Act of 2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). 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.
