COMMISSION 

47 CFR Part 73 

[MB Docket No. 22–78; RM–11918; DA 22– 

189; FR ID 74154] 

Television Broadcasting Services 

Wichita, Kansas 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: The Commission has before it 

a petition for rulemaking filed by Gray 

Television Licensee, LLC (Petitioner), 

the licensee of KSCW–DT, channel 12, 

Wichita, Kansas. The Petitioner requests 

the substitution of channel 28 for 

channel 12 at in the Table of 

Allotments. 

DATES: Comments must be filed on or 

before April 6, 2022 and reply 

comments on or before April 21, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications 

Commission, Office of the Secretary, 45 

L Street NE, Washington, DC 20554. In 

addition to filing comments with the 

FCC, interested parties should serve 

counsel for the Petitioner as follows: 

Joan Stewart, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, 

2050 M Street NW, Washington, DC 

20036. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Joyce Bernstein, Media Bureau, at (202) 

418–1647; or Joyce Bernstein, Media 

Bureau, at Joyce.Bernstein@fcc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

support, the Petitioner states that the 

proposed channel substitution serves 

the public interest because it will 

resolve significant over-the-air reception 

problems in KSCW–DT’s existing 

service area. The Petitioner further 

states that the Commission has 

recognized the deleterious effects 

manmade noise has on the reception of 

digital VHF signals, and that the 

propagation characteristics of these 

channels allow undesired signals and 

noise to be receivable at relatively 

farther distances compared to UHF 

channels and nearby electrical devices 

can cause interference. According to the 

Petitioner, although the proposed 

channel 28 noise limited contour will 

fall slightly short of the licensed 

channel 12 noise limited contour, a 

terrain-limited analysis using the 

Commission’s TVStudy software 

demonstrates that there is no predicted 

loss in population served. 

This is a synopsis of the 

Commission’s Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking, MB Docket No. 22–78; 

RM–11918; DA 22–189, adopted 

February 22, 2022, and released 

February 23, 2022. The full text of this

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, see 44 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. 

Members of the public should note 

that all ex parte contacts are prohibited 

from the time a Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking is issued to the time the 

matter is no longer subject to 

Commission consideration or court 

review, see 47 CFR 1.1208. There are, 

however, exceptions to this prohibition, 

which can be found in Section 1.1204(a) 

of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 

1.1204(a). 

See Sections 1.415 and 1.420 of the 

Commission’s rules for information
