The attached Appendix shows the FM Table, as amended, for those communities. 2.

These FM allotment channels have previously undergone notice and comment rule making, were auctioned through our FM competitive bidding process, and are no longer considered vacant FM allotments. This action constitutes an editorial change in the FM Table of Allotments. Therefore, a public notice and comment proceedings are unnecessary.4 4. The Commission will not send a copy of this Report and Order pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A), because the adopted rules are rules of particular applicability. 5.
