On July 16, 2021, the Media
Bureau, Video Division (Bureau) issued
a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(NPRM) in response to a petition for
rulemaking filed by KPTV Broadcasting
Corporation (Petitioner), the licensee of
KPTV, channel 12, Portland, Oregon,
requesting the substitution of channel
21 for channel 12 at Portland in the
Table of Allotments. For the reasons set
forth in the Report and Order referenced
below, the Bureau amends FCC
regulations to substitute channel 21 for
channel 12 at Portland.
DATES: Effective January 25, 2022.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Joyce Bernstein, Media Bureau, at (202)
418–1647 or Joyce.Bernstein@fcc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
proposed rule was published at 86 FR
43470 on August 9, 2021. The Petitioner
filed comments in support of the
petition reaffirming its commitment to
apply for channel 21. Gray Television,
Inc., which acquired the station, also
filed comments in support of the
petition and stating its commitment to
apply for channel 21. In support of its
channel substitution request, the
Petitioner states that the Commission
has recognized that VHF channels have
certain characteristics that pose
challenges for their use in providing
digital television service. In addition,
the Petitioner has received numerous
complaints of poor or no reception from
viewers. Finally, the Petitioner
demonstrated that the channel 21 noise
limited contour would fully encompass
the existing channel 12 contour, and an
analysis using the Commission’s
TVStudy software indicates that
Petitioner’s proposal would result in an
increase of 39,677 persons predicted to
receive KPTV service and 499 persons
that would gain a second over the air
signal.

Commission’s Report and Order, MB

Hake to the Northeast Multispecies
Fishery Management Plan. This action
establishes a 10-year rebuilding plan,
including a rebuilding schedule and
change in possession limits for the
overfished southern red hake stock. This
action is necessary to meet the statutory
requirements for an overfished stock
and rebuilding plan consistent with the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery

This action is intended to rebuild the
southern red hake stock and help
achieve optimum yield in the
commercial fishery.

Background
In January 2018, the southern red
hake stock was declared overfished. To
meet the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(Magnuson-Stevens Act) requirements
of an overfished stock, a rebuilding plan
and associated management measures
are necessary to prevent overfishing,
ensure adequate rebuilding, and help
achieve optimum yield in the fishery.
The New England Fishery Management
Council took final action on Framework
Adjustment 62 (Framework 62) to the
Northeast Multispecies Fishery
Management Plan at its June 2020
meeting and submitted the action to us
in mid-August 2020. NMFS published a
proposed rule on July 12, 2021 (86 FR
36519), with a comment period ending
on July 27, 2021.
NMFS has approved all of the
measures in Framework 62
recommended by the Council, as
described below. This final rule
establishes a 10-year rebuilding plan,
including a rebuilding schedule and
change in possession limits for the
overfished southern red hake stock. The
Magnuson-Stevens Act allows NMFS to
approve, partially approve, or
disapprove measures proposed by the
Council based on whether the measures
are consistent with the FMP, the
Magnuson-Stevens Act and its National
Standards, and other applicable law.
Details concerning the development of
these measures were contained in the
preamble of the proposed rule and are
not repeated here.
Southern Red Hake Rebuilding
Schedule
This action establishes a 10-year
rebuilding schedule for southern red
hake. Under this rebuilding program,
catch limits will be established by
reducing the acceptable biological catch
(ABC) to 75 percent of the fishing
mortality rate at maximum sustainable
yield (FMSY) for the duration of the
rebuilding period, or until the stock
reaches its biomass target, whichever
happens first. In past years, the ABC has
been set at 90 percent or higher of the
FMSY, consistent with the Council’s
Scientific and Statistical Committee
recommendations.
Changes to Southern Red Hake
Possession Limits
This action will also decrease the trip
possession limit from 5,000 lb (2,268 kg)
to a dual 1,000-lb/600-lb (453.6-kg/
272.2-kg) possession limit based on the
selectivity of the gear type or mesh size
being used (Table 1). The 600-lb (272.2kg) possession limit will apply to
