FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 10-2236; MB Docket No. 10-108]


Radio Broadcasting Services: Pacific Junction, IA

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The staff deletes FM Channel 299C2 at Pacific Junction, Iowa, 
because the record in this proceeding reveals that there is no site to 
activate this allotment that would meet Federal Aviation Administration 
criteria regarding electromagnetic interference to instrument landing 
system configurations and the Commission's spacing requirements 
Further, there are no other FM channels that could be substituted for 
Channel 299C2 at Pacific Junction and no alternate FAA frequencies to 
remedy this problem.

DATES: Effective January 7, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew J. Rhodes, Media Bureau, (202) 
418-2180.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's 
Report and Order, MB Docket No. 10-108, adopted November 22, 2010, and 
released November 24, 2010. The full text of this Report and Order is 
available for inspection and copying during normal business hours in 
the FCC Reference Information Center (Room CY-A257), 445 12th Street,

    On the Commission's own motion, the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking 
in this proceeding solicited comment on deleting the Pacific Junction 
allotment due to difficulties encountered by Connoisseur Media LLC, the 
permittee of Station KGGG(FM), Channel 299C2, Pacific Junction, in 
overcoming objections raised by the FAA to the activation of this 
allotment. See 75 FR 30756 (June 2, 2010). No parties filed comments 
expressing an interest in retaining this allotment or suggested a site 
that would be technically feasible and meet FAA criteria. Accordingly, 
the allotment was deleted. In addition, Connoisseur's construction 
permit (File No. BNPH-20041228AAI, as modified by BMPH-20061019AAM) was 
cancelled and the KGGG(FM) call sign was deleted.
    Although the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking proposed the deletion of 
Channel 299C2, Pacific Junction, Iowa, from Section 73.202(b), the FM 
Table of Allotments, the channel is no longer listed in Section 
73.202(b) due to its authorization and is included instead in the Media 
Bureau's Consolidated Data Base System (``CDBS'') as a reserved 
assignment for Station KGGG(FM). Accordingly, the staff deleted Channel 
299C2 from the Media Bureau's CDBS instead of from Section 73.202(b).
    The Report and Order 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). The Commission will send a copy of the Report and Order in 
this proceeding 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).

Federal Communications Commission.

Assistant Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau.
