**Agenda item 4:**

4\. In accordance with Resolution **95 (Rev.WRC‑03)**, to review the
Resolutions and Recommendations of previous conferences with a view to
their possible revision, replacement or abrogation

**Background Information**

In accordance with Resolution 95 (Rev. WRC-03), the WRC Resolutions and
Recommendations should be reviewed at each conference.

*resolves*

1 to review the Resolutions and Recommendations of previous conferences
that are related to the agenda of the Conference with a view to their
possible revision, replacement or abrogation and to take appropriate
action;

2 to review the Resolutions and Recommendations of previous conferences
that are not related to any agenda item of the Conference with a view
to:

-- abrogating those Resolutions and Recommendations that have served
their purpose or have become no longer necessary;

-- reviewing the need for those Resolutions and Recommendations, or
parts thereof, requesting ITU-R studies on which no progress has been
made during the last two periods between conferences;

-- updating and modifying Resolutions and Recommendations, or parts
thereof that have become out of date, and to correct obvious omissions,
inconsistencies, ambiguities or editorial errors and effect any
necessary alignment;

The proposals in this document represent the review of Resolutions and
Recommendations that can be suppressed, with appropriate reasons
provided for each. In the case where an item is proposed for suppression
as a consequential action to the proposal for a specific agenda item,
those proposals are included in the proposal for the agenda item and not
repeated here in the proposal under agenda item 4.

**Proposal**

**SUP** USA/ / 1

RESOLUTION 21 (Rev.WRC-03)

Implementation of changes in frequency allocations\
between 5 900 kHz and 19 020 kHz

**Reasons:** The date of implementation for this Resolution was
1 April 2007 and as a consequence this Resolution should be suppressed.

**SUP** USA/ / 2

RESOLUTION 51 (Rev.WRC-2000)

Transitional arrangements relating to the advance publication\
and coordination of satellite networks

**Reasons:** Transitional period has expired.

**SUP** USA/ / 3

RESOLUTION 56 (Rev.WRC-03)

Modification of the procedures and requirements\
for advance publication

**Reasons:** Radio Regulations edition of 2004 was effective after 1
January 2005, and therefore Res. **56** is no longer required.

**SUP** USA/ / 4

RESOLUTION 57 (WRC-2000)[^1]

Modification of bringing into use and administrative due diligence\
requirements as a consequence of allocation\
changes above 71 GHz

**Reasons:** The bringing into use date of 3 June 2007 has been passed.

**SUP** USA/ / 5

RESOLUTION 87 (WRC-03)

Date of entry into force of certain provisions of the Radio Regulations\
relating to the non-payment of cost‑recovery fees

**Reasons:** No longer required since the BR requirement to give 60 day
notice based on the 1 August 2003 implementation date on non-payment of
cost recovery fees has passed.

**SUP** USA/ / 6

RESOLUTION 88 (WRC‑03)

Rationalization of Articles 9 and 11 of the Radio Regulations

**Reasons:** No studies submitted to WRC-07. Res. 88 is no longer
needed.

**SUP** USA/ / 7

RESOLUTION 96 (WRC-03)

Provisional application of certain provisions of the Radio Regulations\
as revised by WRC-03 and abrogation of certain\
Resolutions and Recommendations

**Reasons:** The date of implementation has passed and as a consequence
this Resolution should be suppressed.

**SUP** USA/ / 8

RESOLUTION 124 (Rev.WRC-2000)

Protection of the fixed service in the frequency band 8 025-8 400 MHz\
sharing with geostationary-satellite systems of the Earth\
exploration-satellite service (space-to-Earth)

**Reasons:** Consequential suppression based on change in footnote
5.462A at WRC-03 to include values contained in Recommendation ITU-R
F.1502.

**MOD** USA/ / 9

**5.462A** In Regions 1 and 3 (except for Japan), in the band
8 025-8 400 MHz, the Earth exploration-satellite service using
geostationary satellites shall not produce a power flux-density in
excess of the following ~~provisional~~ values for angles of arrival ()
[under free-space propagation conditions]{.underline}, without the
consent of the affected administration:

~~174~~[135]{.underline} dB(W/m^2^) in a ~~4~~[1]{.underline}
~~k~~[M]{.underline}Hz band for  0 º    5º

--~~174~~[135]{.underline} + 0.5 ( -- 5) dB(W/m^2^) in a
~~4~~[1]{.underline} ~~k~~[M]{.underline}Hz band for  5º 25º

--~~164~~[125]{.underline} dB(W/m^2^) in a ~~4~~[1]{.underline}
~~k~~[M]{.underline}Hz band for  25º 90º

~~These values are subject to study under Resolution **124
(WRC-97)**~~[^2]~~.     (WRC-97)~~

**Reasons:** Consequential Modification based on Suppression of
Resolution 124 (Rev. WRC-2000) which resolved "to invite a future
competent world radiocommunication conference to review No. 5.462A,
taking into account Recommendation ITU‑R F.1502, and to take appropriate
action." The above modification to No. 5.462A implements the results
given in the *recommends* of Recommendation ITU-R F.1502.

**SUP** USA/ / 10

RESOLUTION 136 (Rev.WRC-03)

Frequency sharing in the range 37.5-50.2 GHz between geostationary\
fixed-satellite service networks and non-geostationary\
fixed-satellite service systems

**Reasons:** Consequential to proposal for suppression of WRC-10 future
agenda item 2.5

**SUP** USA/ / 11

RESOLUTION 144 (WRC-03)

Special requirements of geographically small or narrow countries\
operating earth stations in the fixed-satellite service\
