information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction

    The Provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 do not
apply to this proceeding. 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.
    For information regarding proper filing procedures for comments,
see 47 CFR 1.415 and 1.420.
