1、682 47 CFR Ch. I (10110 Edition) 4.13 Web-based outage report templates. If there are technical impediments to using the Web-based system during the Notification stage, then a written Noti-fication to the Commission by e-mail, FAX, or courier may be used; such No-tification shall contain the informa
2、-tion required. All hand-delivered Noti-fications and Initial and Final Commu-nications Outage Reports, shall be ad-dressed to the Federal Communica-tions Commission, The Office of Sec-retary, Attention: Chief, Public Safety (2) Forward a report of the outage to the Commission, designating the out-a
3、ge as one affecting special facili-ties, but reporting it at a level of de-tail that precludes identification of the particular facility involved; or (3) Hold the report at the NCS due to the critical nature of the application. (b) If there is to be a report to the Commission, an electronic, written
4、, or oral report will be given by the NCS within 120 minutes of an outage to the Commissions Duty Officer, on duty 24 hours a day in the FCCs Communica-tions and Crisis Management Center in Washington, DC. Notification may be served at such other facility designated by the Commission by public notic
5、e or (at the time of the emergency) by pub-lic announcement only if there is a telephone outage or similar emergency in Washington, DC. If the report is oral, it is to be followed by an elec-tronic or written report not later than the next business day. Those providers whose service failures are in
6、any way responsible for the outage must consult and cooperate in good faith with NCS upon its request for information. (c) Additionally, if there is to be a re-port to the Commission, the commu-nications provider will provide a writ-ten report to the NCS, supplying the information for final reports
7、for special facilities required by this section of the Commissions rules. The commu-nications providers final report to the NCS will be filed within 28 days after the outage, allowing the NCS to then file the report with the Commission within 30 days after the outage. If the outage is reportable as
8、described in paragraph (b) of this section, and the NCS determines that the final report can be presented to the Commission without jeopardizing matters of na-tional security or emergency prepared-ness, the NCS will forward the report as provided in either paragraphs (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this section

17、e licenses for radio stations. (b) The purpose of this part is to pre-scribe the manner in which parts of the radio frequency spectrum may be made available for experimentation as de-fined and provided for in this part. 5.3 Scope of service. Stations operating in the Experi-mental Radio Service will
18、 be permitted to conduct the following type of oper-ations: (a) Experimentations in scientific or technical radio research. (b) Experimentations under contrac-tual agreement with the United States Government, or for export purposes. (c) Communications essential to a re-search project. (d) Technical
