17186 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 54 / Wednesday, March 20, 2013 / Notices 

expects to conduct one to two CNAV 

tests per year over the next few years. 

These test events will provide an 

opportunity for civil users and 

manufacturers to participate in L2C/L5 

evaluation and will result in enhanced 

provider and user readiness for L2C/L5 

operations once the Next Generation 

GPS Operational Control System comes 

online in 2016. The draft test plan is 

available at (http://www.navcen.uscg.

gov/L2C_L5_CNAV_Test_Plan.pdf). The 

draft test plan communicates details of 

the broadcast, data collection, and 

results reporting plans. U.S. Air Force 

Space Command and the National 

Space-Based Positioning, Navigation, 

and Timing Systems Engineering Forum 

(NPEF) encourage L2C and L5 users and 

receiver manufacturers to review the 

test plan, provide comments, and 

participate in the evaluation process. 

Comments to the test plan must be 

submitted on a Comment Resolution 

Matrix (http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/

L2C_L5_CNAV_Test_Plan_Comments_

BLANK.xlsx) by 29 April 2013 and sent 

to Smcgper@us.af.mil. The final test 

plan will be posted (http://www.navcen.

uscg.gov/L2C_L5_CNAV_Test_Plan.pdf) 

once all comments have been 

adjudicated. All user and manufacturer 

comments and the resulting 

adjudications will also be posted (http:// 

www.navcen.uscg.gov/L2C_L5_CNAV_

Test_Plan_Comments.pdf) consistent 

with the GPS public ICWG process. Any 

military or civil users who encounter 

user equipment problems during or after 

testing should contact the GPS 

Operations Center (GPSOC) (military), 

NAVCEN (civil, non-aviation) as soon as 

possible. Aviation users should file 

reports consistent with FAA-approved 

procedures. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Send all questions or concerns regarding 

the CNAV Test Plan to
