SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission’s Notice of Proposed Rule Making, MB Docket Nos. 05–76, 05–77, and 05–78, adopted March 2, 2005, and released March 4, 2005.

This document does not contain proposed information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104–13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain any proposed information collection burden ‘‘for small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees,’’ pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). The Commission further requests comment on a petition filed by Charles Crawford. Petitioner proposes the VerDate jul<14>2003 15:05 Mar 15, 2005 Jkt 205001 allotment of Channel 290A at Covington, Oklahoma, as a first local service. Channel 290A can be allotted at Covington in compliance with the Commission’s minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 5.7km (3.5 miles) east of Covington. The proposed coordinates for Channel 290A at Covington are 36– 18–26 North Latitude and 97–31–31 West Longitude. The Commission further requests comment on a petition filed by Dana J. Puopolo. Petitioner proposes the allotment of Channel 223A at Poultney, Vermont, as a first local service. Channel 223A can be allotted at Poultney in compliance with the Commission’s minimum distance separation requirements without site restriction at center city coordinates. The proposed coordinates for Channel 223A at Poultney are 43–31–06 North Latitude and 73–14–06 West Longitude. Concurrence in a specially negotiated allotment by the Government of Canada is required because the proposed allotment is located within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.Canadian border and would be shortspaced to Station CFQR–FM, Channel 223C1, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not apply to this proceeding. Members of the public should note that from the time a Notice of Proposed Rule Making is issued until the matter is no longer subject to Commission consideration or court review, all ex parte contacts are prohibited in Commission proceedings, such as this one, which involve channel allotments.
