- Thus, dismissal, and not return, of the application was the appropriate course of action. Finally, we conclude that SDGE's amended applications should be governed by the rules and procedures applicable to major amendments. Thus, we agree with SDGE that a returned application will lose its place in the processing line only in instances where the required amendment is major. Section 1.929(a)(5) of the Commission's Rules provides that ``an application or amendment requiring frequency coordination pursuant to the Commission's rules'' is classified as major. SDGE asserts that its frequency coordination showing is not a major filing in accordance with Section 1.929(a)(5). It argues that this provision specifically deems only an amendment requiring coordination to be a major filing, but not an amendment

GTECH adds that the amendment would be minor if the Commission finds that it constitutes a site relocation. We disagree. We do not believe that the Branch was obligated to address GTECH's petition to deny prior to its action concerning GTECH's pending Phoenix application. While Section 1.929 of the Commission's Rules provides that a change in transmit antenna location exceeding 5 seconds in latitude and/or longitude is a major amendment, that rule also provides that any change to the center of operation or an increase in radius of a circular operation is a major amendment.

- the minimum necessary hours of operation of its system. As a result of these amendments, Celtronix contends that it no longer requires a waiver of Sections 90.127(b) and 90.155(a) and therefore requests withdrawal of its request for waiver filed on July 19, 1999 in association with its original application. Celtronix's proposed amendments constitute major changes to its application under Section 1.929(c)(4) of the Commission's Rules. Where an amendment to an application constitutes a major change, the amendment is considered a new application. Because this amended application must be treated as a new application, we will forward the amendment to the Division's Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch (LTAB) for processing.

- in question is already licensed to an affiliate of Reeves where the same principals own the same percentage of each company. Reeves does not, however, merely seek to transfer the frequency at issue from an affiliate to its parent company. Additionally, the application seeks to ``modify'' the license for Station WPBE376 by adding the frequency 855.5125 MHz (channel 181). Section 1.929 of the Commission's Rules is clear that such requests are considered ``major,'' rather than minor modifications. Moreover, Section 1.947 of the Commission's Rules states that major modifications ``require prior Commission approval.'' Consequently, the instant application is not pro forma and requires Commission approval. We now address Reeves's request for waiver of Section 90.617(c) of our Rules. A waiver may be

- the characterization of an amendment as major or minor depends neither on whether it is the subject of ``a major Order'' nor on an individualized assessment of whether and how the amendment may affect the interests of third parties. Rather, a minor amendment is any amendment that is not of a type specifically listed as a major amendment in Section 1.929 of the Commission's Rules. An amendment that revises an applicant's designated entity showing by adding revenues attributable to the applicant by operation of the spousal attribution rule is not among the amendments listed as major in Section 1.929, and therefore is properly characterized as a minor amendment. Nothing in Section 1.2105 alters this conclusion, as that rule, like Section 1.929,

- of unnecessarily excessive power levels, thus defeating the spectral efficiency intended by minimum path length requirements. We decline to classify the conversion from analog to analog/digital or digital operation as a minor modification, as recommended by MRC. For reasons explained in detail in III.A.4, III.A.7, and III.C.2 below, such a change is and will remain classified as major under Section 1.929. Further, while operation without interference is possible, and frequency coordination may demonstrate the ability of the system to operate without interference, neither would necessarily justify the continuation of higher power levels, or thus warrant the continuation. We therefore decline to accept such conditions as sufficient justification to warrant the continuation of higher power levels, and will continue to require an

- that Cal Water's applications would have been dismissed as untimely because the SDG&E applications were filed first. However, it noted that the January 2000 applications filed by SDG&E were defective because they were filed without the required frequency coordination. On May 23, 2000, SDG&E amended its applications to include frequency coordination. Such amendments are major pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 1.929. Therefore, ordinarily such an amended application is treated as a new application, thereby initiating a new filing date. Consequently, the Division noted that SDG&E's applications should have received a filing date of May 23, 2000, which would have been considered untimely with regards to Cal Water's applications.

- FS license does not result in a loss of primary status and, hence, relocation eligibility. In support of this request, Joint Petitioners point to Section 101.81 of the rules (on future licensing in the 2160-2200 MHz band) which states all major modifications to existing fixed microwave systems after April 25, 1996, will be authorized on a secondary basis. Furthermore, Section 1.929(a)(2) of the Rules (on wireless telecommunications system applications and proceedings) states that any substantial change in ownership or control is included among the actions that are classified as major. Reading these two sections together, petitioners state that an assignment or transfer of control could be interpreted to preclude relocation eligibility of the incumbent. Petitioners also correctly point out that, while

For example, we propose to eliminate the requirement to file FCC Form 409 (Airborne Mobile Radio Telephone License Application) to apply for authority to operate a general aviation airborne station. We also propose to amend section 1.929(c)(1) to specify that certain expansions over water of a composite interference contour (CIC) of a site-based licensee in the Paging and Radiotelephone Service, as well as in the Rural Radiotelephone and 800 MHz Specialized Mobile Radio Services, on a secondary, non-interference basis are not a major modification of license.

IMLC supports the Commission's proposals to eliminate the various unnecessary and unhelpful filings which MDS licensees must make, stating that outdated and unnecessary reports and requirements for MDS licensees should be abolished. The Coalition believes that minor revisions to Section 1.929 are required to reflect the MBS Licensing Scheme and that with the development of appropriate individual standards for determining whether MBS filings are ``major'' or ``minor,'' Section 1.929 can readily be amended to consolidate the MDS and ITFS major and minor change and major and minor amendment rules.

- Branch, Commercial Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau: 1. The Commission has before it a request for declaratory ruling, filed on January 23, 1998, by Karl A. Rinker d/b/a Rinker's Communications (``Rinker''), seeking a determination regarding whether increases in interference contours extending only over the Atlantic Ocean are considered minor or major modifications of a paging station license pursuant to Section 1.929(c)(1) of the Commission's rules. 2. Rinker is a 152.03 MHz CMRS licensee in the Portland, Maine area. Rinker would like to install a base transmitter in the Portland area, which would extend its existing composite interference contour. According to Rinker, the increase in the interference contour created by Rinker's proposed transmitter would extend over both a portion of Maine's coastline

Major modifications include: any change in frequency tolerance, bandwidth, emission type, transmit antenna height more than 3 meters, antenna polarization, in the radius of a circular area of operation, or any change in any other kind of area operation. See 47 CFR 1.929(d)(1). [26][6] A similar argument applies to DBS interference complaints that arise more than a year after the MVDDS service is installed. Any interference issues should be detected and repaired in a reasonable time and providing all parties a year to get it right strikes a reasonable balance of the interests.

One of the conditions that must be met is that the ``additional transmitters must not have a significant environmental effect'' under Sections 1.1301 through 1.1319 of the Rules. Similarly, under Section 1.947(a) of the Rules, ``[a]ll major modifications [of wireless licenses], as defined in 1.929 of [the Rules] . . . , require prior Commission approval.'' Section 1.929(a) classifies the following as a ``major'' modification for all services: ``[a]pplication or amendment requesting authorization for a facility that would have a significant environmental effect as defined by 1.1301 through 1.1319 of the rules . . . .''

The draft Nationwide Agreement refers to ``modification'' of a tower. This terminology, however, creates potential for confusion with modification of a license. See 47 C.F.R. 1.929(a)(4) (application or amendment requesting authorization for a facility that would have a significant environmental effect constitutes a major license modification). For clarity, therefore, the final Nationwide Agreement uses the term ``enhancement.'' Id. Collocation Agreement, 16 FCC Rcd at 5577.
