BILLING CODE 9111-19-P FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION 47 CFR Part 73 [FRS 16933; DA 20-719] Radio Broadcasting Services; Various Locations AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: This document amends the FM Table of Allotments, of the Commission's rules, by reinstating certain vacant FM allotments. These FM allotments are considered vacant because of the cancellation of the associated authorizations and licenses, or the dismissal of long-form auction applications.
Theses vacant FM allotments have previously undergone notice and comment rule making. Reinstatement of the vacant allotments is merely a ministerial action to effectuate licensing procedures. Therefore, we find for good cause that further notice and comment are unnecessary. DATES: Effective August 10, 2020. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rolanda F. Smith, Media Bureau,
(202)418-2700. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's *Order,* adopted July 10, 2020 and released July 10, 2020. The full text of this Commission decision is available online at *http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/.* This document does not contain information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. The Commission will not send a copy of the *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) because the *Order* is a ministerial action.
