I’m confused. FB2, but not repeaters? If they are for repeaters, It doesn’t appear that the inputs are included in these licenses.

483.11875 & 483.14375 (repeater inputs 3 Mhz higher) were both mentioned as temporary NFM frequencies for FDNY EMS recently.
The STA lists emissions as 11K0F3E, 8K10F1D, 8K10F1E, 8K70D1W.
Here is the letter from the City of NY requesting the STA:
