FCC Sets Comment, Reply Dates For Proposal To Eliminate Common TV And FM Antenna Site Rule

Comments Due

With the publication of the notice in the Federal Register, comment and reply dates are now set for the FCC's proposal to eliminate the rule requiring access to common FM and TV broadcast antenna sites.

Comments in MB Docket Nos. 19-282 and 17-105, part of the Commission's Modernization of Media Regulation Initiative, are due DECEMBER 6th, and reply comments are due DECEMBER 23rd. The proposal, which would eliminate a rule on the books since 1947, would no longer require licensees to make their antenna sites available to other broadcasters if the sites are "peculiarly suitable for broadcasting in the area."
