Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 82 / Friday, April 27, 2018 / Rules and Regulations
provides instructions for Auction 83
applicants to review, verify and update
their previously filed short-form
applications during the upcoming
Remedial Window, as required. In
addition, the Public Notice addresses
three filings submitted by parties in
response to the Auction 83 Comment
Public Notice.
124. Auction 83 is a closed auction,
therefore the specific competitive
bidding procedures and minimum
opening bid amounts described in the
Auction 83 Comment Public Notice will
affect only the 57 individuals or entities
listed in Attachment A to the Auction
83 Procedures Public Notice who are
eligible to complete the remaining steps
to become qualified to bid in this
auction. The latest available U.S. Census
Bureau data show that there were 2,849
radio station firms that operated in
2012. Of that number 2,806 firms
operated with annual receipts below the
SBA’s small business size standard of
firms having $38.5 million or less in
annual receipts. The 57 eligible
individuals or entities for Auction 83
include firms of all sizes and constitute
approximately two percent of all firms
that operated and of firms meeting the
SBA small business size standard.
Consequently, because the proposed
procedures and minimum opening bid
amounts would affect a maximum of 57
radio station firms, or approximately
two percent of the total, and not all 57
are small entities, the Bureaus find that
a substantial number of small entities
would not be affected by these
competitive bidding procedures or
minimum opening bid amounts
contained in the Auction 83 Procedures
Public Notice. Therefore, the Bureaus
certify that these competitive bidding
procedures and minimum opening bid
amounts announced in the Auction 83
Procedures Public Notice will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
125. The Bureaus will send a copy of
the Auctions 83 Procedures Public
Notice, including this Final Regulatory
Flexibility Certification, in a Report to
Congress pursuant to the Congressional
Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A). In
addition, the Auctions 83 Procedures
Public Notice and this Final Regulatory
Flexibility Certification will be sent to
the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the
SBA pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605(b).
