Sec.  90.375   RSU license areas, communication zones and registrations

   (a) DSRCS Roadside Units (RSUs) in the 5850–5925 MHz band are licensed on
   the basis of non-exclusive geographic areas. Governmental applicants will be
   issued a geographic area license based on the geo-political area
   encompassing the legal jurisdiction of the entity. All other applicants will
   be issued a geographic area license for their proposed area of operation
   based on county(s), state(s) or nationwide.

   (b) Applicants who are approved in accordance with FCC Form 601 will be
   granted non-exclusive licenses for all non-reserved DSRCS frequencies (see
    Sec. 90.377). Such licenses serve as a prerequisite of registering individual
   RSUs located within the licensed geographic area described in paragraph (a)
   of this section. Licensees must register each RSU in the Universal Licensing
   System (ULS) before operating such RSU. RSU registrations are subject, inter
   alia, to the requirements of  Sec. 1.923 of this chapter as applicable (antenna
   structure registration, environmental concerns, international coordination,
   and quiet zones). Additionally, RSUs at locations subject to NTIA
   coordination (see  Sec. 90.371(b) may not begin operation until NTIA -approval is
   received. Registrations are not effective until the Commission posts them on
   the ULS.

   (c) Licensees must operate each RSU in accordance with the Commission's
   Rules and the registration data posted on the ULS for such RSU. Licensees
   must register each RSU for the smallest communication zone needed (for the
   DSRC-based intelligent transportation systems application) using one of the
   following four communication zones:

\1\ The ASTM-DSRC Standard is incorporated by reference in accordance
  with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51 and approved by The Director of
  the Federal Register. Copies may be inspected at the Federal
  Communications Commission, 445 12th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20554
  or National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). For
  information on the availability of this material at NARA, call 202-741-
  6030, or go to: http://www.archives.gov/federal_register/
  code_of_federal_regulations/ibr_locations.html. Copies of the ASTM
  E2213-03 DSRC Standard can be obtained from ASTM International, 100
  Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959.
  Copies may also be obtained from ASTM via the Internet at http://
  www.astm.org. The ASTM-DSRC Standard limits output power to 28.8 dBm
  but allows more power to overcome cable losses to the antenna as long
  as the antenna input power does not exceed 28.8 dBm and the EIRP does
  not exceed 44.8 dBm. However, specific channels and categories of uses
  have additional limitations under the ASTM-DSRC Standard.
