FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[DA 17–1227] 

Media Bureau Freezes the Filing of 

Minor Change Applications for LPTV/ 

Translator Stations 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This document announces a 

freeze on the filing of minor change 

applications by low power television 

and TV translator stations. 

DATES: This filing limitation became 

effective on December 20, 2017. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Shaun Maher, Video Division, Media 

Bureau, Federal Communications 

Commission, Shaun.Maher@fcc.gov, 

(202) 418–2324. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective 

immediately, the Media Bureau 

announces a freeze on the filing of 

applications for minor change 

applications for low power television 

(LPTV) and TV translator stations. The 

incentive auction is being conducted 

pursuant to Title VI of the Middle Class 

Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. 

It includes a ‘‘reverse auction’’ and 

reorganization or ‘‘repacking’’ of the 

broadcast television bands in order to 

free up a portion of the ultra-high 

frequency band for new flexible uses. 

The facilities of LPTV and TV translator 

stations are not protected during 

repacking. ‘‘Operating’’ LPTV and TV 

translator stations displaced by 

repacking will be permitted to file 

displacement applications in a special 

window to be opened following the 

completion of the auction. ‘‘Operating’’ 

stations are defined as those that have 

licensed their authorized construction 

permit facilities or have an application 

for a license to cover on file with the 

Commission on the release date of the 

incentive auction Closing and Channel 

Reassignment Public Notice. 

To facilitate the special window for 

displaced LPTV and TV translator 

stations and to protect the opportunity 

for LPTV and TV translator stations 

displaced by the repacking of the 

television bands to obtain a new 

channel in the special window from the 

limited number of channels likely to be 

available for application after repacking, 

the Media Bureau deems it appropriate 

to freeze the acceptance of minor change 

applications at this time. The Media 

Bureau will continue to process pending 

minor change applications. Following 

completion of the special window for 

displaced LPTV/translator stations, the 

Media Bureau will announce when it 

will again begin accepting minor change 

applications. 

The Media Bureau will consider, on a 

case-by-case basis, requests for waiver of 

the filing limitation imposed by this 

Public Notice when a minor change 

application is necessary or otherwise in 

the public interest for technical or other 

reasons to maintain quality service to 

the public. As with any request for 

waiver of our rules, such a request will 

be granted only on a showing of good 

cause and when grant of the waiver will 

serve the public interest.

1260 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 7 / Wednesday, January 10, 2018 / Notices 

The decision to impose this freeze is 

procedural in nature, and therefore is 

not subject to the notice and comment 

and effective date requirements of the 

Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 

553(b)(A), (d). Moreover, the Media 

Bureau finds that there is good cause for 

not delaying the effect of these 

procedures until 30 days after 

publication in the Federal Register. 

Such a delay would be impractical, 

unnecessary, and contrary to the public 

interest because it would undercut the 

purposes of the freeze. 

This action is taken by the Chief, 

Media Bureau pursuant to authority 

delegated by 47 CFR 0.283 of the 

Commission’s rules. 

Federal Communications Commission.
