§ 1.923   Content of applications.

   (a) General. Applications must contain all information requested on the
   applicable form and any additional information required by the rules in this
   chapter and any rules pertaining to the specific service for which the
   application is filed.

   (b) Reference to material on file. Questions on application forms that call
   for specific technical data, or that can be answered yes or no or with
   another short answer, must be answered on the form. Otherwise, if documents,
   exhibits, or other lengthy showings already on file with the FCC contain
   information required in an application, the application may incorporate such
   information by reference, provided that:

   (1) The referenced information has been filed in ULS or, if manually filed
   outside of ULS, the information comprises more than one “81⁄2 × 11” page.

   (2) The referenced information is current and accurate in all material
   respects; and

   (3) The application states specifically where the referenced information can
   actually be found, including:

   (i) The station call sign or application file number and its location if the
   reference is to station files or previously filed applications;

   (ii)  The  title  of  the proceeding, the docket number, and any legal
   citations, if the reference is to a docketed proceeding.

   (c) Antenna locations. Applications for stations at fixed locations must
   describe each transmitting antenna site by its geographical coordinates and
   also  by  its  street  address,  or by reference to a nearby landmark.
   Geographical coordinates, referenced to NAD83, must be specified in degrees,
   minutes, and seconds to the nearest second of latitude and longitude.

   (d) Antenna structure registration. Owners of certain antenna structures
   must  notify the Federal Aviation Administration and register with the
   Commission as required by part 17 of this chapter. Applications proposing
   the use of one or more new or existing antenna structures must contain the
   FCC Antenna Structure Registration Number(s) of each structure for which
   registration is required. To facilitate frequency coordination or for other
   purposes, the Bureau shall accept for filing an application that does not
   contain the FCC Antenna Structure Registration Number so long as;

   (1) The antenna structure owner has filed an antenna structure registration
   application (FCC Form 854);

   (2) The antenna structure owner has provided local notice and the Commission
   has  posted  notification of the proposed construction on its Web site
   pursuant to § 17.4(c)(3) and (4) of this chapter; and

   (3) The antenna structure owner has obtained a Determination of No Hazard to
   Aircraft  Navigation from the Federal Aviation Administration. In such
   instances, the applicant shall provide the FCC Form 854 File Number on its
   application. Once the antenna structure owner has obtained the Antenna
   Structure Registration Number, the applicant shall amend its application to
   provide the Antenna Structure Registration Number, and the Commission shall
   not grant the application before the Antenna Structure Registration Number
   has been provided. If registration is not required, the applicant must
   provide information in its application sufficient for the Commission to
   verify this fact.

   (e) Environmental concerns. (1) Environmental processing shall be completed
   pursuant  to the process set forth in § 17.4(c) of this chapter for any
   facilities that use one or more new or existing antenna structures for which
   a  new or amended registration is required by part 17 of this chapter.
   Environmental  review  by  the  Commission  must be completed prior to
   construction.

   (2) For applications that propose any facilities that are not subject to the
   process set forth in § 17.4(c) of this chapter, the applicant is required to
   indicate at the time its application is filed whether or not a Commission
   grant  of  the application for those facilities may have a significant
   environmental  effect  as defined by § 1.1307. If the applicant answers
   affirmatively, an Environmental Assessment, required by § 1.1311 must be
   filed with the application and environmental review by the Commission must
   be completed prior to construction.

   (f) International coordination. Channel assignments and/or usage under this
   part are subject to the applicable provisions and requirements of treaties
   and other international agreements between the United States government and
   the governments of Canada and Mexico.

   (g)  Quiet zones. Each applicant is required to comply with the “Quiet
   Zone” rule (see § 1.924).

   (h)  Taxpayer  Identification  Number  (TINs). Wireless applicants and
   licensees, including all attributable owners of auctionable licenses as
   defined by § 1.2112 of this part, are required to provide their Taxpayer
   Identification  Numbers  (TINS)  (as defined in 26 U.S.C. 6109) to the
   Commission, pursuant to the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA).
   Under the DCIA, the FCC may use an applicant or licensee's TIN for purposes
   of collecting and reporting to the Department of the Treasury any delinquent
   amounts arising out of such person's relationship with the Government. The
   Commission will not publicly disclose applicant or licensee TINs unless
   authorized by law, but will assign a “public identification number” to each
   applicant or licensee registering a TIN. This public identification number
   will be used for agency purposes other than debt collection.

   (i)  Unless  an exception is set forth elsewhere in this chapter, each
   applicant must specify an address where the applicant can receive mail
   delivery by the United States Postal Service. This address will be used by
   the Commission to serve documents or direct correspondence to the applicant.

   [ 63 FR 68924 , Dec. 14, 1998, as amended at  64 FR 53238 , Oct. 1, 1999;  77 FR 3952 , Jan. 26, 2012]
