§ 27.303 Upper 700 MHz commercial and public safety coordination zone.
(a) General. CMRS operators are required, prior to commencing operations on
fixed or base station transmitters on the 776-787 MHz band that are located
within 500 meters of existing or planned public safety base station
receivers, to submit a description of their proposed facility to a
Commission-approved public safety coordinator.
(i) The frequency or frequencies on which the facility will operate;
(ii) Antenna location and height;
(iii) Type of emission;
(iv) Effective radiated power;
(v) A description of the area served and the operator's name.
(2) It is the CMRS operator's responsibility to determine whether referral
is required for stations constructed in its area of license. Public safety
base stations are considered “planned” when public safety operators have
notified, or initiated coordination with, a Commission-approved public
safety coordinator.
(b) CMRS operators must wait at least 10 business days after submission of
the required description before commencing operations on the referenced
facility, or implementing modifications to an existing facility.
(c) The potential for harmful interference between the CMRS and public
safety facilities will be evaluated by the public safety coordinator.
(1) With regard to existing public safety facilities, the coordinator's
determination to disapprove a proposed CMRS facility (or modification) to be
located within 500 meters of the public safety facilities will be presumed
correct, but the CMRS operator may seek Commission review of such
determinations. Pending Commission review, the CMRS operator will not
activate the facility or implement proposed modifications.
(2) With regard to proposed public safety facilities, the coordinator's
determination to disapprove a proposed CMRS facility (or modification) to be
located within 500 meters of the public safety facilities will be presumed
correct, but the CMRS operator may seek Commission review and, pending
completion of review, operate the facility during construction of the public
safety facilities. If coordination or Commission review has not been
completed when the public safety facilities are ready to operate, the CMRS
operator must cease operations pending completion of coordination or
Commission review. Such interim operation of the CMRS facility within the
coordination zone (or implementation of modifications) will not be relied on
by the Commission in its subsequent review and determination of measures
necessary to control interference, including relocation or modification of
the CMRS facility.
(d) If, in the event of harmful interference between facilities located
within 500 meters proximity, the parties are unable, with the involvement of
the coordinator, to resolve the problem by mutually satisfactory
arrangements, the Commission may impose restrictions on the operations of
any of the parties involved.
