... Nonetheless, while no formal allocations are established above 275 GHz, the ITU Radio Regulation 5.565 urges administrations to take all practicable steps to protect passive services from harmful interference in the frequency range of 275-1000 GHz and states that 1000-3000 GHz may be used by both passive and active services.1 Frequency allocations and footnotes relevant to the science services in Radio Astronomy, Earth Explora­ ion, Space Research and Operation, and Meteorological Aids and Satellite are listed in Table 5.1. t The allocations presented in this chapter are based upon the Table of Frequency Allocations published by the U.S.

... indicate a primary allocation, where entities properly authorized to operate in that service are entitled to protection from harmful interference from any other services in that frequency range. The services with the first letter capitalized (such as "Radio astronomy")
From page 105...
... Any radio astronomy or Earth remote sensing station observing in a band in which RAS or EESS is allocated is urged to register its operations so that the regulator is aware of its presence and can provide interference protection. For RAS sites, registration is typically done through the National Science F ­ oundation's Electromagnetic Spectrum Management office; for EESS sites, registration is typically done through the NASA Space Communications and Navigation Directorate's Spectrum Management office or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Radio Frequency Management Division.
