Communications Act of 1934. 

Total Annual Burden: 9,200 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $10,353,000. 

Needs and Uses: On March 17, 2021, 

the Federal Communications 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or ‘‘FCC’’) 

adopted a Second Report and Order, 

FCC 21–32, GN Docket No. WT–19–348 

(Second Report and Order) that 

establishes rules for flexible-use 

wireless access to the 100 megahertz in 

the 3450–3550 MHz (3.45 GHz) band, 

creating the new 3.45 GHz Service. The 

rules will create additional capacity for 

wireless broadband allowing full-power 

operations across the band in the entire 

contiguous United States, while also 

ensuring full protection of incumbent 

Federal operations remaining in 

particular locations. As part of this 

process, the Commission also adopted 

rules related to the relocation of 

incumbent non-Federal radiolocation 

operations, the selection of a third-party 

reimbursement clearinghouse, and 

reimbursement of expenses related to 

such relocation. 

Sections 2.016 and 27.1603 require a 

3.45 GHz Service licensee whose license 

area overlaps with a Cooperative 

Planning Area or Periodic Use Area, as 

defined in those sections, to coordinate 

deployments pursuant to those licenses 

in those areas with relevant Federal 

agencies. This coordination may take 

the form of a mutually acceptable 

operator-to-operator coordination 

agreement between the licensee and the 

relevant Federal agency. In the absence 

of such an agreement, this coordination 

will include a formal request for access 

through a Department of Defense online 

portal, which will include the 

submission of information related to the 

technical characteristics of the base 

stations and associated mobile units to 

be used in the covered area. It does not 

require a revision to the FCC Form 601. 

Section 27.1605 provides for the 

selection of a reimbursement 

clearinghouse and requires non-Federal, 

secondary radiolocation operations 

which are relocating from the 3.45 GHz 

band to alternate spectrum to clear the 

band for new flexible-use wireless 

operations to submit certain information 

to the clearinghouse in order to ensure 

their relocation costs are fairly 

reimbursed. It does not require a 

revision to the FCC Form 601. 

Section 27.1607 requires 3.45 GHz 

Service licensees to share certain 

information about their network 

operations in that band with operators 

in the adjacent Citizens Broadband 

Radio Service in order to enable the 

latter to synchronize their operations to 

reduce the risk of harmful interference. 

In response to a request by a Citizens 

Broadband Radio Service operator, a 

3.45 GHz Service licensee must provide 

information to enable Time Division 

Duplex synchronization. The exact 

nature of the information to be provided 

will be determined by a negotiation 

between the two entities, conducted on 

a good faith basis. The 3.45 GHz Service 

licensee must keep the information 

current as its network operations 

change. This does not require a revision 

to the FCC Form 601. 

Section 27.14(w) requires 3.45 GHz 

Service licensees to provide information 

on the extent to which they provide 

service in their license areas. Licensees 

are required to file two such reports: 

The first four (4) years after its initial 

license grant and the second eight (8) 

years after such grant, unless they failed 

to meet the first set of performance 

requirements, in which case the second 

report is due seven (7) years after the 

initial grant. These reports are filed 

alongside the Form 601 and require no 

revisions to it.
