Background

    The Commission inadvertently included typographical errors in 
certain final rules published in the Federal Register dated August 23, 
1999, (64 FR 45891). This correction amends those typographical errors. 
This correction also amends Sec. 101.56(i) to comport with the 
Commission's decision in the Memorandum Opinion and Order to allow 39 
GHz licensees that obtain a bidding credit at auction to subsequently 
partition or disaggregate subject to the Commission's unjust enrichment 
rules, the substance of which was not reflected in the final 
regulations.
