Abstract

In this document, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB or Bureau) prescribes the form by which eligible C-band space station operators should submit Phase I Certifications of Accelerated Relocation (Certifications) and establishes the process by which stakeholders can file related challenges to those Certifications. Expanding Flexible Use of the 3.7 to 4.2 GHz Band Report and Order, GN Docket No. 18-122, Report and Order and Order of Proposed Modification, FCC 20-22 (Mar. 3, 2020) (3.7 GHz Report and Order), required that, in order to be eligible for an Accelerated Relocation Payment (ARP), an eligible space station operator must file a Certification "demonstrating, in good faith, that it has completed the necessary clearing actions to satisfy each deadline." An eligible space station operator is required to complete its obligations and then file a Certification by the applicable Accelerated Relocation Deadline, which for Phase I is December 5, 2021. Certifications should be filed both in GN Docket No. 18-122 and in GN Docket No. 21-320; stakeholders should file any related challenges in GN Docket No. 21-320.
