Sec. 95.71  Applying for a new or modified license.

    (a) An individual applies for a license for a new GMRS system by 
filling out an application form and attaching all additional information 
required. An individual applies to modify a license for an existing GMRS 
system using the same form and in the same manner as applying for a new 
GMRS system. Individuals should submit their applications, together with 
the filing fee, to the address specified in the Private Radio Services 
Fee Filing Guide.
    (b) An applicant for a General Mobile Radio Service system license, 
sharing a multiply-licensed mobile relay station, may operate the system 
for a period of 180 days, under a Temporary Permit, evidenced by a 
properly-executed certification made on FCC Form 574-T, after mailing 
FCC Form 574 to the Commission.
    (c) The application will be returned to the applicant if it is 
defective. An application is defective if:
    (1) The form is not completely filled out;
    (2) All necessary additional information is not included; or
    (3) All necessary certifications have not been made (see, e.g., 
Sec. 95.75 (g)(2), (o) and (p)).
    (d) The Commission may, without a hearing, grant an application in 
part or subject to terms or conditions or with privileges other than 
those requested. Such an action is presumed to be a grant of the 
application unless the applicant files a written rejection of the grant 
as made within 30 days from the date of the grant or the effective date 
of the grant, whichever is later. If the Commission receives rejection 
of such a grant, the Commission will vacate its original action and will 
set the application for hearing.
    (e) A non-individual may not obtain a new GMRS system license. A 
non-individual that held a GMRS system license issued before July 31, 
1987, may not make the following major modifications:
    (1) Change the area of operation of the GMRS system;
    (2) Add any stations to the GMRS system;
    (3) Increase the number of units of the mobile station;
    (4) Change the location of any land station in the GMRS system;
    (5) Add one or more channels or channel pairs and/or change the 
assigned channel(s) or channel pair(s);
    (6) Increase the transmitter power of an station in the GMRS system; 
or
    (7) Increase the height of a station antenna in the GMRS system.
    (f) A GMRS system licensee may notify the FCC of a change of name or 
a change of mailing address by sending a letter to the Federal 
Communications Commission, 1270 Fairfield Road, Gettysburg, PA 17325-
7245. This does not, however, permit GMRS system license transferability 
(see Sec. 95.109). Nor does this suffice for corporate transfer of 
control--the provisions of Sec. 95.111 apply instead.
