The Audio Division, on its
own motion, proposes the deletion of
seven vacant allotments in various
communities in Arizona, Oklahoma,
Oregon, Texas, Vermont and Wyoming.
We tentatively conclude that it is in the
public interest to delete seven vacant
allotments that have been offered in two
FM auctions. No bids were entered for
these allotments in the recently
completed FM Auction 109. These
permits are now considered unsold, and
the allotments remain vacant. Deletion
of these allotments may create other
opportunities in nearby communities for
new FM allotments or upgrades of
existing stations. Therefore, we believe
that the proposed deletion of these
vacant allotments may promote a more
effective and efficient use of the FM
broadcast spectrum.
DATES: Comments must be filed on or
before February 14, 2022 and reply
comments on or before March 1, 2022.
