filing of new space station license 

applications and new requests for U.S. 

market access through non-U.S.- 

licensed space stations to provide fixedsatellite service (FSS) in the 3.7–4.2 

GHz band.

Background. On August 3, 2017, the 

Commission released a Notice of Inquiry 

titled Expanding Flexible Use in MidBand Spectrum Between 3.7 and 24 GHz 

(NOI). In that NOI, the Commission 

sought detailed comment on frequency 

bands that had garnered interest to 

potentially support increased flexible 

broadband uses, including the 3.7–4.2 

GHz band. To preserve the current 

landscape of authorized operations 

pending Commission action as part of 

its ongoing inquiry into the possibility 

of permitting terrestrial broadband use 

and more intensive fixed use of the 

band (Mid-band Proceeding), the 

International, Public Safety and 

Homeland Security, and Wireless 

Telecommunications Bureaus 

announced a temporary freeze effective 

on April 19, 2018, on the filing of new 

or modification applications for FSS 

earth station licenses, FSS receive-only 

earth station registrations, and fixed 

microwave licenses in the 3.7–4.2 GHz 

frequency band. The Bureau also 

announced a 90-day filing window 

during which operators of existing, but 

unregistered or unlicensed, earth 

stations operating in the 3.7–4.2 GHz 

band could continue to file applications. 

See 83 FR 21746. The Bureau extended 

this filing window for an additional 90- 

days on June 21, 2018. 

Temporary Freeze. To further 

preserve the landscape of authorized 

operations in the 3.7–4.2 GHz band 

pending Commission action as part of 

its ongoing inquiry in the Mid-band 

Proceeding, the Bureau announces a 

temporary freeze, effective as of June 21, 

2018, on the filing of new space station 

license applications and new requests 

for U.S. market access through non-U.S.- 

licensed space stations in the 3.7–4.2 

GHz band. During the freeze, the 

International Bureau will dismiss any 

new space station license applications 

and new requests for access to the U.S. 

market through non-U.S.-licensed space 

stations, or those parts of any such 

applications and requests, that seek to 

operate in the 3.7–4.2 GHz band. The 

freeze does not apply to applications for 

modification of existing authorizations, 

relocations of existing space stations 

pursuant to the Commission’s fleet 

management policy, or to applications 

for replacement space stations. 

Waiver Requests. The International 

Bureau will consider requests for waiver 

of this freeze on a case-by-case basis and 

upon a demonstration that waiver will 

serve the public interest and not 

undermine the objectives of the freeze. 

This document does not contain 

proposed information collection 

requirements subject to the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104– 

13. In addition, therefore, it does not 

contain any proposed information 

collection burden for small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees, 

pursuant to the Small Business 

Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public 

Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). 

The Commission will not send a copy 

of this document pursuant to the 

Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 

801(a)(1)(A), because the adopted rules 

are rules of agency organization, 

procedure, or practice that do not 

‘‘substantially affect the rights or 

obligations of non-agency parties.
