ``capitals'' 
(example: FIXED); these are called ``primary'' services; and
    (ii) Services the names of which are printed in ``normal 
characters'' (example: Mobile); these are called ``secondary'' services 
(see paragraph (d)(3) of this section).
    (2) Additional remarks shall be printed in normal characters 
(example: MOBILE except aeronautical mobile).
    (3) Stations of a secondary service:
    (i) Shall not cause harmful interference to stations of primary 
services to which frequencies are already assigned or to which 
frequencies may be assigned at a later date;
    (ii) 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
    (iii) Can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from 
stations of the same or other secondary service(s) to which frequencies 
may be assigned at a later date.
    (4) Where a band is indicated in a footnote of the International 
Table as allocated to a service ``on a secondary basis'' in an area 
smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, this is a secondary 
service (see paragraph (d)(3) of this section).
    (5) Where a band is indicated in a footnote of the International 
Table as allocated to a service ``on a primary basis'', in an area 
smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, this is a primary 
service only in that area or country.
    (e) Additional allocations. (1) Where a band is indicated in a 
footnote of the International Table as ``also allocated'' to a service 
in an area smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, this is 
an ``additional'' allocation, i.e. an allocation which is added in this 
area or in this country to the service or services which are indicated 
in the International Table.
    (2) If the footnote does not include any restriction on the service 
or services concerned apart from the restriction to operate only in a 
particular area or country, stations of this service or these services 
shall have equality of right to operate with stations of the other 
primary service or services indicated in the International Table.
    (3) If restrictions are imposed on an additional allocation in 
addition to the restriction to operate only in a particular area or 
country, this is indicated in the footnote of the International Table.
    (f) Alternative allocations. (1) Where a band is indicated in a 
footnote of the International Table as ``allocated'' to one or more 
services in an area smaller than a Region, or in a particular country, 
this is an ``alternative'' allocation, i.e. an allocation which 
replaces, in this area or in this country, the allocation indicated in 
the Table.
    (2) If the footnote does not include any restriction on stations of 
the service or services concerned, apart from the restriction to 
operate only in a particular area or country, these stations of such a 
service or services shall have an equality of right to operate with 
stations of the primary service or services, indicated in the 
International Table, to which the band is allocated in other areas or 
countries.
    (3) If restrictions are imposed on stations of a service to which 
an alternative allocation is made, in addition to the restriction to 
operate only in a particular country or area, this is indicated in the 
footnote.
    (g) Miscellaneous provisions. (1) Where it is indicated that a 
service may operate in a specific frequency band subject to not causing 
harmful interference, this means also that this service cannot claim 
protection from harmful interference caused by other services to which 
the band is allocated under Chapter SII of the international Radio 
Regulations.
    (2) Except if otherwise specified in a footnote, the term ``fixed 
service'', where appearing in the International

[[Page 4638]]

Table, does not include systems using ionospheric scatter propagation.
    (h) Description of the International Table of Frequency 
Allocations. (1) The heading of the International Table includes three 
columns, each of which corresponds to one of the Regions (see paragraph 
(b) of this section). Where an allocation occupies the whole of the 
width of the Table or only one or two of the three columns, this is a 
worldwide allocation or a Regional allocation, respectively.
    (2) The frequency band referred to in each allocation is indicated 
in the left-hand top corner of the part of the Table concerned.
    (3) Within each of the categories specified in paragraph (d)(1) of 
this section, services are listed in alphabetical order according to 
the French language. The order of listing does not indicate relative 
priority within each category.
    (4) In the case where there is a parenthetical addition to an 
allocation in the International Table, that service allocation is 
restricted to the type of operation so indicated.
    (5) The footnote references which appear in the International Table 
below the allocated service or services apply to the whole of the 
allocation concerned.
    (6) The footnote references which appear to the right of the name 
of a service are applicable only to that particular service.
    (7) In certain cases, the names of countries appearing in the 
footnotes have been simplified in order to shorten the text.

    4. Section 2.105 is revised to read as follows.


Sec. 2.105  United States Table of Frequency Allocations.

