FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[DA 25-121; FR ID 280112]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Various Locations
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document amends the Table of FM Allotments, of the
Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules, by removing
certain vacant FM allotment channels that were auctioned through our FM
competitive bidding process and are no longer considered vacant FM
allotments. The FM allotments are currently authorized licensed
stations. FM assignments for authorized stations and reserved
facilities will be reflected solely in Media Bureau's Licensing
Management System (LMS). These FM allotment channels have previously
undergone notice and comment rule making. This action constitutes an
editorial change in the FM Table of Allotments. Therefore, we find for
good cause that further notice and comment are unnecessary.
DATES: Effective February 19, 2025.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rolanda F. Smith, Media Bureau, (202)
418-2054, [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's
Order, adopted February 10, 2025, and released February 10, 2025. The
full text of this Commission decision is available online at https://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/. The full text of this document can also be
downloaded in Word or Portable Document Format (PDF) at https://www.fcc.gov/edocs. This document does not contain information
collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,

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), because the Order is a ministerial action.
