SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 18934 on April 12, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of the petition. No other comments were filed. We believe the public interest would be served by allotting channel 10 at Oswego, Illinois. Oswego (pop. 34,383) is the largest community in Kendall County, Illinois, and clearly qualifies for community of license status for allotment purposes. In addition, the proposal would result in a first local service to Oswego. Moreover, the allotment is consistent with the minimum geographic spacing requirements for new DTV allotments in the Commission's rules, and the allotment point complies with the rules as the entire community of Oswego is encompassed by the 43 dBμ contour. Finally, since the Petitioner does not propose any changes in WAOE's authorized facilities, the authorized and proposed facilities are mutually exclusive.

This is a synopsis of the Commission's Report and Order, MB Docket No. 21-54; RM-11879; DA 21-702, adopted June 16, 2021, and released June 16, 2021.

This document does not contain 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, see44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, 5 U.S.C. 601-612, do not apply to this proceeding.

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, see5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
