47 CFR Part 73

[DA 10-275; MB Docket No. 09-187; RM-11576]


FM Table of Allotments, Buffalo and Centerville, Texas

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Audio Division grants a rulemaking petition filed by 
Kaherine Pyeatt, the permittee of Station KKLB(FM), Madisonville, 
Texas, to substitute FM Channel 278A for vacant Channel 299A at 
Buffalo, Texas, and Channel 267A for vacant Channel 278A at 
Centerville, Texas.

DATES: Effective April 5, 2010.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th Street, SW., 
Washington, DC 20554.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew J. Rhodes, Media Bureau, (202)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a summary of the Commission's Report 
and Order, MB Docket No. 09-187, adopted February 17, 2010, and 
released February 19, 2010. 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

    The Notice of Proposed Rule Making stated that Pyeatt's rulemaking 
petition was filed as part of a hybrid application and rulemaking 
proceeding. See 74 FR 57281, published November 5, 2009. In the 
application (File No. BMPH-20090831ADM), Pyeatt proposes the 
substitution of FM Channel 299A for Channel 267A at Madisonville, 
Texas, and the modification of the construction permit for Station 
KKLB(FM), Madisonville, to specify operation on Channel 299A.
    The Report and Order states that the channel substitutions at 
Buffalo and Centerville, Texas, serve the public interest because they 
will accommodate grant of the hybrid application, enabling Station 
KKLB(FM) to change channels at a tower site located closer to its 
community of license. The reference coordinates for Channel 278A at 
Buffalo, Texas, are 31-21-09 NL and 95-59-47 WL. The reference 
coordinates for Channel 267A at Centerville, Texas, are 31-14-17 NL and 
96-05-34 WL. The Report and Order also grants Pyeatt's hybrid 
application.
    Currently, Channel 278A is not listed in the FM Table of Allotments 
under Centerville, Texas, but is a vacant FM allotment at that 
community. Channel 278A was allotted at Centerville in MM Docket No. 
99-257. See 64 FR 59124, published November 2, 1999. A construction 
permit for Channel 278A at Centerville was issued to Station KKEV(FM). 
See File No. BNPH-20060310AA1. As a result of the issuance of the 
construction permit, Channel 278A at Centerville was removed from the 
FM Table of Allotments in MB Docket 05-210. See 71 FR 76208, published 
December 20, 2006. However, the Station KKEV(FM) construction permit 
was cancelled on May 24, 2009, making the Channel 278A allotment 
vacant. As stated above, we are substituting Channel 267A for vacant 
Channel 278A at Centerville to accommodate the Station KKLB(FM) hybrid 
application.
    This document does not contain any information collection 
requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 
104-13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain any 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).
    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).
    Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not apply 
to this proceeding.
