EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This explanatory note is not part of the Significant New Activity Notice.)

A Significant New Activity Notice (SNAc Notice) is a legal document pursuant to subsection 81(4) of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999) issued by the Minister, that lists the activities for a given substance in Canada for which there has been no finding of toxicity under the CEPA 1999. The SNAc Notice sets out the appropriate information that must be sent to the Minister for assessment prior to the commencement of a new activity as described in the SNAc Notice.

Substances that are not listed on the Domestic Substances List can only be imported or manufactured by the person who has met the requirements under sections 81 or 106 of the CEPA 1999. Under section 86 of the CEPA 1999, in circumstances where a SNAc Notice is issued for a new substance, it is the responsibility of every person who transfers the physical possession or control of the substance to notify all persons to whom the possession or control is transferred of the obligation to comply with the SNAc Notice and of the obligation to notify of any new activity and all other information as described in the SNAc Notice. It is the responsibility of the users of the substance to be aware of and comply with the SNAc Notice and to submit a SNAc Notification to the Minister prior to the commencement of a significant new activity associated with the substance.

A SNAc Notice does not constitute an endorsement from Environment Canada of the substance to which it relates or an exemption from any other laws or regulations that are in force in Canada and that may apply to the substance or activities involving the substance.

DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY

RADIOCOMMUNICATION ACT

Notice No. DGTP-005-06 — Spectrum Utilization Policy, Technical and Licensing Requirements for Broadband Public Safety in the Band 4 940-4 990 MHz

Intent

The purpose of this notice is to announce the release of the above-mentioned spectrum document to accommodate public safety use of spectrum in the band 4 940-4 990 MHz.

Background

In July 2004, the Department added a primary mobile allocation in the band 4 940-4 990 MHz and designated its use for fixed and mobile systems in support of public safety. The Department indicated that the use of the band would be subject to further consultation regarding appropriate licensing and technical considerations.

Subsequently, the Department received comments from several Canadian public safety agencies in support of this allocation. These agencies stressed how critical the band 4 940-4 990 MHz is to advanced broadband technologies, in order to enable high-speed wireless transfers of large files, images and video, as well as intranet access, at specified locations. These agencies further stressed the importance of dedicated spectrum for broadband applications.

In July 2005, the Department released a consultation on the use of the band through Canada Gazette notice No. DGTP-005-05. This consultation proposed policy, technical and licensing considerations to accommodate public safety agencies' early implementation of critical broadband systems in the band 4 9404 990 MHz.

Consultation

Comments in response to the consultation generally supported the Department's proposals on use, applications, channelling plans, technical requirements and eligibility. Further comments, however, will be sought by the Department on the original proposed licensing fee in a separate Canada Gazette notice.

Discussion

The Department has worked diligently over the past years towards improving the critical communication and infrastructure of public safety agencies, as well as ensuring access to spectrum resources. The provision of public safety and national security services rely heavily on advanced communications. The need for new wireless technologies and radio applications has put significant pressure to find priority spectrum for these requirements. This release of Spectrum Utilization Policy 4 940 MHz represents an example of the Department's commitment to address the public safety and security spectrum needs.

Details of the spectrum policy, eligibility, technical and licensing provisions, including licensing fees, to allow public safety agencies' early implementation of critical broadband systems in the band 4 940-4 990 MHz, are specified in SP 4 940 MHz. Applicants are encouraged to contact their local district director for further licensing information.
