FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[DA 23-209; MB Docket No. 23-86; RM-11948; FR ID 132368]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Tecopa, California
AGENCY:
Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION:
Proposed rule.
SUMMARY:
This document requests comments on a petition for rule making filed by Shamrock Communications, Inc., proposing to amend the FM Table of Allotments, by substituting Channel 256A for vacant Channel 288A at Tecopa, California to accommodate the hybrid modification application for Station KRZQ(FM) that proposes to upgrade from Channel 290C1 to Channel 291C at Amargosa Valley, Nevada. A staff engineering analysis indicates that Channel 256A can be allotted to Tecopa, California, consistent with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Commission's rules, with a site restriction of 2.3 km (1.4 miles) northwest of the community. The reference coordinates are 35-50-48 NL and 116-13-27 WL.
DATES:
Comments must be filed on or before May 5, 2023, and reply comments on or before May 22, 2023.

Members of the public should note that from the time a Notice of Proposed Rule Making is issued until the matter is no longer subject to Commission consideration or court review, all ex parte contacts are prohibited in Commission proceedings, such as this one, which involve channel allotments. See 47 CFR 1.1204(b) for rules governing permissible ex parte contacts.
