Schedule for Required Notifications

for Wireless Services

Form FCC 601, Schedule K, is a supplementary schedule for use with the FCC Application for Radio Service Authorization: Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and/or Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, FCC 601 Main Form. The FCC 601 Main Form must be filed in conjunction with this schedule. Complete this schedule to notify the FCC that, within the required time period:

• Either buildout/coverage or construction requirements have been satisfied;

• Compliance with yearly station construction commitments for Licensees with approved extended implementation plans has been met;

• To request a regular authorization for paging facilities currently operating under developmental authority.

Item 1 – Purpose

Enter the one‑letter abbreviation that indicates the purpose for which the application is being filed (1, 2, 3, 4, T, S, D, G, or H).

Note: Only one Notification purpose code may be selected per FCC 601 Main Form/Schedule K filing.

Note: Cellular Radiotelephone Services (CL) should use the Construction Requirements portion of this schedule.

Satisfaction of Buildout/Coverage Requirements (Market-based services and State License Radio Service (SL) only)

Purpose Codes 1, 2, 3, 4 or T - Choose from these purpose codes if this notification is for satisfaction of buildout/coverage requirements. Typically, buildout/coverage requirements apply when a specific portion of a geographic area and a specific portion of the population contained within that geographic area must be provided service by a specific date. Not all radio services use all buildout/coverage requirements. Refer to the Commission’s rules for more information on buildout/coverage requirements and how they may apply to your service.

Enter one of the following Notification Purpose Codes in Item 1:

Enter ‘1' if 1st buildout/coverage requirement has been satisfied.

Enter ‘2' if 2nd buildout/coverage requirement has been satisfied.

Enter ‘3' if 3rd buildout/coverage requirement has been satisfied.

Enter ‘4' if 4th buildout/coverage requirement has been satisfied.

Enter ‘T’ if the tribal lands buildout/coverage requirement has been satisfied. A ‘T’ in this field indicates that the requirement has been met for all tribal lands in the market for which bidding credit was awarded.

Note: In instances where both the first and the second buildout/coverage requirements have been satisfied at the time when the first notification requirement is due, use the highest level purpose of submission code to file the Required Notification. For example: If the first coverage deadline is March 1, 2001 and the second is March 1, 2006 and you met your 2006 coverage requirements by March 1, 2001, use the purpose of submission code ‘2’ and submit the require documentation. You do not need a separate application for each coverage deadline.

Satisfaction of Construction Requirements (Site-licensed services only)

Purpose Code ‘S’- Choose this purpose code if this notification is for satisfaction of construction requirements. Typically, construction requirements apply when specific authorized components of a license must be constructed and service commenced by a specific date. Refer to the Commission’s rules for more information on construction requirements and how they may apply to your service.

Request for Regular Authorization for Facilities Previously Operating under Developmental Authority

Purpose Code ‘D’- Choose this purpose code if this is a notification to request regular authorization for paging facilities previously operating under developmental authority.

Note: This is for Paging Services only.

Extended Implementation (Slow Growth)

Purpose Codes ‘G’ or ‘H’ – Choose from one of these purpose codes if this is a notification of compliance with station construction commitments for Land Mobile Licensees with approved extended implementation plans. Refer to 47 CFR §§ 90.629 and 90.155 for more information on Extended Implementation.

Enter purpose code ‘G’ in Item 1 for yearly notification compliance.

Enter purpose code ‘H’ in Item 1 for final notification compliance.

Note: This is for Land Mobile Radio Services only.

Item 2 - Call Signs/Locations or Paths/Frequencies

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING LOCATION AND PATH NUMBERS: To identify existing locations or paths, you must use the location and path numbers assigned by the Universal Licensing System (ULS). These numbers may not be identical to the location and path numbers on your current authorization if that authorization was not issued by the Universal Licensing System. If you are unsure of the location or path number that corresponds to a particular location or path, you can query the ULS for the most up-to-date information regarding your authorization. To query the ULS license database for your call sign, point your web browser to http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls and click on Search - Licenses. Alternatively, you may call (877) 480‑3201 (TTY 717-338-2824) for assistance.

For notification of a request for regular paging authorization for facilities previously operating under developmental authority (purpose code ‘D’), only complete those items necessary to describe what has been constructed. For example, to notify of construction of a site under a call sign, only complete Items 2a and 2b.

For notification of compliance with yearly station construction commitments for Licensees with approved extended implementation plans (purpose code ‘G’), only complete Item 2a.

For notification of compliance for final station construction commitments for Licensees with approved extended implementation plans (purpose code ‘H’), complete Item 2, as applicable.

Item 2a In this item, list the call signs. Call signs are located on FCC Authorizations.

Item 2c In this item list the path numbers where construction requirements have been satisfied. Path numbers are located on FCC Authorizations and are only used in the Microwave Radio Services.

Items 2d and 2e In this item list the frequencies, in Megahertz (MHz), where construction requirements have been satisfied. Enter the center (assigned) frequency, or the lower frequency of a frequency band, in Item 2d. If applicable, enter the upper frequency of a frequency band in Item 2e. Authorized frequencies are located on FCC Authorizations.
