These regulations are found in 47CFR§6, not 47CFR§8, which is the subject of docket 14-28.

Not having read the actual R&O in docket 14-28, so basing the following statements on the NPRM instead. Since the NPRM had 47CFR§8 limited to 47CFR§8.11, and the actual amendment going to 47CFR§8.17, the adopted rules are different than originally proposed. You can read the proposed regulations yourself in FCC 14-61 ( http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7521129942 ) pages 66-67. Yes, two pages. The actual regulations are a bit, but not much, longer.

47CFR§6 was already there before docket 14-28 came about.
