filed by Wind River Broadcasting, Inc., proposing to amend the FM Table 
of Allotments, of the Commission's rules, by allotting Channel 274C2 at 
Cora, Wyoming, as a first local service. A staff engineering analysis 
indicates that Channel 274C2 can be allotted to Cora, consistent with 
the minimum distance separation requirements of the Commission's rules 
without a site restriction. The reference coordinates are 43-03-24 NL 
and 110-08-07 WL.

reply comments on or before October 6, 2017.

Street SW., Washington, DC 20554. In addition to filing comments with 
the FCC, interested parties should serve counsel for the petitioner as 
follows: Dan J. Alpert, Esq., The Law Office of Dan J. Alpert, 2120 N.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's 
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), MB Docket No. 17-196, adopted 
July 28, 2017 and released July 31, 2017. The full text of this 
Commission decision is available for inspection and copying during 
normal business hours in the FCC's Reference Information Center at 
Portals II, CY-A257, 445 Twelfth Street SW., Washington, DC 20554. The 
full text is also available online at http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/. 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).
    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.
