Download as PDF 80470 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 250 / Friday, December 30, 2022 / Rules and Regulations khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with RULES error to a website address. Therefore, we are correcting the website address from ‘‘https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/ Medicare-Feefor-Service-Payment/ ESRDpayment/Educational_Resources’’ to ‘‘https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/ Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/ ESRDpayment/Educational_Resources.’’ On page 67194, in the first column, we inadvertently made a typographical error by including an incorrect symbol (2) to the phrase ‘‘100 cells/2L or >0.1 × 10/L.’’ In addition, the font size of this phrase inadvertently appears larger than the standard Federal Register text. Therefore, we are correcting these errors by replacing the phrase ‘‘100 cells/2L or >0.1 × 10/L’’ to ‘‘>100 cells/mL or >0.1 × 10/L’’. On page 67195, in the third column, we inadvertently made a typographical error by including an incorrect symbol (2) to the phrase ‘‘(>100 cells/2L, >50 percent PMN).46’’. In addition, the font size of this phrase is inadvertently larger than the standard Federal Register text. Therefore, we are correcting these errors by replacing the phrase ‘‘(>100 cells/2L, >50 percent PMN).46’’ to ‘‘(>100 cells/ mL, >50 percent PMN).46’’. III. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking and Delay in Effective Date Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b) of the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), the agency is required to publish a notice of the proposed rule in the Federal Register before the provisions of a rule take effect. Similarly, section 1871(b)(1) of the Social Security Act (the Act) requires the Secretary to provide for notice of the proposed rule in the Federal Register and provide a period of not less than 60 days for public comment. In addition, section 553(d) of the APA, and section 1871(e)(1)(B)(i) mandate a 30-day delay in effective date after issuance or publication of a rule. Sections 553(b)(B) and 553(d)(3) of the APA provide for exceptions from the notice and comment and delay in effective date of the APA requirements; in cases in which these exceptions apply, sections 1871(b)(2)(C) and 1871(e)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act provide exceptions from the notice and 60-day comment period and delay in effective date requirements of the Act as well. Section 553(b)(B) of the APA and section 1871(b)(2)(C) of the Act authorize an agency to dispense with normal rulemaking requirements for good cause if the agency makes a finding that the notice and comment process is impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the public interest. In addition, both section 553(d)(3) of the APA and section 1871(e)(1)(B)(ii) of the Act allow the agency to avoid the 30- VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:42 Dec 29, 2022 Jkt 259001 day delay in effective date where such delay is contrary to the public interest and an agency includes a statement of support. We believe that this correcting document does not constitute a rule that would be subject to the notice and comment or delayed effective date requirements. This document corrects typographic errors and does not make substantive changes to the policies or payment methodologies that were adopted in the CY 2023 ESRD PPS final rule. Thus, this correcting document is intended to ensure that the information is accurately reflected in the final rule. Even if this were a rulemaking to which the notice and comment and delayed effective date requirements applied, we find that there is good cause to waive such requirements. Undertaking further notice and comment procedures to incorporate the corrections in this document into the CY 2023 ESRD PPS final rule or delaying the effective date of the correction would be contrary to the public interest because it is in the public interest to ensure that the rule accurately reflects our policies as of the date they take effect. Further, such procedures would be unnecessary because we are not making any substantive revisions to the final rule, but rather, we are simply correcting the Federal Register document to reflect the policies that we previously proposed, received public comment on, and subsequently finalized in the CY 2023 ESRD PPS final rule. For these reasons, we believe there is good cause to waive the requirements for notice and comment and delay in effective date. IV.

According to the Petitioner, it has received many complaints from viewers unable to receive a reliable signal on VHF channel 7, and the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have certain characteristics that pose challenges for their use in providing digital television service. The Engineering Statement provided with the Petition confirmed that the proposed channel 22 contour would continue to reach virtually all of the population within the Station’s current service area and fully cover the city of Great Falls. An analysis using the Commission’s TVStudy software tool indicates that KRTV’s move from channel 7 to channel 22 is predicted to create a small area where 554 persons are predicted to lose service. The loss area, however, is partially overlapped by the noise limited contour of other Scripps owned CBS affiliated stations. Once those other sources of CBS programming are factored into the loss analysis, the new loss area that would be created by the proposed channel substitution would contain only 255 persons, which is a level of service loss the Commission considers to be de minimis. Concurrence from the Canadian government was required and has been obtained.

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: On March 10, 2022, the Media Bureau, Video Division (Bureau) 
issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) in response to a petition 
for rulemaking filed by Scripps Broadcasting Holdings LLC (Petitioner), 
the licensee of KRTV(TV) (Station), channel 7, Great Falls, Montana, 
requesting the substitution of channel 22 for channel 7 at Great Falls 
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 22 for channel 7 at Great Falls.

DATES: Effective December 30, 2022.

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was published at 87 FR 
16157 on March 22, 2022. The Petitioner filed comments in support of 
the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 22. No 
other comments were filed.

[[Page 80471]]

    The Report and Order substitutes channel 22 for channel 7 at Great 
Falls, Montana. According to the Petitioner, it has received many 
complaints from viewers unable to receive a reliable signal on VHF 
channel 7, and the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have 
certain characteristics that pose challenges for their use in providing 
digital television service. The Engineering Statement provided with the 
Petition confirmed that the proposed channel 22 contour would continue 
to reach virtually all of the population within the Station's current 
service area and fully cover the city of Great Falls. An analysis using 
the Commission's TVStudy software tool indicates that KRTV's move from 
channel 7 to channel 22 is predicted to create a small area where 554 
persons are predicted to lose service. The loss area, however, is 
partially overlapped by the noise limited contour of other Scripps 
owned CBS affiliated stations. Once those other sources of CBS 
programming are factored into the loss analysis, the new loss area that 
would be created by the proposed channel substitution would contain 
only 255 persons, which is a level of service loss the Commission 
considers to be de minimis. Concurrence from the Canadian government 
was required and has been obtained.
    This is a synopsis of the Commission's Report and Order, MB Docket 
No. 22-117; RM-11923; DA 22-1231, adopted November 29, 2022, and 
released November 29, 2022. The full text of this document is available 
for download at https://www.fcc.gov/edocs. To request materials in 
accessible formats for people with disabilities (braille, large print, 
electronic files, audio format), send an email to [email protected] or 
call the Consumer & Governmental Affairs Bureau at 202-418-0530 
(voice), 202-418-0432 (tty).
    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 this 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).
