Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 23 / Thursday, February 3, 2022 / Rules and Regulations property management more understandable and easier to read. This final rule addresses the following: 1. An amendment to FMR section 102–35.10, listing FMR parts related to personal property disposal in sequence so that the listing of FMR parts follows the general life-cycle processes related to asset management and disposal; and 2. Revisions to the regulations governing the donation program to incorporate legislation regarding museums (Pub. L. 114–287, Section 23) to ensure consistency with Federal law. The donation program allows for the transfer of Federal surplus personal property to state agencies for surplus property for distribution to eligible recipients within their state. II. Discussion of the Final Rule A. Summary of Significant Changes GSA is modifying provisions in the FMR to improve readability and ease of use. B. Analysis of Public Comments The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on June 9, 2020 (85 FR 35236). Four comments were received, two of which were substantive/germane to the rule. An analysis of these public comments follows: Comment: One respondent indicated that the proposed rule ‘‘is bad for the environment and public safety’’ and should not be implemented. Response: These changes do not involve environmental concerns or public safety. Comment: One respondent objected to ‘‘eliminating all definition references in this proposed rule’’ and that it is important to have definitions repeated in each area that are critical for understanding the requirements. Response: Concur. The consolidation of duplicative occurrences of definitions has been removed from this final rule. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES C. Expected Cost Impact to the Public There is no expected cost to the public from this rule, as this rule is largely administrative. The changes will result in a better user experience with the FMR, as the information will be organized in a more logical order. III. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 Executive Orders (E.O.s) 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:34 Feb 02, 2022 Jkt 256001 equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This rule is not a significant regulatory action, and therefore, was not subject to review under Section 6(b) of E.O. 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, dated September 30, 1993. IV. Congressional Review Act This rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804(2). Additionally, this rule is excepted from Congressional Review Act reporting requirements prescribed under 5 U.S.C. 801 since it relates to agency management or personnel. V. Regulatory Flexibility Act This final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq. This final rule is also exempt from the Administrative Procedures Act per 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(2) because it applies to agency management or personnel. VI. Paperwork Reduction Act The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the changes to the FMR do not impose recordkeeping or information collection requirements, or the collection of information from offerors, contractors, or members of the public that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.

ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: On September 22, 2021, the Media Bureau, Video Division (Bureau) issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by Gray Television Licensee, LLC (Petitioner), the licensee of WYMT, channel 12, Hazard, Kentucky, requesting the substitution of channel 20 for channel 12 at Hazard in the Table of Allotments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 54416 on October 1, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 20. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner states that the Commission has recognized the deleterious effects manmade noise has on the reception of digital VHF signals, and that the propagation characteristics of these channels allow undesired signals and noise to be receivable at relatively farther distances compared to UHF channels, and also allow nearby electrical devices to cause interference. While the proposed channel 20 facility is predicted to result in loss of service to 15,460 persons, all but approximately 100 of those persons would continue to receive service from at least five other television stations, and no persons would receive service from fewer than four other television stations. The Commission is generally most concerned where there is a loss of an area’s only network or non-commercial educational (NCE) TV service, or where the loss area results in an area becoming less than well-served, i.e., served by fewer than five full-power over-the-air signals. As a result, the loss area will continue to remain well-served and the number of persons that will receive less than five signals (approximately 100 persons) is considered to be de minimis. This is a synopsis of the Commission’s Report and Order, MB Docket No. 21–125; RM–11892; DA 22– 91, adopted January 27, 2022, and released January 27, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Currently, the GSAR uses the terms ‘‘handicapped’’ and ‘‘handicapped individuals’’ to identify individuals with impairments who can benefit from certain electronic office equipment. However, the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Rehabilitation Act use the term ‘‘individuals with disabilities’’ to reference these individuals. Thus, this rule updates language in the GSAR to conform with the statutory language and provide more inclusive acquisition guidance for underserved communities. II. Authority for This Rulemaking Title 40 of the United States Code (U.S.C.) Section 121 authorizes GSA to issue regulations, including the GSAR, to control the relationship between GSA and contractors.

(Petitioner), the licensee of WYMT, channel 12, Hazard, Kentucky, 
requesting the substitution of channel 20 for channel 12 at Hazard in

(202) 418-1647 or Joyce [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 
54416 on October 1, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of 
the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 20. In 
support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner states that 
the Commission has recognized the deleterious effects manmade noise has 
on the reception of digital VHF signals, and that the propagation 
characteristics of these channels allow undesired signals and noise to 
be receivable at relatively farther distances compared to UHF channels, 
and also allow nearby electrical devices to cause interference. While 
the proposed channel 20 facility is predicted to result in loss of 
service to 15,460 persons, all but approximately 100 of those persons 
would continue to receive service from at least five other television 
stations, and no persons would receive service from fewer than four 
other television stations. The Commission is generally most concerned 
where there is a loss of an area's only network or non-commercial 
educational (NCE) TV service, or where the loss area results in an area 
becoming less than well-served, i.e., served by fewer than five full-
power over-the-air signals. As a result, the loss area will continue to 
remain well-served and the number of persons that will receive less 
than five signals (approximately 100 persons) is considered to be de 
minimis.
    This is a synopsis of the Commission's Report and Order, MB Docket

    This document does not contain information collection requirements 
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. In 
addition, therefore, it does not contain any proposed information 
collection burden ``for small business concerns with fewer than 25 
employees,'' pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 
2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). Provisions of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, do not apply to 
this proceeding.
    The Commission will send a copy of the Report and Order in a report 
to be sent to Congress and the Government Accountability Office 
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
