informational programming under the
Children’s Television Act.

Needs and Uses: On December 11,
2007, the FCC released a Third Report
and Order and Second Further Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (‘‘Third Report
and Order’’) MM Docket No. 99–25, FCC
07–204. In the Third Report and Order,
the FCC extended the local standards for
rural markets. Under the old Rules, an
LPFM applicant was deemed local if it
was physically headquartered or had a
campus within ten miles of the
proposed LPFM transmitter site, or if 75
percent of its board members resided
within ten miles of the proposed LPFM
transmitter site. The Third Report and
Order modified the ten-mile
requirement to twenty miles for all
LPFM applicants for proposed facilities
in other than the top fifty urban
markets, for both the distance from

transmitter and residence of board
member standards. We have revised the
Form 318 to reflect this extension of
local standards for rural markets. While
the overall number of respondents
increases because the Rule change
expands the universe of eligible
applicants, there are no new
information collection requirements
with respect to completion of the Form
318.
In the Third Report and Order, the
Commission also delegated to the Media
Bureau the authority to consider Section
73.807 waiver requests from certain
LPFM stations. When implementation of
a full-service station community of
license modification would result in an
increase in interference caused to the
LPFM station or its displacement, the
LPFM station may seek a secondadjacent channel short spacing waiver
in connection with an application
proposing operations on a new channel.
Such waiver requests would be filed on
a Form 318.
The Third Report and Order also
allows LPFM stations to file waiver
requests of Section 73.809 of the Rules
if: (1) It is at risk of displacement by an
encroaching full-service station
modification application and no
alternative channel is available, and (2)
it can demonstrate that it has regularly
provided at least eight hours per day of
locally originated programming. LPFM
stations that wish to make a showing
under this waiver standard must file an
informal objection to the ‘‘encroaching’’
community of license modification
application.
FCC Form 318 is required: (1) To
apply for a construction permit for a
new Low Power FM (LPFM) station; (2)
to make changes in the existing facilities
of such a station; or (3) to amend a
pending FCC Form 318 application.
