  • Radio Act, enacted on January 4, 2011, requires the Commission to modify its rules to eliminate third-adjacent minimum distance separation requirements between LPFM stations and FM, FM translator, and FM booster stations. The Commission will initiate a rulemaking in 2011 to conform this rule to the new legislation. Legal Basis: 47 U.S.C. 154, 303 and 316 Section Number and Title: 73.810 Third adjacent channel complaint and license modification procedure. Brief Description: This rule sets forth complaint procedures in circumstances in which an LPFM station causes interference to the input signal of an FM translator or FM booster station. Need: The Local Community Radio Act changed the distance separation requirements between LPFM stations and FM translators and FM booster stations. The Commission

On December 21, 2000, Congress enacted the Preservation Act, which did three things of relevance to this appeal. Section 632(a)(1)(A) directed the Commission to amend the LPFM rules to "prescribe minimum distance separations for third-adjacent channels (as well as for co-channels and first- and second-adjacent channels)" (emphasis added).

The procedures are set forth in Section 73.810 of the rules. As noted, in 2001, we adopted third-adjacent channel spacing requirements at the direction of Congress. While we did not delete the third-adjacent channel complaint and license modification procedures from our rules, with the adoption of the spacing requirements, the procedures became irrelevant.
