(Petitioner), the licensee of WLMB, channel 5, Toledo, Ohio, requesting the substitution of channel 35 for channel 5 at Toledo in the Table of Allotments. For the reasons set forth in the Report and Order referenced below, the Bureau amends Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) regulations to substitute channel 35 for channel 5 at Toledo. DATES: Effective March 2, 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 15181 on March 22, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 35. 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 35 facility is predicted to result in loss of service SUMMARY: 2.1.1 Normal Time Limit Records of change-of-address orders are kept by Post Offices for forwarding and for address correction purposes as follows: a. A record of permanent change-ofaddress orders is kept by Post Offices for 18 months, from the end of the month when the change takes effect. Generally, forwarding is available for the first 12 months, see 1.5, 1.6, and 1.7 for additional information. b. A record of change-of-address orders from general delivery to a permanent local address without time limit is kept 6 months. c. A record of change-of-address orders to other than a permanent local address is kept 30 days.

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.

OLMs are currently approved for 59 subcategories under FSS contracts, see https:// www.gsa.gov/olm. The GSAR currently requires the Senior Procurement Executive’s (SPE) authorization for further use of OLMs under FSS. GSA is removing this requirement from the GSAR to provide revised internal operating guidance in the nonregulatory GSA Acquisition Manual (GSAM). GSA is removing references from the OLM clause at 552.238–115 to the Federal Travel Regulation (FTR) because those references unnecessarily conflate travel as being an order level material and complicate the procedures for ordering activities and contracting officers. GSA is also updating the GSAR to accurately reflect terminology, acronyms, citations, and references in conformance with the new consolidated FSS schedule procedures (more information available at: https:// www.gsa.gov/schedule).

SUMMARY: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with RULES1 I. Background Order Level Materials (OLMs) are supplies and/or services acquired in direct support of an individual task or delivery order placed against a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract or FSS blanket purchase agreement (BPA), when the supplies and/or services are not known at the time of FSS contract VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:19 Mar 01, 2022 Jkt 256001 III. Discussion and Analysis After an internal review of existing policy, GSA is removing the requirement for GSA SPE authorization for use of OLMs on FSS, because it is unnecessary and administratively burdensome to the agency. Revised operating guidance which will provide for a lower level of approval, will now be provided in the non-regulatory GSAM, because these are internal procedures only, and as a result references to changes to OLM procedures are removed from the GSAR. GSAR clause 552.238–115, Special Ordering Procedures for the Acquisition of Order-Level Materials prescribes procedures for including OLMs when placing an order against an FSS contract or FSS BPA and references travel. The reference to travel in the clause, implying that it is an OLM, has caused confusion for contracting officers. To simplify acquisition procedures, this final rule removes travel from the OLM clause to allow ordering activities and contractors to include travel at the order level in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulations Part 31 and may also include requirements from the FTR. PO 00000 Frm 00009 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 11589 IV. Executive Order 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 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 has been reviewed and determined by OMB not to be 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. V. Congressional Review Act OIRA has determined that this rule is not a major rule under 5 U.S.C. 804(2). Subtitle E of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (codified at 5 U.S.C. 801–808), also known as the Congressional Review Act or CRA, generally provides that before a ‘‘major rule’’ may take effect, the agency promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the United States. The General Services Administration will submit a report containing this rule and other required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States. A major rule under the CRA cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register. VI. Notice for Public Comment The statute that applies to the publication of the GSAR is the Office of Federal Procurement Policy statute (codified at title 41 of the United States Code). Specifically, 41 U.S.C. 1707(a)(1) requires that a procurement policy, regulation, procedure or form (including an amendment or modification thereof) must be published for public comment if it relates to the expenditure of appropriated funds, and has either a significant effect beyond the internal operating procedures of the agency issuing the policy, regulation, procedure, or form, or has a significant cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors. This rule is not required to be published for public comment, because it does not have a significant effect or impose any new requirements on contractors or offers, the rule merely corrects citation E:\FR\FM\02MRR1.SGM 02MRR1

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On March 22, 2021, the Media Bureau, Video Division (Bureau) 
issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in response to a petition 
for rulemaking filed by Dominion Broadcasting, Inc. (Petitioner), the 
licensee of WLMB, channel 5, Toledo, Ohio, requesting the substitution 
of channel 35 for channel 5 at Toledo in the Table of Allotments. For 
the reasons set forth in the Report and Order referenced below, the 
Bureau amends Federal Communications Commission (Commission or FCC) 
regulations to substitute channel 35 for channel 5 at Toledo.

DATES: Effective March 2, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joyce Bernstein, Media Bureau, at 
(202) 418-1647 or [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 
15181 on March 22, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of 
the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 35. 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 35 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. 21-73; RM-11889; DA 22-179, adopted February 18, 2022, and released

    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).
