§ 101.63   Period of construction; certification of completion of construction.

   (a)  Each  Station, except in Multichannel Video Distribution and Data
   Service, Local Multipoint Distribution Services, 24 GHz Service, and the
   38.6-40.0 GHz band, authorized under this part must be in operation within
   18 months from the initial date of grant.

   (b) For the 70 GHz, 80 GHz, and 90 GHz bands, the 12-month construction
   period will commence on the date of each registration of each individual
   link;  adding  links will not change the overall renewal period of the
   license.

   (c)  Failure to timely begin operation means the authorization cancels
   automatically.

   (d) The frequencies associated with all point-to-multipoint authorizations
   which  have cancelled automatically or otherwise been recovered by the
   Commission will again be made available for reassignment on a date and under
   terms set forth by Public Notice. See § 101.1331(d) for treatment of MAS
   incumbent site-by-site licenses recovered in EAs.

   (e) Requests for extension of time may be granted upon a showing of good
   cause pursuant to § 1.946(e) of this chapter.

   (f) Construction of any authorized facility or frequency must be completed
   by the date specified in the license as pursuant to § 1.946 of this chapter.

   (g) MVPD licensees which have both analog and digital emissions designators
   specified on the license and which already have, or may transition from
   analog  to  digital  operations,  or a combination of both, meet their
   completion of construction requirements and do not automatically surrender
   their  license provided they are using either set of emissions. If the
   licensee has completed the transition to digital, the license can remove the
   unused analog emission designators the next time a modification or renewal
   application is filed.
