SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
47 CFR Part 73
[MB Docket No. 13–40, RM–11691; DA 13–
160]
Television Broadcasting Services;
Seaford, Delaware and Dover,
Delaware
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Commission has before it
a petition for rulemaking filed by
Western Pacific Broadcast, LLC
(‘‘Western Pacific’’), the permittee of
unbuilt station WMDE(TV), Channel 5,
Seaford, Delaware, requesting an
amendment of the DTV Table of
Allotments to delete Channel 5 at
Seaford and substitute Channel 5 at
Dover, Delaware. Western Pacific
further requests modification of
WMDE(TV)’s construction permit to
specify Dover, Delaware as the station’s
community license and seeks a waiver
of the Commission’s freeze on the filing
of petitions for rulemaking by
televisions stations seeking to change
their community of license. Western
Pacific asserts that its proposal to reallot
Channel 5 to Dover is based on the
technical specifications currently
authorized for WMDE(TV), and
therefore the new allotment will be
mutually exclusive with the station’s
existing allotment. Western Pacific
further states that its proposal meets the
Commission’s allotment priorities by
providing Dover with its first local
television service, and that Seaford will
remain well-served after the reallotment
because full-power noncommercial
station WDPB(TV), Channel *44, will
remain licensed to that community.
Therefore, Western Pacific submits that
this rulemaking will serve the public
interest.

Migratory Bird Hunting; Revision of
Language for Approval of Nontoxic
Shot for Use in Waterfowl Hunting
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, propose to revise our
regulations regarding the approval of
nontoxic shot types to make the
regulations easier to understand. The
language governing determination of
Expected Environmental Concentrations
(EECs) in terrestrial and aquatic
ecosystems is altered to make clear the
shot size and number of shot to be used
in calculating the EECs. We propose to
specify the pH levels to be used in
calculating the EEC in water. We also
propose to move the requirement for in
vitro testing to Tier 1, which will allow
us to better assess applications and
minimize the need for Tier 2
applications. We propose to add
language for withdrawal of alloys that
have been demonstrated to have
detrimental environmental or biological
effects, or for which no suitable fieldtesting device is available. We expect
these changes to reduce the time
