§  22.737   Temporary fixed stations.

   The FCC may, upon proper application therefor, authorize the
   construction and operation of temporary fixed stations. Temporary fixed
   stations are to be used as rural subscriber, interoffice, or central
   office stations when those stations are unavailable or when service
   from those stations is disrupted by storms or emergencies.

   (a) Six month limitation . If it is necessary for a temporary fixed
   station to remain at the same location for more than six months, the
   licensee of that station must apply for authorization to operate the
   station at the specific location at least 30 days before the end of the
   six month period.

   (b) International communications . Communications between the United
   States and Canada or Mexico must not be carried using a temporary fixed
   station without prior authorization from the FCC. Licensees desiring to
   carry such communications should apply sufficiently in advance to allow
   for the time necessary to coordinate with Canada or Mexico.
