SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control No.: 3060–1135 

Expiration Date: 08/31/2010 

Title: Revisions to Rules Authorizing 

the Operation of Low Power Auxiliary 

Stations (Wireless Microphones). 

Estimated Annual Burden: $1,625,000 

total annual cost; 32,924 total annual 

hours. 

Needs and Uses: In the Report and 

Order 1 in WT Docket No. 08–166, WT 

Docket No. 08–167, ET Docket No. 10– 

24, FCC 10–16, adopted January 14, 

2010 and released on January 15, 2010, 

the Federal Communications 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) modified 

the rules authorizing the operation of 

low power auxiliary stations (wireless 

microphones). The Report and Order 

requires all wireless microphones to 

cease operations in the 700 MHz Band 

(698–806 MHz) no later than June 12, 

2010, making the band available for use 

by public safety entities such as police, 

fire, emergency services, and 

commercial licensees. To effectuate the 

Commission’s plan to clear wireless 

microphones from the 700 MHz Band, 

the Report and Order provides an early 

clearing mechanism for the 700 MHz 

Band; requires that any person who 

manufactures wireless microphones or 

sells, leases, or offers them for sale or 

lease must display a disclosure at the 

point of sale or lease that informs 

consumers of the conditions that apply 

to the operation of wireless 

microphones in the core TV bands; and 

requires any person who manufactures, 

sells, leases, or offers for sale or lease, 

wireless microphones capable of 

operating in the 700 MHz Band that are 

destined for non U.S. markets, to 

include labeling that makes clear that 

the devices cannot be operated in the 

United States. In a related order under 

delegated authority,2 the Wireless 

Telecommunications Bureau and 

Consumer and Governmental Affairs 

Bureau of the Federal Communications 

Commission have adopted the specific

disclosure at the point of sale. 

On January 22, 2010, the Commission 

requested emergency approval of the 

information collection requirements 

from the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB).3 On February 17, 2010, 

the Commission received OMB 

approval. The OMB control number for 

this collection is 3060–1135. This 

information collection will be used to 

ensure that these microphones do not 

continue to be used or continue to be 

made available for use in the United 

States in the 700 MHz Band, in 

contravention of the steps taken by the 

Commission to make the 700 MHz Band 

available for use by public safety 

entities and commercial licensees, and 

to provide them a home in the core TV 

spectrum.

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: The staff grants a rulemaking 

petition filed by Katherine Pyeatt to 

allot Channel 283A to Markham, Texas, 

as a second local service. The staff also 

grants a counterproposal filed by Fort 

Bend Broadcasting Company, licensee 

of Station KHTZ(FM), Ganado, Texas, to 

upgrade Station KHTZ(FM) from 

Channel 284C2 to Channel 235C and to 

modify its license accordingly. 

DATES: Effective March 15, 2010.

Commission, 445 12th Street, SW,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

summary of the Commission’s Report 

and Order, MB Docket No. 07–163, 

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.

company’s website, <http:// 

www.bcpiweb.com>. 

The Notice of Proposed Rule Making 

in this proceeding proposed the 

allotment of Channel 235A at Markham, 

Texas. As described above, Fort Bend 

Broadcasting proposed the upgrade of 

its Station KHTZ(FM), Ganado, Texas, 

from Channel 284C2 to Channel 235C at 

a new transmitter site and the 

modification of its license to specify 

operation on non–adjacent Channel 

235C. The document explains that it 

was not necessary to compare these 

conflicting proposals because an 

alternate channel is available for 

allotment at Markham. Specifically, the 

document allots Channel 283A at 

Markham in lieu of Channel 235A. 

Because the conflict was resolved, the 

document also grants Fort Bend’s 

counterproposal to upgrade Station 

KHTZ(FM) to Channel 235C. To 

accommodate this upgrade, the 

document substitutes Channel 284C3 for 

Channel 236C3 at Victoria, Texas, and 

modifies the license for Station 

KVIC(FM), Victoria, to specify operation 

on Channel 284C3. Finally, because Fort 

Bend’s counterproposal involves 

licensed stations, the channel 

substitutions for Station KHTZ(FM) at 

Gandado, Texas, and for KVIC(FM), 

Victoria, Texas, 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 

the 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.
