Overview of Reconfiguration Prioritization Plan:
>
Freeze Dates for New License Applications
Freeze Dates for New License Applications
Upon release of the Starter Public Notice for each voluntary negotiation period, the
FCC will freeze the acceptance of most 800 MHz applications within, and up to 70 miles
outside of the affected 800 MHz NPSPAC region(s). This freeze will be effective until
30 working days after the end of the mandatory negotiation period for the region(s).
Within each Wave, there will be two freeze periods, one for all non-NPSPAC 800 MHz
frequencies, and another for 800 MHz NPSPAC Channels.
For certain licensees, a Special Temporary Authorization (STA) issued by the FCC may be
needed to successfully complete reconfiguration. Additional information on obtaining
STAs related to 800 MHz Reconfiguration is available in the STA Fact Sheet at
http://800ta.org/content/PDF/reconfiguration_materials/STA_FS.pdf
The TA originally used the FCC's guidance and the approved Regional Prioritization Plan dates
to calculate the dates in the chart below. The dates provided by the TA are for general
guidance only. The FCC generally issues a Public Notice 30 days prior to the start of each
Wave/Stage that will determine the actual dates associated with the Wave/Stage in question.
Licensees should not rely on the TA calculated freeze dates to determine the deadline for
filing an application. The freeze dates in the chart below are the dates published by the FCC.
Licensees should confirm them, as the end dates are subject to change.
