**ERRATUM**

**Released: October 24, 2007**

By the Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:

1\. On April 11, 2002, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau released
an *Order*, DA 02-847, in the above-captioned proceeding. This Erratum
corrects the document as indicated below. The Order that is the subject
of these corrections served to eliminate redundant or unnecessary rules
from the Code of Federal Regulations. The Order amended the Commission's
rules on competitive bidding to further the Bureau's continuing efforts
to streamline its procedures in accordance with the Commission's
biennial regulatory review obligations set forth at section 11(a) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended.

2\. Need for Correction. As published, the amended 47 CFR § 27.502,
which renumbered original Section 27.502(a)(6) as Section 27.502(c),[^1]
inadvertently omitted the substance of the original Section 27.502(c),
regarding bidding credit percentages. This correction restores the
original Section 27.502(c) as Section 27.502(b), and renumbers the
remaining paragraphs of Section 27.502 (*i.e.*, the current paragraphs
(a) and (b)) as Sections 27.502(a)(1) and 27.502(a)(2). In addition, we
take this opportunity to update cross-references to 47 CFR §
1.2110(e)(2)(ii) and 1.2110(e)(2)(iii) appearing in the original 47 CFR
§27.502(c) to reflect the intervening renumbering of the
cross-referenced material as 47 CFR § 1.2110(f)(2)(ii) and
1.2110(f)(2)(iii).

3\. Accordingly, Section 27.502 is revised to read as follows:

Eligibility for small business provisions.

(a)(1) A small business is an entity that together with its controlling
interests and affiliates, has average gross revenues not exceeding \$40
million for the preceding three years.

\(2\) A very small business is an entity that, together with its
controlling interests and affiliates, has average gross revenues not
exceeding \$15 million for the preceding three years.

\(b\) Bidding Credits. A winning bidder that qualifies as a small
business or a consortium of small businesses as defined in this section
may use the bidding credit specified in § 1.2110(f)(2)(iii) of this
chapter. A winning bidder that qualifies as a very small business or a
consortium of very small businesses as defined in this section may use
the bidding credit specified in § 1.2110(f)(2)(ii) of this chapter.

4\. Authority and Effective Date. The forgoing revision to the
Commission's rules corrects an inadvertent error and restores the rules
as intended by the Commission. The revision is made pursuant to the
Commission's direction to the Bureau to issue the original Order that is
the subject of this Erratum, as well as the Bureau's general delegated
authority.[^2] In light of the ministerial nature of these corrections,
notice and public procedure pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act
are unnecessary and there is good cause for these revisions to be
effective immediately upon publication of this Erratum in the Federal
Register.[^3]