    (a) The United States Table of Frequency Allocations (United States 
Table) is subdivided into the Federal Government Table of Frequency 
Allocations (Federal Government Table, column 4 of Sec. 2.106) and the 
Non-Federal Government Table of Frequency Allocations (Non-Federal 
Government Table, column 5 of Sec. 2.106). The United States Table is 
based on the Region 2 Table because the relevant area of jurisdiction 
is located primarily in Region 2 \1\ (i.e., the 50 States, the District 
of Columbia, the Caribbean insular areas \2\ and some of the Pacific 
insular areas).\3\ \4\ The Federal Government Table is administered by 
the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) 
\5\, whereas the Non-Federal Government Table is administered by the 
Federal Communications Commission (FCC).\6\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See Sec. 2.104(a)(1) for definition of Region 2.
    \2\ The Caribbean insular areas are: The Commonwealth of Puerto 
Rico; the unincorporated territory of the United States Virgin 
Islands; and Navassa Island.
    \3\ The Pacific insular areas located in Region 2 are: Johnston 
Atoll and Midway Atoll.
    \4\ The operation of stations in the Pacific insular areas 
located in Region 3 are generally governed by the International plan 
for Region 3 (i.e., column 3 of Sec. 2.106). The Pacific insular 
areas located in Region 3 are: the Commonwealth of the Northern 
Mariana Islands; the unincorporated territory of American Samoa; the 
unincorporated territory of Guam; and Baker Island, Howland Island, 
Jarvis Island, Kingman Reef, Palmyra Island and Wake Island.
    \5\ Section 305(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as 
amended. See Pub. Law 102-538, 106 Stat. 3533 (1992).
    \6\ The Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (b) In the United States, radio spectrum may be allocated to either 
Federal government or non-Federal government use exclusively, or for 
shared use. In the case of shared use, the type of service(s) permitted 
need not be the same [e.g., Federal government FIXED, non-Federal 
government MOBILE]. The terms used to designate categories of services 
and allocations \7\ in columns 4 and 5 of Sec. 2.106 correspond to the 
terms employed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in 
the international Radio Regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ Definitions of the various radio services used are contained 
in Sec. 2.1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (c) Category of services. (1) Any segment of the radio spectrum may 
be allocated to the Federal government and/or non-Federal government 
sectors either on an exclusive or shared basis for use by one or more 
radio services. In the case where an allocation has been made to more 
than one service, such services are listed in the following order:
    (i) Services, the names of which are printed in ``capitals'' 
[example: FIXED]; these are called ``primary'' services;
    (ii) Services, the names of which are printed in ``normal 
characters'' [example: Mobile]; these are called ``secondary'' 
services.
    (2) Stations of a secondary service:
    (i) Shall not cause harmful interference to stations of primary 
services to which frequencies are already assigned or to which 
frequencies may be assigned at a later date;
    (ii) 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
    (iii) Can claim protection, however, from harmful interference from 
stations of the same or other secondary service(s) to which frequencies 
may be assigned at a later date.
    (d) Format of the United States Table and the Rule Part Cross 
Reference Column. (1) The frequency band referred to in each 
allocation, column 4 for Federal government and column 5 for non-
Federal government, is indicated in the left-hand top corner of the 
column. If there is no service or footnote indicated for a band of 
frequencies in either column 4 or 5, then the Federal government or the 
non-Federal government sector, respectively, has no access to that band 
except as provided for by Sec. 2.102.
    (2) When the Federal Government and Non-Federal Government Tables 
are exactly the same for a shared band, the line between columns 4 and 
5 is deleted and the allocations are shown once.
    (3) The Federal Government Table, given in column 4, is included 
for informational purposes only.
    (4) In the case where there is a parenthetical addition to an 
allocation in the United States Table [example: FIXED-SATELLITE (space-
to-earth)], that service allocation is restricted to the type of 
operation so indicated.
    (5) The following symbols are used to designate footnotes in the 
United States Table:
    (i) Any footnote consisting of ``S5.'' followed by one or more 
digits, e.g., S5.53, or any footnote not prefixed by a letter, e.g., 
459, denotes an international footnote. Where an international footnote 
is applicable, without modification, to the United States Table, the 
footnote appears in the United States Table (columns 4 and 5) and 
denotes a stipulation affecting both the Federal Government Table and 
the Non-Federal Government Table. If, however, an international 
footnote pertains to a service allocated only for Federal government or 
non-Federal government use, the international footnote will be placed 
only in the affected Table. For example, ``AMATEUR S5.142'' shall be 
shown only in the Non-Federal Government Table.
    (ii) Any footnote consisting of the letters US followed by one or 
more digits, e.g., US7, denotes a stipulation affecting both the 
Federal Government Table and the Non-Federal Government Table.
    (iii) Any footnote consisting of the letters NG followed by one or 
more digits, e.g., NG2, denotes a stipulation applicable only to the 
Non-Federal Government Table (column 5).
    (iv) Any footnote consisting of the letter G following by one or 
more digits, e.g., G2, denotes a stipulation applicable only to the 
Federal Government Table (column 4).
    (6) If a frequency or frequency band has been allocated to a 
radiocommunication service in the Non-Federal Government Table, then a 
cross reference may be added for the pertinent FCC Rule part (column 6 
of Sec. 2.106). For example, the 849-851 MHz band is allocated to the 
non-Federal government aeronautical mobile service, 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 the Table. The exact use that can be made 
of any given frequency or frequency band (e.g., channelling plans, 
allowable emissions, etc.) is given in the FCC Rule part(s) so 
indicated. The FCC Rule parts in this column are not allocations and 
are provided for informational purposes only. This column also may 
contain explanatory notes for informational purposes only.

    5. Section 2.106 is amended as follows:
    a. The Table proceeding the international footnotes is revised and 
shall begin on a left-hand page.
    b. The international footnotes section is revised.
    c. United States footnotes US7, US78, US221, US256, US257, US296, 
US303, US311, US319, and US322 are revised.
    d. United States footnotes US272, US284, US326, and US341 are 
removed.
    e. The heading to the list of ``Non-Government (NG) Footnotes'' is 
revised and in the parenthetical following the

[[Page 4641]]

heading revise ``non-Government'' to read ``non-Federal Government''.
    f. Non-Federal government footnotes NG47, NG102, NG120, NG124, 
NG128, and NG147 are revised.
    g. Non-Federal government footnotes NG133, NG139, NG140, and NG154 
are removed.
    h. The heading to the list of ``Government (G) Footnotes'' is 
revised and in the parenthetical following the heading revise 
``Government'' to read ``Federal Government''.
    i. Federal government footnotes G101 and G119 are removed.
    j. Federal government footnote G106 is revised.

    The revisions and additions read as follows:
