SUMMARY:

Jkt 229001
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).
Provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act of 1980 do not apply to
this proceeding.
To accommodate the new allotment at
Munds Park, the Bureau also substitutes
Channel 281C for vacant Channel 247C
at First Mesa, Arizona, at reference
coordinates 35–41–09 NL and 110–21–
43 WL. The reference coordinates for
Channel 246C2 at Munds Park are 34–
58–06 NL and 111–30–29 WL.
In comparing the new allotment at
Munds Park and the proposed increase
in existing service at Wickenburg,
Arizona, the Bureau recognized that the
Wickenburg proposal would provide a
second full-time reception service to
264 persons. However, the Bureau
found that this was de minimis and did
not trigger Priority 2 of the FM
Allotment Priorities. The Munds Park
proposal was preferred over the
Wickenburg proposal under Priority 4,
other public interest matters. Although
the increase in existing service at
Wickenburg would provide third and
fourth reception services to some
underserved populations, the Bureau
determined on balance that they do not
outweigh the need for a second local or
first competitive service at Munds Park.

Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Commission has before it
a petition for rulemaking filed by
Hampton Roads Educational
Telecommunications Association’s
(HRETA). HRETA requests the
reallotment of its channel *16 to
Norfolk, Virginia-Elizabeth City, North
Carolina, and to modify its television
station, WHRO–TV’s license to specify
Norfolk, Virginia-Elizabeth City, North
Carolina as its community of license.
Norfolk, Virginia-Elizabeth City, North
Carolina fails to qualify as a community
for allotment purposes, and therefore,
HRETA’s request to modify its
community of license is been denied
and its petition for rulemaking is
dismissed.

DATES:
This rule is effective March 19,
2013.
