certification of the areas for which they 

are providing service. Construction 

notifications must include electronic 

coverage maps, supporting technical 

documentation, and any other 

information as the Wireless 

Telecommunications Bureau may 

prescribe by public notice. 

Section 27.14(s)—requires AWS–3 

licensees to make a ‘‘renewal showing’’ 

at the time of license renewal— 

independent of the performance 

requirements—as a condition of 

renewal. The showing must include a 

detailed description of the applicant’s 

provision of service during the entire 

license period and address: (1) The level 

and quality of service provided by the 

applicant (e.g., the population served, 

the area served, the number of 

subscribers, the services offered); (2) the 

date service commenced, whether 

service was ever interrupted, and the 

duration of any interruption or outage; 

(3) the extent to which service is 

provided to rural areas; (4) the extent to 

which service is provided to qualifying 

tribal land as defined in § 1.2110(f)(3)(i); 

and (5) any other factors associated with 

the level of service to the public. 

Section 27.17(c)—requires that an 

AWS–3 licensee that permanently 

discontinues service must notify the 

Commission of the discontinuance 

within 10 days by filing FCC Form 601 

or 605 requesting license cancellation. It 

also provides that an authorization will 

automatically terminate, without 

specific Commission action, if service is 

permanently discontinued, even if a 

licensee fails to file the required form 

requesting license cancellation. Sections 

27.17(a) and (b) define permanent 

discontinuation of service as 180 days 

during which a licensee does not 

provide service to at least one 

unaffiliated subscriber. 

Section 27.50(d)(3)—requires that a 

licensee operating an AWS–3 base or 

fixed station utilizing a power greater 

than 1640 watts EIRP or 1640 watts/

MHz EIRP must be coordinated in 

advance with the following licensees 

authorized to operate within 120 

kilometers (75 miles) of the base or fixed 

station: All Broadband Radio Service 

(BRS) licensees authorized in the 2155– 

2160 MHz band, and all AWS licensees 

authorized to operate on adjacent 

frequency blocks in the 2110–2180 MHz 

band. 

Section 27.1131—requires AWS–3 

licensees, prior to initiating operations 

from any base or fixed station, to 

coordinate their frequency usage with 

incumbent co-channel and adjacentchannel fixed point-to-point microwave 

licensees operating in the 2110–2150 

MHz and 2160–2200 MHz bands. If 

coordination does not resolve potential 

conflicts, an AWS licensee may 

undertake to relocate the FS stations 

under Part 101, Subpart B of the 

Commission’s rules. Although AWS–1 

licensees have relocated many FS legacy 

operations, AWS–3 licensees will likely 

have to relocate some remaining 

incumbents, resulting in disclosures 

described below. Under section 101.79 

of the Commission’s rules, these 

requirements will sunset ten years after 

the first AWS license is issued in the 

band. 

Section 27.1132—requires AWS–3 

licensees in the 2155–2160/62 MHz 

band to protect BRS stations from 

interference or to relocate them prior to 

initiating operations. Under section 

27.1253 of the Commission’s rules, 

these requirements will sunset fifteen 

years after the first AWS license is 

issued in the band. 

Section 27.1134(c)—requires AWS–3 

licensees to coordinate with Federal 

Government incumbents before 

commencing operations in the 1695– 

1710 MHz band. For transmitters 

operating with a maximum EIRP of 20 

dBm, coordination is required inside 27 

specific Protection Zones detailed in 

U.S. note 88 to section 2.106 of the 

Commission’s rules and in the 2014 

Joint PN. For higher-powered 

operations, § 27.1134(c) and U.S. note 

88 to § 2.106 both require coordination 

nationwide unless otherwise specified 

by FCC rule, order, or notice. The 2014 

Joint PN (see below) refined the 

nationwide default zone for higherpower operations by adding 27 

Protection Zones (larger than the zones 

for operations up to 20 dBm, to account 

for the higher power). 

Section 27.1134(f)—requires AWS–3 

licensees to coordinate with Federal 

Government incumbents before 

commencing operations in the 1755– 

1780 MHz band. While the default 

coordination requirement for this band 

is nationwide, the 2014 Joint PN (see 

below) effectively reduced the scope of 

coordination to specific Protection 

Zones for many AWS–3 licensees that 

limit transmitter power to 20 dBm EIRP.

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize
