SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Executive Order 12866 

The Office of Management and Budget 

has exempted this action from the 

review requirements of Executive Order 

12866 pursuant to Section 6 of that 

order. 

The state of Alaska, Department of 

Environmental Conservation (ADEC), 

has certified that the subject discharges 

comply with the applicable provisions 

of Sections 208(e), 301, 302, 306 and 

307 of the Clean Water Act. 

The state of Alaska, Department of 

Natural Resources, Office of Project 

Management and Permitting, Alaska 

Coastal Management Program (ACMP) 

determined that the GPs did not require 

a new ACMP review. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 

(RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., a Federal 

agency must prepare an initial 

regulatory flexibility analysis ‘‘for any 

proposed rule’’ for which the agency ‘‘is 

required by section 553 of the 

Administrative Procedure Act (APA), or 

any other law, to publish general notice 

of proposed rulemaking.’’ The RFA 

exempts from this requirement any rule 

that the issuing agency certifies ‘‘will 

not, if promulgated, have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities.’’ EPA has 

concluded that NPDES general permits 

are permits, not rulemakings, under the 

APA and thus not subject to APA 

rulemaking requirements or the RFA. 

Notwithstanding that general permits 

are not subject to the RFA, EPA has 

determined that these general permits, 

as issued, will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities.

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

adopted allocation and service rules for 

the 698–746 MHz spectrum band which 

is being reallocated pursuant to 

statutory requirements. The 

Commission took this action to support 

the development of new services in the 

lower 700 MHz band, and to protect 

existing television operations that will 

occupy the band throughout the 

transition to digital television. 

Section 27.50(c)(5) provides that 

licensees intending to operate a base or 

fixed station at a power level greater 

than 1 kW ERP must provide advanced 

notice of such operation to the 

Commission and to licensees authorized 

in their area of operation. Licensees that 

must be notified are all licensees 

authorized under this part to operate a 

base or fixed station on an adjacent 

spectrum block at a location within 75 

km of the base or fixed station operating 

at a power level greater than 1 kW ERP. 

Notices must provide the location and 

operating parameters of the base or fixed 

station operating at a power level greater 

than 1 kW ERP, including the station’s 

ERP, antenna coordinates, antenna 

height above ground, and vertical 

antenna pattern, and such notices must 

be provided at least 90 days prior to the 

commencement of station operation. 

The information will be used to aid the 

Commission in reclaiming and 

reallocating the lower 700 MHz band 

currently used for TV channels 52–59 

for new commercial services as part of 

the Commission’s transition of TV 

broadcasting from analog to digital 

transmission systems, while retaining 

the existing broadcast allocation. 

Further, the service rules have been 

designed to promote the development 

and rapid deployment of new 

technologies, products, and services for 

the benefit of the public; to promote 

economic opportunity and competition; 

and to create the efficient and intensive 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 172 / Wednesday, September 7, 2005 / Notices 53191
