I. Introduction 1. The Wireless Telecommunications and Media Bureaus (the Bureaus) announce an auction of certain FM broadcast construction permits and seek comment on the procedures to be used for this auction. This auction is PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 scheduled to commence on March 26, 2013, and is designated as Auction 94. II. Construction Permits in Auction 94 2. Auction 94 will offer 117 construction permits in the FM broadcast service. The construction permits to be auctioned are for 117 new FM allotments, including 26 construction permits that were offered but not sold or were defaulted upon in prior auctions. Attachment A of the Auction 94 Comment Public Notice lists the specific vacant FM allotments for which the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) will offer construction permits, along with the reference coordinates for each vacant FM allotment. These comprise FM channels added to the Table of FM Allotments, 47 CFR 73.202(b), pursuant to the Commission’s established rulemaking procedures, and designated for use in the indicated communities. An applicant may apply for any vacant FM allotment listed in Attachment A of the Auction 94 Comment Public Notice. If two or more short-form applications (FCC Form 175) specify the same FM allotment, they will be considered mutually exclusive, and the construction permit for that FM allotment will be awarded by competitive bidding procedures. Once mutual exclusivity exists for auction purposes, then, even if only one applicant is qualified to bid for a particular construction permit in Auction 94, that applicant is required to submit a bid in order to obtain the construction permit. Any applicant that submits a short-form application, but fails to timely submit an upfront payment, will retain its status as an applicant in Auction 94 and will remain subject to the rules prohibiting certain communications but, having purchased no bidding eligibility, will not be eligible to bid. III. Due Diligence 3. Each potential bidder is solely responsible for investigating and evaluating all technical and marketplace factors that may have a bearing on the value of the construction permits for broadcast facilities that it is seeking in this auction. Each bidder is responsible for assuring that, if it wins a construction permit, it will be able to build and operate facilities in accordance with the Commission’s rules. The FCC makes no representations or warranties about the use of this spectrum for particular services. Each applicant should be aware that an FCC auction represents an opportunity to become an FCC permittee in the broadcast service, E:\FR\FM\04OCN1.SGM 04OCN1
