occurred when implementing the grant 

and to regularly measure the project’s

to meet the performance measures included 

in the Notice of Grant Award (NGA)? 

If a sponsor fails to meet a target 

performance measure established in the 

NGA, the Corporation will negotiate a 

period of no more than one year for 

meeting the performance measure. At 

that point, if the sponsor still fails to 

meet the performance measure, the 

Corporation may take one or more of the 

following actions: 

(a) Reduce the amount of the grant; 

(b) Suspend, terminate, or deny 

refunding of the grant, in accordance 

with the provisions of Section 2553.31 

of this part; 

(c) Take this information into account 

in assessing any application from the 

organization for a new grant or 

augmentation of an existing grant under 

any program administered by the 

Corporation; 

(d) Amend the terms of any 

Corporation grant to the organization; or 

(e) Take other actions that the

Final Rule 

For the reasons discussed in the

Commission amends 47 CFR part 73 as 

follows: 

PART 73—RADIO BROADCAST 

SERVICES 

■ 1. The authority citation for part 73 

continues to read as follows:

47 CFR Part 73 

[DA 11–488] 

Update Station License Expiration 

Dates 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In this document the Federal 

Communications Commission updates 

its rules to reflect the current license 

expiration dates for radio and television 

broadcast stations. The current version 

of the rule specifies license expiration 

dates from 2011 through 2014 for radio 

stations and 2012 through 2015 for 

television stations; these expiration 

dates are long out of date. Modifying the 

rule will enable broadcast station 

licensees to quickly peruse the rule to 

determine when their stations’ licenses 

will expire. It will also accurately reflect 

the expiration dates listed both in the 

Commission’s data base and on the 

broadcast stations’ most recent license 

or renewal authorization. 

DATES: Effective April 12, 2011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Michael Wagner 202–418–2775. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Communications Commission 

considers this rule to be a procedural 

rule change which is exempt from 

notice-and-comment under 5 U.S.C. 

553(b)(3)(A). 

This rule is not a significant rule for 

purposes of Executive Order 12866 and 

has not been reviewed by the Office of 

Management and Budget. As required 

by the Regulatory Flexibility Act, the 

Federal Communications Commission 

certifies that these regulatory 

amendments will not have a significant 

impact on small business entities. 

The Commission will not send a copy 

of this item pursuant to the 

Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 

801(a)(1)(A), because the changes made 

involve only the year in which 

broadcast station licenses expire. There 

are no substantive or procedural 

changes to any rule. 

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).
