This Order amends the FM Table of Allotments (“FM Table”)1, to remove certain vacant FM allotments that were auctioned in FM Auction 68 and FM Auction 70. The attached Appendix shows the FM Table, as amended, for those communities. 2. The FM allotments listed in the Appendix are currently authorized stations.2 FM assignments for authorized stations and reserved facilities will be reflected solely in Media Bureau’s Consolidated Database System (CDBS).3 3. 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.

The Commission will issue an Order to re-auction those FM allotments because they are considered vacant FM allotments since the authorizations were cancelled. 3 See Revision of Procedures Governing Amendments To FM Table of Allotments and Changes of Community of License in the Radio Broadcast Services, Report and Order, 21 FCC Rcd 14212, 14221 ¶ 15 (2006)(stating that it is unnecessary for “occupied” allotments (that is, those that are licensed, permitted, or reserved) to be listed in the Table of Allotments….”we shall amend the Table of Allotments to reflect only vacant allotments that do not correspond to an authorized station or reserved assignment.”) 4 See 5 U.S.C. § 553(b)(B) (stating that agency may forego notice and comment procedures if it provides a brief statement of reasons showing that such procedures are unnecessary).
