### Information Collection Being Submitted for Review and Approval to Office of Management and Budget

*Notice* — Federal Communications Commission

As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or the Commission) invites the general public and other Federal Agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the following information collection. Pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, the FCC seeks specific comment on how it might further reduce the information collection burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The Commission may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a valid OMB control number.

### Establishing the Digital Opportunity Data Collection; Modernizing the FCC Form 477 Data Program; Delete, Delete, Delete; Corrections

*Rule* — Federal Communications Commission

On June 24, 2026, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) published a final rule which became effective on July 24, 2026. That document inadvertently failed to revise a certain defined term in FCC regulations. This document corrects the final rule.

### Television Broadcasting Services Colusa, California

*Proposed Rule* — Federal Communications Commission

This document proposes to amend the Table of TV Allotments (Table) of the Federal Communications Commission's (Commission) rules in response to a petition for rulemaking filed by One Ministries, Inc. (Petitioner), the licensee of NCE television station KEDS(TV) (KEDS or Station), Colusa, California (Colusa). The Petitioner requests the substitution of UHF channel *14 in place of its current VHF channel *2 at Colusa in the Table with the technical parameters specified in the Petition. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner asserts that allowing the Station to move to a UHF channel would serve the public interest by improving signal reception for viewers. The Petitioner observes that the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have certain characteristics that have posed challenges for their use in providing digital television service, including propagation characteristics allowing undesired signals and noise to be receivable at relatively farther distances. Additionally, the Petitioner notes that the Commission has observed large variability in the performance of indoor antennas available to consumers, with most antennas receiving fairly well at UHF and the substantial majority not so well to very poor at high-VHF. An engineering statement provided by the Petitioner confirms that the proposed channel *14 contour would provide full principal community coverage to Colusa.

Everything on this page is also a tool call. Add `mcp.downstream.sh` as an MCP server — no key, no
account — then paste this:

```
Using the Downstream MCP server at mcp.downstream.sh, call whats_new_since with agency "Federal Communications Commission" since 2026-08-27, then summarise what changed and list every deadline it created.
```

Reaches `whats_new_since`. The response carries its own citations and states what it is missing,
including which dates it has no record for.

Every document linked here is a work of the United States government and in the public domain.
The Federal Register's HTML and XML renderings are unofficial; the PDF on each item is the
official text, and that is the one to cite.

Counts are arithmetic over published fields, dates are printed as filed, and titles are verbatim.
Where we have nothing, this says nothing rather than estimating. The one-sentence agency summaries
are machine-written from those same fields and are labelled where they appear.
