5  Spectrum re-allocation
 (1) The part of the spectrum from 3575 MHz to 3700 MHz is subject to re‑allocation under Part 3.6 of the Act:
 (a) by issuing spectrum licences under Subdivision B of Division 1 of Part 3.2 of the Act (see section 153L of the Act); and
 (b) with respect to the named area in the table in subsection (3).
 (2) For this spectrum re-allocation declaration:
 (a) the re-allocation period is the period of 7 years beginning at the start of the 21st day after this instrument commences; and
 (b) the re-allocation deadline is the end of the day before the first anniversary of the start of the re-allocation period.
 (3) The area (named area) referred to in column 1 in the following table is to be ascertained as the composite of the areas, described using identifiers from the Hierarchical Cell Identification Scheme, set out in column 2.
Note 1: The HCIS is a naming convention for areas on the Australian Spectrum Map Grid 2012 (ASMG), which is a system used by the ACMA to define geographic areas for radiocommunications licensing. A document describing the ASMG and HCIS, as well as spatial datasets describing each HCIS area could, at the time this instrument was made, be found on the ACMA's website (http://www.acma.gov.au).
Note 2: A tool to convert lists of HCIS area descriptions, such as the list contained in the below table, into Placemark files to allow these areas to be visualised using computer mapping software could, at the time this instrument was made, be found on the ACMA's website (http://www.acma.gov.au).
