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.
