# 30.504 Military priority on 37-37.2 GHz.

(a) Federal military operations have priority in the 37-37.2 GHz band (priority access). Non-Federal licensees can register and deploy sites in the 37-37.2 GHz band, but must modify or cease operations in the future if those operations conflict with later-deployed military operations. A licensee's operations in this band will not be protected from harmful interference from subsequent military deployments.

(b) If a licensee is notified that its operations conflict with incoming military operations and priority access has been invoked, the licensee must work with the Federal military operator in good faith to either modify service to be consistent so it does not conflict with the military operations or cease operations if coexistence is not possible.
