This is a synopsis of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) Report and Order, adopted March 28, 2023 and released March 28, 2023. The full text of this Commission decision is available online at https://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 Report and Order in this proceeding substituted Channel 288A for vacant Channel 237A at South Padre Island, Texas to accommodate the hybrid modification application for Station KRIX(FM), Port Isabel, Texas resulting in the public interest because it would enhanced service for Station KRIX(FM), Port Isabel, Texas. Channel 237A at South Padre Island, Texas is not currently listed in the FM Table of Allotments but is considered a vacant allotment resulting from the license cancellation of FM station DKZSP, Fac. ID No. 56473, South Padre Island, Texas. The Commission will send a copy of this Report and Order in a report to be sent to Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
