FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Parts 25 and 101

[FCC 01-323]


Redesignation of the 18 GHz Frequency Band, Blanket Licensing of 
Satellite Earth Stations in the Ka-band, and the Allocation of 
Additional Spectrum for Broadcast Satellite-Service Use; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission adopted an order granting in part and denying 
in part the petitions for reconsideration of the 18 GHz Order filed by 
various parties. The Commission, among other things, affirmed its basic 
findings in the 18 GHz Order and addressed a number of issues raised by 
parties in their reconsideration petitions. Because an error was made 
in the publication of the final rule, this document contains a 
correction to the final rule document which was published in the 
Federal Register on December 7, 2001 (66 FR 63512).

DATES: Effective July 17, 2002.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Secretary, 445 12th 
Street, SW., Room TW-B204F, Washington, DC 20554.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 7, 2001 (66 FR 63512), the 
Federal Register published a summary of the final rule in the above 
captioned proceeding. Instruction 5 of the rules amended Sec. 25.208 by 
revising paragraph (c), removing paragraph (d), and redesignating 
paragraph (e) as paragraph (d) and paragraph (f) as paragraph (e). In 
redesignating paragraph (e) as paragraph (d), the instructions 
neglected to revise paragraph (d) of Sec. 25.208(d). This document 
corrects Sec. 25.208(d).
    On page 63515, in the third column, instruction 5 is corrected to 
read as follows:
    5. Section 25.208 is amended by removing paragraph (d), 
redesignating paragraphs (e) and (f) as paragraphs (d) and (e) and by 
revising paragraph (c) and newly designated paragraph (d) to read as 
follows:


Sec. 25.208  Power flux-density limits.

* * * * *
    (c) In the 18.3-18.8 GHz, 19.3-19.7 GHz, 22.55-23.00 GHz, 23.00-
23.55 GHz, and 24.45-24.75 GHz frequency bands, the power flux-density 
at the Earth's surface produced by emissions from a space station for 
all conditions for all methods of modulation shall not exceed the 
following values:
    (1) -115 dB (W/m\2\) in any 1 MHz band for angles of arrival 
between 0 and 5 degrees above the horizontal plane.
    (2) -115 + 0.5 (d-5) dB (W/m\2\) in any 1 MHz band for angles of 
arrival d (in degrees) between 5 and 25 degrees above the horizontal 
plane.
    (3) -105 dB (W/m\2\) in any 1 MHz band for angles of arrival 
between 25 and 90 degrees above the horizontal plane.
    (d) In addition to the limits specified in paragraph (c) of this 
section, the power flux-density across the 200 MHz band 18.6-18.8 GHz 
produced at the Earth's surface by emissions from a space station under 
assumed free-space propagation conditions shall not exceed -95 dB (W/
m\2\) for all angles of arrival. This limit may be exceeded by up to 3 
dB for no more than 5% of the time.
