FCC Seeks Comment on 900 MHz Waiver (8/20/12)
The FCC’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB) is asking for comments on a request for a waiver of Section 90.155(d) of the commission’s rules and an extension of time filed by Telesaurus Holdings and Skybridge Spectrum Foundation in the Multilateration and Location and Monitoring Service (M-LMS) to meet construction deadlines for their 900 MHz M-LMS Economic Area (EA) licenses.
FCC rules require licensees to either construct and place in operation a sufficient number of base stations that use multilateration location service to one-third of the EA’s population within five years of the initial license grant, and two-thirds of the population within ten years, or to provide substantial service to their licensed area within the appropriate five- and ten-year benchmarks.
Telesaurus, Skybridge and four other M-LMS licensees received an extension in 2008 that required them to meet the five-year construction requirement by July 19, 2012. Telesaurus and Skybridge are now seeking preferred extensions terms that would extend the construction deadline five to ten additional years.
The full order is available here.
