Allotments, section 73.202(b) of the Commission's Rules, by allotting 
Channel 228C1 at Eagle Butte, South Dakota, as the first local Tribal-
owned service. A staff engineering analysis indicates that Channel 
228C1 can be allotted to Eagle Butte consistent with the minimum 
distance separation requirements of the Commission's rules with no site 
restriction. The reference coordinates are 45-01-32 NL and 101-14-22 
WL.

the FCC, interested parties should serve the petitioner as follows: 
Harold Frazier, Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe, P.O. Box 1683, Eagle Butte,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Adrienne Y. Denysyk, Media Bureau,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's 
Notice of Proposed Rule Making, MB Docket No. 16-182, adopted June 16, 
2016, and released June 17, 2016. 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 l980 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.
