Microwave Relocation Rules; Comment Request for Blocks C Through F

By this Further Notice of Proposed Rule Making, the Commission seeks further comment on certain aspects of the microwave relocation rules for C, D, E, and F blocks. Specifically, the Commission seeks further comment on whether to adjust the negotiation periods by shortening the voluntary negotiation period and lengthening the mandatory negotiation period for the D, E, and F blocks, and whether the negotiation periods for the C block should be subject to the same adjustment. The Commission also seeks comment on whether microwave incumbents should be permitted to seek reimbursement from PCS licensees through participation in the cost-sharing plan. The Commission believes that the rules proposed herein, will expedite the clearing of the 2 GHz band in an equitable and efficient manner.
