The FCC Form 312–EZ, Qualification 

Questions, is used by applicants for the 

C-band and Ku-band earth stations (noncommon carrier applicants) who are 

eligible for the ‘‘auto-grant’’ procedure. 

Under the ‘‘auto-grant process’’ the 

International Bureau of the FCC 

automatically grants ‘‘routine’’ earth 

station applications proposing to use the 

C-band or Ku-band. To be considered 

‘‘routine’’, earth station must meet a 

number of requirements, including 

primarily the following: (1) The earth 

station antenna must meet certain 

minimum diameter requirements; (2) 

the proposed earth station must meet 

the antenna performance standard and 

power limitations contained in Part 25 

of the Commission’s rules; (3) the earth 

station must be coordinated as required 

by Part 25; (4) the applicant seeks to 

communicate only with satellites 

authorized to provide service in the 

United States; and (5) the proposed 

station is otherwise consistent with the 

Commission’s legal requirements. 

This information collection is used by 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties concerning satellite 

communications as required by Sections 

301, 308, 309, and 310 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. It is also used by the 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties under the World Trade 

Organization (WTO) Basic Telecom 

Agreement. Without such information, 

the Commission could not determine 

whether to permit respondents to 

provide telecommunications services in 

the United States.

information. 

Needs and Uses: On November 29, 

1999, the Community Broadcasters 

Protection Act of 1999 (CBPA), Pub. L. 

No. 106–113, 113 Stat. Appendix I at 

pp. 1501A–594—1501A–598 (1999), 

codified at 47 U.S.C. Section 336(f), was 

enacted. That legislation provided that a 

low power television (LPTV) licensee 

should be permitted to convert the 

secondary status of its station to the new 

Class A status, provided it can satisfy 

certain statutorily-established criteria. 

The CBPA directs that Class A licensees 

be subject to the same license terms and 

renewal standards as full-power 

television licenses and that Class A 

licensees be accorded primary status as 

television broadcasters as long as they 

continue to meet the requirements set 

forth in the statute for a qualifying low 

power station. The CBPA sets out 

certain certification and application 

procedures for LPTV licensees seeking 

Class A designation, prescribes the 

criteria LPTV licensees must meet to be 

eligible for Class A licenses, and 

outlines the interference protection 

Class A applicants must provide to 

analog, digital, LPTV and TV translator 

stations. 

The CBPA directs that Class A 

stations must comply with the operating 

requirements for full-service television 

broadcast stations. Therefore, beginning 

on the date of its application for a Class 

A license and thereafter, a station must 

be ‘‘in compliance’’ with the 

Commission’s operating rules for fullservice television stations, contained in 

47 CFR part 73.
