X-#o\  PCXP#  X -Report No. DS1492 hhCqpp  )xxXDA 9596  X -` `  hhCq Released: February 6, 1995  Xc - INTERNATIONAL BUREAU ELIMINATES REDUNDANT FILING  ~`OF   X-! RADIATION HAZARD STUDIES \  X- }1.` ` Effective upon release of this Public Notice, earth station applicants and licensees  d(#will no longer be required to submit a Radiation Hazard Study for certain filings under Part 25  d(#of the Rules. These new procedures will streamline licensing of earth station applications by  d(#Leliminating redundant filings, while ensuring full compliance with antenna radiation standards.  d(#ZThis reform stems from suggestions made in the course of roundtable discussions with the public  d(#about ways in which the Bureau can further streamline processing, eliminate unnecessary regulations, and better serve the public interest.  X!- 2.` ` Background. Since January 1, 1986, all new earth station applications and  d(#Mapplications for modification or renewal of an existing station license have been required to  X- d(#kcertify whether grant of the application will have a significant environmental impact. See 47  X- d(#lC.F.R.  1.1307(b); and Memorandum Opinion and Order, 50 Fed. Reg. 38653 (1985). The  d(#applicant makes this initial determination by preparing a Radiation Hazard Study, in which the  d(#Kapplicant assesses the radiofrequency (RF) radiation levels in the region around the antenna, and  d(#compares those findings to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommended  X - d(#guidelines. See Public Notice, No. DS1231 (released Sept. 29, 1992). If there are no potential  d(#hazards and no applicable limits are exceeded, the applicant certifies compliance on the  XR"- d(#japplication form. See, e.g., FCC Form 493, "Application for Earth Station Authorization and for  d(#Modification of Station License," Question No. 25. Should the RF radiation levels exceed the  d(#ANSI guidelines, the applicant must file an Environmental Assessment (EA), including an exhibit  X %- d(#explaining action as necessary to bring the proposal into compliance. See Public Notice, Report No. DS1331 (released July 15, 1993). X&,,,XX&3X! | X  X-  a3.` ` Streamlined Filing Requirements. Applicants have routinely filed Radiation  d(#Hazard Studies as exhibits to all earth station filings: new applications, renewals, requests for  d(#modification, and assignment and transfer applications. Usually these exhibits are offered to  d(#support the ANSI guideline compliance certification or the EA documentation. The Commission  d(#evaluates this data for adverse environmental impact prior to grant of any earth station  d(#-application. Once this documentation is on file, however, there is no longer a need for redundant  d(#filings of the same information. The filing of identical, subsequent Radiation Hazard Studies  d(#constitutes an unnecessary burden on applicants, and causes unwarranted delay in the processing  X1-of applications.  X - 4.` ` Accordingly, applicants are no longer required to file a Radiation Hazard Study in the following situations:  X - _1) ` ` renewal applications for earth station antennas originally licensed after January 1, 1986;(#`  Xy- 2)` ` requests for modifications to earth stations licensed after January 1, 1986 that do  Xb-  2not involve: (a) an increase in EIRP or EIRP density; (b) an increase in transmitter  power; (c) any change in coordinates for stations operating in Cband; (d) a  nchange in coordinates of 10 seconds or greater for stations operating in Kuband; or (e) any change or addition to antenna facilities.(#`  X- _5.` ` Applicants are further reminded that Section 1.1307 does not apply to assignment  d(#or transfer applications. Therefore, Radiation Hazard Studies are not required for these applications.  X- $6.` ` This Public Notice does not alter an applicant's or licensee's responsibility for  d(#compliance with Section 1.1307. It simply eliminates submissions of Radiation Hazard Studies already on file at the Commission.  X7- 7.` ` Interested persons with a suggestion that will improve the Bureau's ability to serve  d(#the public are urged to call or write Scott Blake Harris, Chief, International Bureau, Suite 800, 2000 M Street, N.W., Stop Code 0800, Washington, D.C. 20554, (202) 7390422.
