Effective August 20, 2012 and applicable July 27, 2012. 47 CFR Part 73 SummaryThe Audio Division unreserved Channel 239A at Westley, California for noncommercial educational (“NCE”) use by operation of law since none of the applications in NCE Reserved Allotment Group No. 8 would provide the requisite level of first and second NCE use.

typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2012-17785 RIN MB Docket No.12-115 DA12-1084 FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Final rule. Effective August 20, 2012. 47 CFR Part 73 SummaryThe Audio Division, on its own motion, deletes four vacant allotments in various communities in Arkansas, Michigan, Montana, and Washington. These vacant allotments have been auctioned through our competitive bidding process, and are considered unsold permits that were included in Auction 93. We are deleting these vacant allotments from the FM Table, because there were no bona fide expressions of interest filed to retain these four vacant allotments. Deletion of these allotments may create other opportunities in nearby communities for new FM allotments or upgrades of existing stations. We conclude that the deletion of these vacant allotments could promote a more effective and efficient use of the FM broadcast spectrum. See Supplementary Information, supra.
