d. Unified and specified commanders, subject to host nation
agreements, have overall management and control responsibility for
all United States military use of the radio frequency spectrum within
their zones of operation.
e. Generally,
unified
and
specified
commanders
have
a
Communications-Electronics Directorate (J-6) to assist in carrying
out spectrum management responsibilities.
In a large unified
command, there may also be area frequency coordinators, who
correspond to subordinate unified commands, for local management and
coordination. In addition to the J-6 staff of the Unified Command, a
Joint Frequency Coordination Committee, consisting of spectrum
management representatives for each military service and chaired by
the Unified Command Frequency Officer, may be established to resolve
spectrum management problems of a joint nature.
f. In the Pacific Command, subordinate unified commands such as
United States Forces (Korea) are responsible for spectrum management
in their areas of responsibility; they are, however subject to
overall policy direction of Commander in Chief, Pacific.
In areas
where subordinate unified command has not been established, a
Commander in Chief, Pacific representative may be appointed.
For
example, in the Philippine Islands area, there is a Commander in
Chief, Pacific representative from the Philippines who is the area
frequency coordinator for that area.
g. The communications-electronics officer of an Army component
command is responsible for filling the spectrum requirements of all
Army Forces in the theater of operations under the guidelines
established by the unified or specified command policy.
Individual
department requirements in other matters that do not fall into the
area of responsibility of unified or specified commanders are dealt
with directly by the staffs of individual departments.
It is
reemphasized that, in pursuit of the concept of radio frequency
spectrum control as an element of command and control, the final
authority for control of military radio frequency spectrum management
in unified and specified commands is vested in the commanders.
