Yes. Consider an industrial plant near an airport that wipes out the ILS 
system or inhibits ATC or law enforcement comms. The section of Part 15 
that says no harmful interference will most certainly come into play as 
the affected users are licensed operations. The exemption lies in the 
radiated field strength (they're neither Class B or Class A devices that 
have field strength limits) but they still may not cause interference to 
licensed operations.
