AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: This document sets forth a proposal to amend the FM Table of 
Allotments, Section 73.202(b) of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 
73.202(b). The Audio Division requests comment on a petition filed by 
Clear Channel Broadcasting Licenses, Inc., pursuant to Section 1.420(i) 
of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 1.420(i). Petitioner proposes to 
change the community of license for Station WZKF(FM) from Salem, 
Indiana, to Prospect, Kentucky, and to change the FM Table of 
Allotments by deleting Channel 255B at Salem, Indiana, and by adding 
Channel 255B at Prospect, Kentucky, as the community's first local 
aural broadcast service. The proposed coordinates for Channel 255B at 
Prospect, Kentucky, are 38-25-59 NL and 85-50-01 WL. The allotment will 
require a site restriction of 21.4 km (13.3 miles) northwest of 
Prospect.

DATES: Comments must be filed on or before May 9, 2005, and reply 
comments on or before May 24, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554. In 
addition to filing comments with the FCC, interested parties should 
serve counsel for the petitioner as follows: Mark N. Lipp, Esq., Scott 
Woodworth, Esq., Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., 1455 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., 
Suite 600, Washington, DC 20004-1008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's 
Notice of Proposed Rule Making, MB Docket No. 05-120; adopted March 16, 
2005, and released March 18, 2005. The full text of this Commission 
document is available for inspection and copying during normal business 
hours in the FCC Reference Information Center (Room CY-A257), 445 12th 
Street, SW., Washington, DC. The complete text of this decision may 
also be purchased from the Commission's copy contractor, Best Copy and 
Printing, Inc., 445 12th Street, SW., Room CY-B402, Washington, DC 
20554, (800) 378-3160, or via the company's Web site, http://www.bcpiweb.com. This document does not contain proposed 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).
    Channel 255B at Salem, Indiana under Section 73.202(b), FM Table of 
Allotments, was inadvertently removed from the 1992 Code of Federal 
Regulations. As such, Channel 255B at Salem is not listed under Indiana 
in the FM Table of Allotments.
    The Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not 
apply to this proceeding. Members of the public should note that from 
the time a Notice of Proposed Rule Making is issued until the matter is 
no longer subject to Commission consideration or court review, all ex 
parte contacts are prohibited in Commission proceedings, such as this 
one, which involve channel

allotments. See 47 CFR 1.1204(b) for rules governing permissible ex 
parte contacts.
    For information regarding proper filing procedures for comments, 
see 47 CFR 1.415 and 1.420.
