Sec.  101.82   Reimbursement and relocation expenses in the 2110–2150 MHz and
2160–2200 MHz bands.

   (a) Whenever an ET licensee (including Mobile-Satellite Service licensees)
   in the 2110–2150 or 2160–2200 MHz bands relocates an incumbent paired
   microwave link with one path in the 2110–2150 MHz band and the paired path
   in the 2160–2200 MHz band, the ET licensee is entitled to reimbursement of
   50% of its relocation costs from any subsequently entering ET licensee which
   would have been required to relocate the same fixed microwave link.

   (b) The subsequently entering ET licensee must reimburse the relocating ET
   licensee before the subsequently entering licensee may begin operations in
   these bands, unless the subsequently entering ET licensee can demonstrate
   that, according to established interference criteria, it would not have
   interfered with the microwave link in question.

   (c) The total costs of which 50% is to be reimbursed will not exceed
   $250,000 per paired fixed microwave link relocated, nor $150,000 if a new or
   modified tower is required.
