FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[FCC 06-119; MM Docket No. 01-11; RM-10027; RM-10322]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Arcadia, Desert Hot Springs,
Fallbrook, Murrieta, and Yucca Valley, CA
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rule; denial of application for review.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Commission denied an application for review filed by the
licensee of Stations KSSE(FM), Arcadia, CA, and KSSD(FM), Fallbrook,
CA, of a Report and Order in this proceeding, which had denied its
rulemaking petition to upgrade the class of Station KSSE(FM) from
Channel 296A to Channel 296B1. The Commission determined that the
rulemaking proposal could not be implemented because the licensee of
Station KDGL(FM), Yucca Valley, CA, had withdrawn its consent to a
downgrade in channel class and a site relocation, which is necessary to
effectuate the upgrade. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a synopsis of the Commission's
Memorandum Opinion and Order, MM Docket No. 01-11, adopted August 10,
2006, and released August 17, 2006. The full text of this Commission
decision is available for inspection and copying during normal business

The Commission also clarified the scope of permissible facility
changes for pre-1964, grandfathered short-spaced stations under Section
73.213(a)(4) such as KSSE(FM). Although these stations are exempt from
the second-adjacent and third-adjacent channel separation requirements
set forth in Section 73.207, they are not permitted to upgrade their
facilities beyond class maximums. See 67 FR 65721 (October 28, 2002).
This document is not subject to the Congressional Review Act. (The
Commission, is, therefore, not required to submit a copy of this
Memorandum Opinion and Order to GAO, pursuant to the Congressional
Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A) because the application for
review was denied.)

Secretary.
