SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a summary of the Commission's Report 
and Order, MB Docket No. 07-296, adopted January 27, 2010, and released 
January 29, 2010. The full text of this Commission document is 
available for inspection and copying during normal business hours in 
the FCC Reference Information Center (Room CY-A257), 445 12th Street, 
SW., Washington, DC.
    The complete text of this decision may also be purchased from the 
Commission's copy contractor, Best Copy and Printing, Inc., 445 12th 
Street, SW, Room CY-B402, Washington, DC 20554, 800-378-3160 or via the 
company's website, <http://www.bcpiweb.com>.
    The Notice of Proposed Rule Making also included an Order to Show 
Cause directed to the licensee of Station WFLQ(FM), French Lick, 
Indiana, to show cause why its license should not be modified to 
specify operation on Channel 229A in lieu of Channel 261A. See 73 FR 
50296, published August 26, 2008. Although Station WFLQ(FM) argued that 
it should not be required to change channels, the Report and Order 
found that the station had not raised a substantial and material 
question of fact that would warrant a hearing on this issue. The 
document also states that the ultimate permittee of Channel 261A at 
Irvington, Kentucky, will be required to reimburse Station WFLQ(FM), 
French Lick, Indiana, for its reasonable and prudent costs associated 
with the involuntary channel change at French Lick. The reference 
coordinates for Channel 261A at Irvington are 37-56-52 NL and 86-24-54 
WL. The reference coordinates for Channel 229A at French Lick are 38-
35-41 NL and 86-36-48 WL. Finally, because Station WFLQ(FM) is a 
licensed station, the channel substitution at French Lick will be 
updated in the Commission's Consolidated Data Base System [CDBS].
    This document does not contain new or modified information 
collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
(PRA), Public Law 104-13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain 
any new or modified 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).
    The Commission will send a copy of this Report & Order in 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).
    Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not apply 
to this proceeding.
