FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

MB Docket No. 13-40; RM-11691; DA 14-547

Television Broadcasting Services; Seaford and Dover, Delaware

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Western Pacific Broadcast, LLC (``Western Pacific''), amends the Post-Transition Table of DTV Allotments to delete channel 5 at Seaford and substitute channel 5 at Dover, Delaware and to modify WMDE(TV)'s construction permit to specify Dover as the station's community of license. Western Pacific asserts that the change in community of license would serve the public interest by providing Dover, the second largest city in Delaware, with its first local television service and that the smaller community of Seaford would remain well-served after the reallotment.
