(7) For the areas mentioned in clauses (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6), the Schedule mentioned in those clauses specifies the radiocommunications transmitters planned for the provision of broadcasting services in that area by reference to:

(a) the Attachment that determines the technical specifications for each transmitter; and

(b) the frequency on which each transmitter is planned to operate and the approximate geographic area each transmitter is planned to serve; and

(c) the technical specification number for each transmitter and, for a transmitter planned for the provision of a service under a broadcasting services bands licence, the licence number of that licence.

(8) Each Attachment, other than an attachment that describes an area within which broadcasting services are to be available, determines the following technical specifications for a radiocommunications transmitter specified in a Schedule:

(a) subject to clause (9), a description, and the geographic coordinates, of the location (nominal location) from where the radiocommunications transmitter must be operated;

(b) the frequency on which the transmitter must be operated;

(c) the frequency band containing that frequency, and the mode of transmission the transmitter must use;

(d) the required polarisation of the transmission made by the transmitter;

(e) the maximum antenna height for the transmitter;

(f) the maximum effective radiated power (ERP) or cymomotive force (CMF), in each specified direction, of transmissions made by the transmitter;

(g) any special conditions that apply to the operation of the transmitter;

(h) any circumstances that must exist for the transmitter to be able to be operated, or that prohibit the transmitter from being operated.

(9) A radiocommunications transmitter may be operated from a site other than a nominal location (alternative site) if the operation from the alternative site complies with any requirements set out for the transmitter and for the operation of the transmitter in guidelines made under section 33 of the Act in relation to operation from an alternative site.

Note: Guidelines under section 33 of the Broadcasting Services Act 1992 are available, free of charge, from the Federal Register of Legislation at www.legislation.gov.au. At the time this clause commenced, the Broadcasting Services (Technical Planning) Guidelines 2017 were the guidelines in force under section 33.

(10) In this plan, radiocommunications transmitter has the meaning given by the Radiocommunications Act 1992.

(11) In this plan, unless the contrary intention appears:

(a) a reference to a schedule or an attachment is a reference to a schedule or an attachment to this plan;

(b) a reference to a legislative instrument is a reference to that instrument as in force from time to time;

(c) a reference to any other kind of instrument or writing is a reference to that other instrument or writing as in force or in existence at the time the reference was included in this plan.

Note 1: For references to Commonwealth Acts, see section 10 of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901; and see also subsection 13(1) of the Legislation Act 2003 for the application of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 to legislative instruments.
