VARIATION TO LICENCE AREA PLAN – COOMA – NOVEMBER 2003
VARIATION
The Australian Broadcasting Authority herby varies the licence area plan (LAP) for radio in the Cooma region of NSW, determined in June 1999, under subsection 26(2) of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992.
The variation makes a number of changes to the Cooma LAP, as set out below:
Service Category | Service Licence No | Technical Specification No | Frequency | Attach No | Area Served | Status |
Commercial | SL4138 | TS10008425 | 92.5 MHz | 1.11 | Bombala | Vary |
Commercial | SL10345 | TS10008266 | 91.7 MHz | 1.19 | Bombala | Vary |
Community | SL1150162 | TS10013018 | 103.7 MHz | 2.5 | Bombala | Add |
Open Narrowcasting | N/A | TS10008254 | 90.9 MHz | 1.26 | Bombala | Delete |
Open Narrowcasting | N/A | TS10012792 | 104.5 MHz | 1.26.1 | Bombala | Add |
The licence area of the existing commercial radio services has been redefined using 2001 Census boundaries, but otherwise remains unchanged.
Determined by the Australian Broadcasting Authority on 6 November 2003
SCHEDULES
- Each of the Schedules sets out:
- the category of each of the services that are to be available in that area (column one).
- the status of the service (column two) does not form part of the licence area plan decision and is included for reference only.
- the frequency for each transmitter (column three) does not form part of the licence area plan decision and is included for reference only.
- the service licence number which has been allocated to the service, if appropriate (column four); N/A = Not Applicable, as the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 only requires service licences for Commercial and Community services.
- the number of transmitters required to transmit the service,
- the transmitter specification number which has been allocated to each transmitter (column five),
- the identifying number of the attachment where the technical specifications for each transmitter are described (column six). (Each set of technical specifications referred to in the Schedules is an attachment to this determination).
- the general area served by each transmitter (column seven).
Status Column
Licensed : service is already licensed
Available : new licence available for allocation
Proposed : transmitter for existing broadcasting service licence
Alternative : alternative channel proposed for licensed service
Reserved : capacity reserved for a national or community service in
accordance with Ministerial notification
Frequency Column
- The frequency shown is the centre frequency of the channel.
The information in the frequency column is provided as additional information to the licence area plan, and is accurate as at the date of publication.
For ease of reference, the schedule affected by this variation to the LAP has been updated to reflect the variation to this plan.
Schedule One of the Cooma LAP prior to the variation is reproduced below.
