Conflicts.
    Form Number: Not applicable.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities; Not-for-profit 
institutions.

    Needs and Uses: 47 CFR 73.3525 requires applicants for a 
construction permit for a broadcast station to obtain approval from the 
FCC to withdraw, dismiss, or amend its application when that applicant 
is in conflict with another application pending before the FCC. This 
request should contain a copy of the agreement and an affidavit of each 
party to the agreement. In the event that the proposed withdrawal of a 
conflicting application would unduly impede achievement of a fair, 
efficient, and equitable distribution of radio service, the FCC must 
issue an order providing further opportunity to apply for the 
facilities specified in the application(s) withdrawn. Upon release of 
this order, 47 CFR section 73.3525(b) requires that the party proposing 
withdrawal of its application give notice in a daily newspaper of 
general circulation published in the community in which the proposed 
station would have been located. Additionally, within seven days of the 
last publication of the notice, the applicant proposing to withdraw 
shall file with the FCC a statement giving the dates the notice was 
published, the text of the notice, and the name and location of the 
newspaper where the notice was published. The newspaper publication 
gives interested parties an opportunity to apply for the facilities 
specified in the withdrawn application(s).

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.
