Sec. 24.815  Technical content of applications; maintenance of list of 
          station locations.

    (a) All applications required by this part shall contain all 
technical information required by the application forms or associated 
Public Notice(s). Applications other than initial applications for a 
broadband PCS license must also comply with all technical requirements 
of the rules governing the broadband PC (see subparts C and E of this 
part as appropriate). The following paragraphs describe a number of 
general technical requirements.
    (b) Each application (except applications for initial licenses filed 
on Form 175) for a license for broadband PCS must comply with the 
provisions of Secs. 24.229-24.238 of the Commission's Rules.
    (c)-(i) [Reserved]
    (j) The location of the transmitting antenna shall be considered to 
be the station location. Broadband PCS licensees must maintain a current 
list of all station locations, which must describe the transmitting 
antenna site by its geographical coordinates and also by conventional 
reference to street number, landmark, or the equivalent. All such 
coordinates shall be specified in terms of degrees, minutes, and seconds 
to the nearest second of latitude and longitude.

Secs. 24.816--24.818  [Reserved]

24.819  Waiver of rules.

    (a) Requests for waiver.
    (1) A waiver of these rules may be granted upon application or by 
the Commission on its own motion. Requests for waivers shall contain a 
statement of reason sufficient to justify a waiver. Waivers will not be 
granted except upon an affirmative showing:
    (i) That the underlying purpose of the rule will not be served, or 
would be frustrated, by its application in a particular case, and that 
grant of the waiver is otherwise in the public interest; or
    (ii) That the unique facts and circumstances of a particular case 
render application of the rule inequitable, unduly burdensome or 
otherwise contrary to the public interest. Applicants must also show the 
lack of a reasonable alternative.
    (2) If the information necessary to support a waiver request is 
already on file, the applicant may cross-reference to the specific 
filing where it may be found.
    (b) Denial of waiver, alternate showing required. If a waiver is not 
granted, the application will be dismissed as defective unless the 
applicant has also provided an alternative proposal which complies with 
the Commission's rules (including any required showings).
