ACTION: Proposed rule. AGENCY: The Video Division, Media Bureau (Bureau), has before it a petition for rulemaking filed by Gray Television Licensee, LLC (Gray or Petitioner), the licensee of KVVU–TV, channel 9, Henderson, Nevada (Station or KVVU– TV). Petitioner requests that the Bureau substitute channel 9 for channel 24 at Henderson, Nevada in the Table of TV Allotments (table). DATES: Comments must be filed on or before April 17, 2025 and reply comments on or before May 2, 2025. ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Office of the Secretary, 45 L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554. In addition to filing comments with the FCC, interested parties should serve counsel for the Petitioner as follows: Joan Stewart, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, 2050 M Street NW, Washington, DC 20036. SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: PART 10—WIRELESS EMERGENCY ALERTS § 10.400 safeguard property during an emergency. Shaun Maher, Media Bureau, at Shaun.Maher@fcc.gov, (202) 418–2324, or Mark Colombo, Media Bureau, at Mark.Colombo@fcc.gov, (202) 418–7611. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 5, 2021, the Bureau granted a petition for rulemaking submitted by Gray to substitute channel 24 for channel 9 at Henderson for KVVU–TV. On February 28, 2022, Gray was granted a construction permit for its new channel, with an expiration date of February 28, 2025. Gray no longer plans to pursue construction of the proposed channel 24 facility. Thus, Gray requests amendment of the table to allow it to continue to operate on channel 9, and proposes to specify the technical parameters of its currently licensed channel 9 facility. We believe that the Petitioner’s channel substitution proposal for KVVU–TV warrants consideration. KVVU–TV is currently operating on channel 9 and the substitution of channel 9 for channel 24 in the table PO 00000 Frm 00011 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 will allow the Station to remain on the air and continue to provide service to viewers within its service area. Given that Gray proposes to utilize its currently licensed parameters, we believe channel 9 can be substituted for channel 24 at Henderson as proposed, in compliance with the principal community coverage requirements of § 73.618(a) of the Commission’s rules (Rules), at coordinates 36–00′–25.8″ N and 115–00′–24.9″ W. In addition, we find that this channel change meets the technical requirements set forth in § 73.622(a) of the Rules. This is a synopsis of the Commission’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), MB Docket No. 25–131; RM–11999; DA 25–211, adopted March 11, 2025, and released March 11, 2025.

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 7, 2021, the Bureau granted a petition for rulemaking submitted by Gray to substitute channel 21 for channel 12 at Portland for KPTV(TV). On August 10, 2022, Gray was granted a construction permit for its new channel, with an expiration date of August 10, 2025. In its Petition, Gray states that it is unable to complete construction of the channel 21 facility by the expiration date. Thus, Gray requests amendment of the table to allow it to continue to operate on channel 12, and proposes to specify the technical parameters of its currently licensed channel 12 facility.

[MB Docket No. 25-131; RM-11999; DA 25-211; FR ID 284975]


Television Broadcasting Services Henderson, Nevada

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Video Division, Media Bureau (Bureau), has before it a 
petition for rulemaking filed by Gray Television Licensee, LLC (Gray or 
Petitioner), the licensee of KVVU-TV, channel 9, Henderson, Nevada 
(Station or KVVU-TV). Petitioner requests that the Bureau substitute 
channel 9 for channel 24 at Henderson, Nevada in the Table of TV 
Allotments (table).

DATES: Comments must be filed on or before April 17, 2025 and reply 
comments on or before May 2, 2025.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Office of the Secretary, 
45 L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554. In addition to filing comments 
with the FCC, interested parties should serve counsel for the 
Petitioner as follows: Joan Stewart, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, 2050 M 
Street NW, Washington, DC 20036.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Shaun Maher, Media Bureau, at 
[email protected], (202) 418-2324, or Mark Colombo, Media Bureau, at 
Ma[email protected], (202) 418-7611.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 5, 2021, the Bureau granted a 
petition for rulemaking submitted by Gray to substitute channel 24 for 
channel 9 at Henderson for KVVU-TV. On February 28, 2022, Gray was 
granted a construction permit for its new channel, with an expiration 
date of February 28, 2025. Gray no longer plans to pursue construction 
of the proposed channel 24 facility. Thus, Gray requests amendment of 
the table to allow it to continue to operate on channel 9, and proposes 
to specify the technical parameters of its currently licensed channel 9 
facility.
    We believe that the Petitioner's channel substitution proposal for 
KVVU-TV warrants consideration. KVVU-TV is currently operating on 
channel 9 and the substitution of channel 9 for channel 24 in the table 
will allow the Station to remain on the air and continue to provide 
service to viewers within its service area. Given that Gray proposes to 
utilize its currently licensed parameters, we believe channel 9 can be 
substituted for channel 24 at Henderson as proposed, in compliance with 
the principal community coverage requirements of Sec.  73.618(a) of the 
Commission's rules (Rules), at coordinates 36-00'-25.8'' N and 115-00'-
24.9'' W. In addition, we find that this channel change meets the 
technical requirements set forth in Sec.  73.622(a) of the Rules.
    This is a synopsis of the Commission's Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking (NPRM), MB Docket No. 25-131; RM-11999; DA 25-211, adopted 
March 11, 2025, and released March 11, 2025. The full text of this

(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.
    Members of the public should note that all ex parte contacts are 
prohibited from the time a NPRM is issued to the time the matter is no 
longer subject to Commission consideration or court review, see 47 CFR 
1.1208. There are, however, exceptions to this prohibition, which can 
be found in Sec.  1.1204(a) of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 
1.1204(a).
    See Sec. Sec.  1.415 and 1.420 of the Commission's rules for 
information regarding the proper filing procedures for comments, 47 CFR 
1.415 and 1.420.
    Providing Accountability Through Transparency Act: The Providing 
Accountability Through Transparency Act, Public Law 118-9, requires 
each agency, in providing notice of a rulemaking, to post online a 
brief plain-language summary of the proposed rule. The required summary 
of this notice of proposed rulemaking is available at https://www.fcc.gov/proposed-rulemakings.
