SYSTEMS EXEMPTED FROM CERTAIN PROVISIONS

OF THE ACT: 

Under 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(1), (k)(2), and 

(k)(5), the Personnel Security System is 

exempt from the following provisions of 

the Privacy Act of 1974 as amended, 

subject to the limitations set forth in this 

subsection; 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3); (d)(2), 

(d)(3), and (d)(4); (e)(1), and (f)(2) 

through (5). Although the Personnel 

Security System has been exempted, 

EPA may, in its discretion, fully grant 

individual requests for access and 

correction if it determines that the 

exercise of these rights will not interfere 

with an interest that the exemption is 

intended to protect.

I. Licenses To Be Offered in Auction 

No. 69 

1. In Auction No. 69, two 3-megahertz 

blocks, each consisting of a pair of 1.5 

megahertz segments in the 1392–1395 

MHz and 1432–1435 MHz bands, will 

be offered in each of six regions known 

as Economic Area Groupings (EAGs). 

Additionally, one 2-megahertz block of 

unpaired spectrum in the 1390–1392 

MHz band will be offered in each of 52 

geographic areas known as Major 

Economic Areas (MEAs). The licenses 

available in Auction No. 69 are also 

listed in Attachment A of the Auction 

No. 69 Comment Public Notice. 

2. Permissible Services. When 

adopting its service rules for these 

bands, the Commission established a 

flexible regulatory and licensing 

framework in order to promote the 

provision of new and technologically 

innovative services. Licensees may 

provide both fixed and mobile services 

including wireless internet, high speed 

data as well as advanced two-way 

mobile and paging services. 

3. International Coordination. 

Currently, the United States does not 

have international agreements with 

Canada and Mexico governing 

operations in the 1392–1395 MHz, 

1432–1435 MHz or the 1390–1392 MHz 

bands. Licensees in these bands 

operating near the borders must protect 

stations in Canada and Mexico from 

harmful interference. The Bureau also 

notes that operation in these bands may 

be subject to future agreements with 

Canada and Mexico and therefore may 

be subject to further modification. 

4. Incumbency Issues. Potential 

applicants are advised that there are 

several government operations that will 

continue to operate in these bands: 

1390–1392 MHz 

Radio astronomy observations may be 

assigned in the 1350–1400 MHz band on 

an unprotected basis at the 16 radio 

astronomy observatories. Government 

operations authorized as of March 22, 

1995, at the 17 sites will continue to 

operate on a fully protected basis until 

January 1, 2009. All other government 

operations, except for medical telemetry 

(1395–1400 MHz), will operate on a 

non-interference basis to authorized 

non-Government operations and shall 

not hinder implementation of any nonGovernment operations. 

1392–1395 MHz and 1432–1435 MHz 

Government operations authorized as 

of March 22, 1995, at the 17 sites will 

continue to operate on a fully protected 

basis until January 1, 2009. All other 

government operations, except for 

medical telemetry (1395–1400 MHz), 

will operate on a non-interference basis 

to authorized non-Government 

operations and shall not hinder 

implementation of any non-Government 

operations. Government stations in the 

fixed and mobile services may operate 

indefinitely on a primary basis at the 23 

sites. All other Government stations in
