1. The Incentive Auction Task Force
(Task Force) and the Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau)
announce the 84 megahertz spectrum
clearing target that has been set by the
Auction System’s optimization
procedure for Stage 4 of the incentive
auction, as well as the band plan
associated with the 84 megahertz
spectrum clearing target, which
includes seven Category 1 generic
license blocks with zero impairments
for each of the 416 Partial Economic
Areas (PEAs). The Task Force and
Bureau also provide details and specific
dates regarding bidding and the
continuing availability of educational
materials, and remind reverse and
forward auction applicants of their
continuing obligations.
I. Stage 4 Clearing Target and Band
Plan
2. The Auction System’s clearing
target determination procedure has set a
spectrum clearing target of 84 megahertz
for Stage 4 of the incentive auction.
Under the band plan associated with
this spectrum clearing target, 70
megahertz, or seven paired blocks, of
licensed spectrum will be offered in the
forward auction on a nationwide basis.
3. The generic license blocks offered
in Stage 4 of the forward auction under
this band plan will consist of a total of
2,912 Category 1 blocks (zero percent
impaired). There will be no Category 2
blocks offered under this band plan. In
other words, seven 100% unimpaired
blocks in all 416 PEAs for a total of
2,912 Category 1 blocks will be offered
in Stage 4.
4. The clearing target for Stage 4 was
determined by applying the procedure
the Commission adopted in the Auction
1000 Bidding Procedures Public Notice,
80 FR 61917, October 14, 2015, using
the same objectives as in the initial
clearing target optimization and taking
into account the additional channels in
the TV band and any participating
stations that have dropped out of the
auction in the previous stage. Based on
the new provisional television channel
assignment plan, the nationwide
impaired weighted-pops were
calculated on a 2x2 cell level and the
one-block-equivalent nationwide
standard for impairments was applied.

pesticide products containing the active ingredient Pseudomonas
chlororaphis subsp. aurantiaca strain AFS009 (File Symbols 91197-R,

give the public an opportunity to comment on this new information, EPA
is republishing its receipt of these applications with an updated and
accurate description. Contact: BPPD.
