complaints from viewers unable to
receive an over-the-air signal, despite
being able to receive signals from other
stations. In addition, the Petitioner
submitted an analysis, using the
Commission’s TVStudy software
analysis program, demonstrating that
the proposed channel change from
channel 7 to 15 would result in a
minimal loss of service to only 299
people currently predicted to receive
KRCR’s signal. In addition, the
Petitioner states that KRCR’s proposed
channel 15 facility is predicted to serve
a total of 517,605 people, a net gain of
30,175 potential viewers over the
existing KRCR channel 7 licensed
facility.

Rulemaking, MB Docket No. 21–177;

Commission.
ACTION: Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
The Commission has before it
a petition for rulemaking filed by KTVL
Licensee, LLC (Petitioner), the licensee
of KTVL (CBS), channel 10, Medford,
Oregon. The Petitioner requests the
substitution of channel 16 for channel
10 at Medford, Oregon in the DTV Table
of Allotments.
DATES: Comments must be filed on or
before June 11, 2021 and reply
comments on or before June 28, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Andrew Manley, Media Bureau, at (202)

Bureau, at Andrew Manley@fcc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In support
of its channel substitution request, the
Petitioner states that the reception of
VHF signals require larger antennas
relative to UHF channels, and that
studies suggest a large variability in
indoor antennas, with most receiving
fairly well at UHF and the substantial
majority not so well to very poor for
high-VHF channels. Petitioner further
states that KTVL has received numerous
complaints from viewers unable to
receive that Station’s over-the-air signal,
despite being able to receive signals
from other stations. In its Amended
Engineering Exhibit, the Petitioner
demonstrated that while the proposed
channel 16 noise limited contour does
not completely encompass the channel
10 noise limited contour, there are three
other CBS affiliated stations that serve
all but 9,355 persons in the noise
limited contour loss area. The Petitioner
also submitted an analysis, using the
Commission’s TVStudy software
analysis program, demonstrating that
after taking into account service
provided by other CBS stations, all of
the population located within KTVL’s
channel 10 noise limited contour will
continue to receive CBS service,
resulting in no loss of network service.

Rulemaking, MB Docket No. 21–155;

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking.
AGENCY:
This document proposes to
repeal ‘‘The Safer Affordable FuelEfficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule Part One:
One National Program,’’ published Sept.
27, 2019 (SAFE I Rule), in which
NHTSA codified regulatory text and
made additional pronouncements
regarding the preemption of state and
local laws related to fuel economy
standards. Specifically, this document
proposes to fully repeal the regulatory
text and appendices promulgated in the
SAFE I Rule. In addition, this document
proposes to repeal and withdraw the
interpretative statements made by the
Agency in the SAFE I Rule preamble,
including those regarding the
preemption of particular state
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
standards or Zero Emissions Vehicle
(ZEV) mandates. As such, this
document proposes to establish a clean
slate with respect to NHTSA’s
regulations and interpretations
concerning preemption under the
Energy Policy and Conservation Act
(EPCA).
