Website for Frequency Coordination Request

Submission of a request for FAA frequency coordination is required “on occasion to request and/or continue frequency use” as needed by the proponent. Reporting of this information by respondents is mandatory upon each occasion. The information is used by the FAA Spectrum Engineering and Assignment Organization (AJW-1C2) to complete the engineering required to adequately evaluate and engineer the proponent’s request. a.) The response to this data collection is required for the proponent to obtain FAA concurrence to use a radio frequency that impacts civil aviation. b.) Those entities who respond to this collection are proponents (individuals, corporations, organizations or agencies) who are seeking to broadcast on a radio frequency within the AAG frequencies as defined by the National Telecommunications and Information Agency (NTIA). c.) The information collected is used for analysis of the impact to aviation only, and the concurrence is disclosed to the requester and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) via the requester. d.) The FCC issued licenses for radio frequency transmission authorization must be renewed typically every 10 years, this requires the proponent to resubmit to the FAA under this collection, to extend the license period, if required every 10 years. Hence, the collection period is five years. e.) Information under this collection from proponents is comprised of technical specifications regarding the radio frequency transmitter (i.e. power, coordinates, signal characteristics, manufacturer) and is placed in the record which is sent to the NTIA and FCC as a part of its license process, along with the engineered frequency and the concurrence number generated by FAA. f.) The information collected through the WebFCR portal supports the engineering, modeling, validation and workflow management of the request to evaluate if the request interferes or impacts civil aviation operations pursuant to FAA Order 6050.32B. g) The record which is sent to the NTIA and FCC as a part of its license process, when approved by NTIA is added to the official Government Master File (GMF) by NTIA, as an official part of its record keeping process. FAA does not retain the information submitted via WebFCR in any FAA data record or information record, but maintains an updated copy of the GMF from NTIA for engineering purposes.
