Abstract
In the Second Report and Order, the Commission adopts the general competitive bidding rules and procedures for the auction of multilateration Location and Monitoring Service (LMS) licenses, provides small business definitions and adopts bidding credits for eligible small businesses. The effect will be to promote and facilitate the participation of small businesses in the Commission's auctions and in the provision of spectrum-based services. The Second Report and Order also adds rules to allow LMS licensees to partition their geographic licenses and disaggregate portions of their spectrum.
