§ 15.525   Coordination requirements.

   (a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC before the
   equipment may be used. The operator shall comply with any constraints on
   equipment usage resulting from this coordination.

   (b) The users of UWB imaging devices shall supply operational areas to the
   FCC  Office of Engineering and Technology, which shall coordinate this
   information   with   the   Federal  Government  through  the  National
   Telecommunications and Information Administration. The information provided
   by the UWB operator shall include the name, address and other pertinent
   contact  information  of the user, the desired geographical area(s) of
   operation, and the FCC ID number and other nomenclature of the UWB device.
   If the imaging device is intended to be used for mobile applications, the
   geographical area(s) of operation may be the state(s) or county(ies) in
   which the equipment will be operated. The operator of an imaging system used
   for fixed operation shall supply a specific geographical location or the
   address at which the equipment will be operated. This material shall be
   submitted to Frequency Coordination Branch, OET, Federal Communications
   Commission,  445  12th  Street,  SW, Washington, D.C. 20554, Attn: UWB
   Coordination.

   (c)  The  manufacturers, or their authorized sales agents, must inform
   purchasers  and users of their systems of the requirement to undertake
   detailed  coordination  of operational areas with the FCC prior to the
   equipment being operated.

   (d) Users of authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other
   qualified users and to different locations upon coordination of change of
   ownership or location to the FCC and coordination with existing authorized
   operations.

   (e) The FCC/NTIA coordination report shall identify those geographical areas
   within  which  the  operation of an imaging system requires additional
   coordination  or  within  which  the operation of an imaging system is
   prohibited. If additional coordination is required for operation within
   specific geographical areas, a local coordination contact will be provided.
   Except for operation within these designated areas, once the information
   requested on the UWB imaging system is submitted to the FCC no additional
   coordination  with  the FCC is required provided the reported areas of
   operation  do  not  change.  If the area of operation changes, updated
   information  shall  be submitted to the FCC following the procedure in
   paragraph (b) of this section.

   (f) The coordination of routine UWB operations shall not take longer than 15
   business days from the receipt of the coordination request by NTIA. Special
   temporary operations may be handled with an expedited turn-around time when
   circumstances warrant. The operation of UWB systems in emergency situations
   involving the safety of life or property may occur without coordination
   provided a notification procedure, similar to that contained in § 2.405(a)
   through (e) of this chapter, is followed by the UWB equipment user.
