Instructions for Schedule for Modification of a Geographically Licensed Lease or Sublease

to Add, Modify or Delete Technical Location Information

for International Coordination, Environmental Assessment, or Quiet Zone Location

FCC Form 608, Schedule C

Schedule C is a supplementary schedule that is used to provide information regarding a Modification of a Geographically Licensed Lease or Sublease to add, modify or delete technical location information for locations that require International Coordination, an Environmental Assessment, or are located in a Quiet Zone. All filings for Subleases must be filed manually and sent to the appropriate address. The mailing address can be found under the Application Fees and Filing Locations section found on page 8 of the Main Form Instructions.

Location Detail

Item 1 This item must be completed. It indicates the action that the applicant wants the FCC to take with respect to the specified location. Enter ‘A’ for add, ‘M’ for Modify, or ‘D’ for Delete.

Item 2 This item must be completed. If the location has been previously licensed by the FCC under this lease or sublease, enter its FCC-assigned location number. For a new location, assign a temporary code to represent the location. This temporary code should begin with ‘L’ to indicate it is a location and end with a number to uniquely identify it (e.g., L1, L2, L3, etc.). The FCC will assign an official number to the new location.

Items 3 and 4 This item must be completed. Enter the geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) of the location.

Enter the latitude using the format DD-MM-SS, where the degrees (DD) term can have a value in the range of 0 to 72, minutes (MM) can range from 0 to 59, and seconds (SS) can range from 0 to 59.9. If desired, seconds can be rounded to the nearest tenth of a second (in which case, use the format DD-MM-SS.S). In the right corner, specify the direction as either N for North or S for South.

Enter the longitude using the format DDD-MM-SS, where the degrees (DDD) term can have a value in the range of 64 to 180, minutes (MM) can range from 0 to 59, and seconds (SS) can range from 0 to 59.9. If desired, seconds can be rounded to the nearest tenth of a second (in which case, use the format DDD-MM-SS.S). In the right corner, specify the direction as either E for East or W for West.

All coordinates must be referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). This information can be determined in many ways, including a GPS receiver, a 7.5-minute topographical guadrangle map of the area, or you may consult the city or county/borough/parish or equivalent entity surveyor in your area. Topographical maps may be purchased from the U.S. Geological Survey, Washington, DC 20242 or from its office in Denver, Colorado 80225.

Note: Location coordinates (latitude and longitude) for sites in the Continental United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, and Guam must be referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). Coordinates for sites in the Northern Mariana Islands, Wake Island, and Midway Island should be referenced to the applicable local datum. If the source from which you obtain the coordinates still utilizes an older datum (i.e., NAD27, PRD40) you must convert to NAD83. Conversion routines are available through the internet at http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/utilities/nadcon.html.

Item 5 Enter the city or town name for the location in this item.
