Announcement of Effective Date of Certain Commission Rules

    1. In the February 2, 2004 Public Notice, DA 04-252, 19 FCC Rcd 
1911, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau announced the availability 
of FCC Form 603-T for use by spectrum leasing parties filing spectrum 
leasing notifications and applications with the Commission, and the 
rules requiring use of FCC Form 603-T became effective as of that date. 
FCC Form 603-T contain information collection necessary for the 
implementation of certain spectrum leasing rules adopted by the 
Commission in 2003 in the Secondary Markets First Report and Order, 
published at 68 Fed. Reg. 66252 (Nov. 25, 2003). As noted therein, the

1.9030(e), and 1.9035(e)--would not become effective until the 
information collection requirements contained in those rules were 
approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The Bureau 
reiterated this discussion regarding the effective date of certain 
spectrum leasing rules in its Memorandum Opinion and Order, DA 04-239, 
19 FCC Rcd 1542, January 30, 2004.
    2. On January 29, 2004, OMB approved of the use of Form 603-T on an 
interim basis. Accordingly, the revisions to sections 1.913(a), 
1.913(a)(3), 1.2002(d), 1.2003, and the new rules involving use of 
certain forms of information collection as set forth of 1.9003, 
1.9020(e), 1.9030(e), and 1.9035(e) of the Commission's spectrum 
leasing rules, 47 CFR 1.913(a), 1.913(a)(3), 1.2002(d), 1.2003, 1.9003, 
1.9020(e), 1.9030(e), and 1.9035(e), became effective with the issuance
