36. Regional assignment planning
(1)The frequencies for instrument landing system facilities for regional assignment planning shall be selected in the following order—(a)localizer channels ending in odd tenths of a megahertz and their associated glide path channels; and(b)localizer channels ending in odd tenths plus a twentieth of a megahertz and their associated glide path channels.(2)Instrument landing system channels identified by localizer frequencies ending in an odd tenth plus one twentieth of a megahertz in the band 108 – 111.975 Megahertz shall be permitted to be utilized on the basis of regional agreement.(3)For regional assignment planning, the frequencies for very high frequency Omni-directional Range facilities shall be selected in the following order—(a)frequencies ending in odd tenths of a megahertz in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz;(b)frequencies ending in even tenths of a megahertz in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz;(c)frequencies ending in even tenths of a megahertz in the band 108 - 111.975 Megahertz;(d)frequencies ending in 50 kilohertz in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz, except as provided in subregulation (4);(e)frequencies ending in even tenths plus a twentieth of a megahertz in the band 108 – 111.975 Megahertz except as provided in subregulation (4).(4)Frequencies for very high frequency Omni-directional Range facilities ending in even tenths plus a twentieth of a megahertz in the band 108 – 111.975 Megahertz and all frequencies ending in 50 kilohertz in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz shall be permitted to be utilized on the basis of a regional agreement when they have become applicable in accordance with the following—(a)in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz for restricted use;(b)for general use in the band 111.975 – 117.975 Megahertz at a date fixed by the Council but at least one year after the approval of the regional agreement concerned; and(c)for general use in the band 108 – 111.975 Megahertz at a date fixed by the Council but giving a period of two years or more after the approval of the regional agreement concerned.(5)For purpose of subregulation (4), “restricted use” means the limited use of the frequencies by only suitably equipped aircraft and in such a manner that—(a)the performance of ILS or VOR equipment not capable of operating on these frequencies will be protected from harmful interference;(b)a general requirement for the carriage of ILS or VOR airborne equipment capable of operation on these frequencies will not be imposed; and(c)operational service provided to international operators using 100 kHz airborne equipment is not derogated.
