                                   Released:  July 20, 1998 


By the Chief, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:

  This Erratum makes minor corrections to the text and final rules adopted in the
Second Report and Order in the above-captioned proceeding, FCC 98-157, which was
released on July 14, 1998.  A corrected version of the Second Report and Order will
be published in the Federal Register and FCC Record.


  1.  Paragraph 37 of the Second Report and Order is revised to read as follows:

     As discussed above, we will permit partitioning along any service area
  defined by the parties.  To this end, the Commission requires sufficient
  information to maintain our licensing records.  Therefore, consistent with our
  treatment of the WCS and 800 MHz and 900 MHz SMR services, partitioning
  applicants will be required to submit, as separate attachments to the partial
  assignment application, a description of the partitioned service area and a
  calculation of the population of the partitioned service area and licensed
  market.  The partitioned service area must be defined by coordinate points at
  every three degrees along the partitioned service area agreed to by both
  parties, unless county lines are followed.  These geographical coordinates
  must be specified in degrees, minutes and seconds to the nearest second of
  latitude and longitude, and must be based upon the 1927 North American Datum
  (NAD27).  Applicants also may supply geographical coordinates based on 1983
  North American Datum (NAD83) in addition to those required based on NAD27.  This
  coordinate data should be supplied as an attachment to the partial assignment
  application, and maps need not be supplied.  In cases where county lines are
  being utilized, applicants need only list the specific counties that make up
  the newly partitioned area.


  2.  Section 90.365(b) of the Commission's rules is corrected by deleting
language to conform it to paragraph 37 of the Second Report and Order so that it
reads as follows:
                                 
   90.365  Partitioned licenses and disaggregated spectrum.

                              *****

(b)  Technical Requirements--In the case of partitioning, requests for
authorization for partial assignment of a license must include, as attachments, a
description of the partitioned service area, and a calculation of the population
of the partitioned service area and the licensed geographic service area.  The
partitioned service area shall be defined by coordinate points at every three
degrees along the partitioned service area unless county lines are followed.  The
geographic coordinates must be specified in degrees, minutes, and seconds to the
nearest second of latitude and longitude and must be based upon the 1927 North
American Datum (NAD27).  Applicants may supply geographical coordinates based on
1983 North American Datum (NAD83) in addition to those required based on NAD27.  In
the case where county lines are utilized, applicants need only list the specific
area(s) (through use of county names) that constitute the partitioned area.
  
                              *****


  3.  Section 90.365 of the Commission's rules is corrected to conform to
paragraph 41 of the Second Report and Order by deleting paragraph (d) and renaming
paragraph (e) to read as follows:
                                 
   90.365  Partitioned licenses and disaggregated spectrum.

                              *****

(d)  Construction requirements --(1) Requirements for partitioning.  

                              *****


  4.  New Subpart X of Part 90 is added to provide a separate subpart for
competitive bidding rules, consistent with the structure used in the remainder of
Part 90 of the Commission's rules.  A new rule, Section 90.1101, is added to specify
that mutually exclusive applications for Location and Monitoring Service licenses
are subject to competitive bidding, and former Section 90.364 of Appendix C of the
Second Report and Order is redesignated as Section 90.1103 of Subpart X.  New
Subpart X reads as follows:

  Subpart X -- Competitive Bidding Procedures 

   90.1101  Location and Monitoring Service subject to competitive bidding.

  Mutually exclusive initial applications for multilateration Location and
Monitoring Service licenses are subject to competitive bidding procedures.  The
procedures set forth in Part 1, Subpart Q of this chapter will apply unless
otherwise provided in this part.

   90.1103  Designated entities.
