Had we not found Florida's Petition procedurally defective, we would have denied it on substantive grounds. In its cited waiver requests to use offset channels, Florida stated that it was the licensee of the channels above and below the offset channels and had configured its network so that 12.5 kHz offset operation would not result

- balance due process concerns with the Commission's enforcement powers and duties. Kay maintains that, while the Commission is free to disagree with his balancing, the Commission must address each specific proposal and indicate why each proposal lacks merit or would otherwise not be in the public interest. 7. We disagree with Kay's characterization of our responsibilities. Under 47 C.F.R. 1.401(e), we have broad authority to summarily deny petitions for rulemaking that ``plainly do not warrant consideration.''

While the details of such filings will be fully implemented in later proceedings, we deem it appropriate at this stage to remove any impediments to full implementation of electronic filing. Accordingly, we propose to eliminate the current exception, contained in Section 1.401(b) of our rules, for electronic submission of petitions for rulemaking submitted in broadcast allocations proceedings. We seek comment on this proposal. Also, to the extent that we adopt the proposal to remove the Table from the Commission's rules, we seek comment on whether and how best to enable electronic filing of proceedings to amend the Table. 40.

- extend those benefits to the allocations process. 27. None of the commenters that addressed this proposal opposed it. We remain convinced that electronic filing of allocations submissions will streamline the amendment process, enhance the accuracy and reliability of the FM database, and enable us to serve the public more efficiently. Therefore, we will adopt our proposal to eliminate from Section 1.401(b) of our Rules the prohibition against electronic submission of petitions for rule making in broadcast allocations proceedings. The Media Bureau and Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau will announce, by public notice, such procedures as they will devise for submission of broadcast allocations petitions and other documents.

We then discuss why an extension of the mandate could impede Phase II E911 deployment, as well as the deployment of advanced services to the public, particularly consumers in rural America. The Commission's Authority to Address the Petition for Rulemaking ADV contends that the Petition should be dismissed pursuant to Section 1.401(e), asserting that the analog service requirement applies only to mobile cellular telephones and does not apply to fixed alarm monitoring services. ADV notes that when the Commission adopted the Analog Sunset Order, it determined that fixed devices (specifically, highway call boxes) were beyond the scope of the analog service requirement, and that the Commission is thereby precluded from granting the

Therefore, we will adopt our proposal to eliminate from Section 1.401(b) of our Rules the prohibition against electronic submission of petitions for rule making in broadcast allocations proceedings. The Media Bureau and Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau will announce, by public notice, such procedures as they will devise for submission of broadcast allocations petitions and other documents.

However, the petitioner is not required to actually apply for the construction permit. Not surprisingly, many petitioners never apply for permits, since the petitioning process is tedious and often lengthy; see 47 C.F.R. 1.401 et seq. and particularly 47 C.F.R. 1.420. The petitioner may have moved or passed away by the time the allotment is placed in the FM Table and the permit is offered for auction. In practice, many times more applicants actually (and energetically) seek permits for allotments they did not earlier petition for than the number of applicants that filed petitions.

To the extent that the objectors believe that recent studies indicate that there are more significant effects of long-term low-level exposure to RF radiation from broadcast facilities, these suggestions are more appropriately raised in a petition for rulemaking with the Commission pursuant to Section 1.401 of the Rules or with other expert agencies upon which the Commission relies rather than in a fact-specific adjudicatory proceeding such as this.

While the details of such filings will be fully implemented in later proceedings, we deem it appropriate at this stage to remove any impediments to full implementation of electronic filing. Accordingly, we propose to eliminate the current exception, contained in Section 1.401(b) of our rules, for electronic submission of petitions for rulemaking submitted in broadcast allocations proceedings. We seek comment on this proposal. Also, to the extent that we adopt the proposal to remove the Table from the Commission's rules, we seek comment on whether and how best to enable electronic filing of proceedings to amend the Table. 40.

We remain convinced that electronic filing of allocations submissions will streamline the amendment process, enhance the accuracy and reliability of the FM database, and enable us to serve the public more efficiently. Therefore, we will adopt our proposal to eliminate from Section 1.401(b) of our Rules the prohibition against electronic submission of petitions for rule making in broadcast allocations proceedings. The Media Bureau and Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau will announce, by public notice, such procedures as they will devise for submission of broadcast allocations petitions and other documents.

The Commission also proposes to eliminate a rule-based prohibition on electronic filing of documents in proceedings to amend the FM Table of Allotments (47 CFR 1.401(b)). Currently over 95 percent of broadcast applications are filed electronically, and these procedures have led to increased efficiency, transparency, and database integrity. As a first step toward extending those benefits to the FM allotment process, the Commission proposes removing the current prohibition against electronic filing of allocations documents.

- (waiver provision). By statute, a denial of an application for a license or request for a waiver is appealable to the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, fulfilling the second Freedman requirement. See 47 U.S.C. 402(b)(1). Moreover, any party may submit a petition for the issuance, amendment or repeal of any FCC rule or regulation. See 47 C.F.R. 1.401(a). A petition for rule-making is subject to the procedures set forth in 47 C.F.R. Part 1 Subpart C. Any denial of a petition for the issuance, amendment or repeal of a rule or regulation is a final order of the FCC subject to appeal in any court of appeals. See 47 U.S.C. 402(a); 28 U.S.C. 2342. The Court finds that

- and request for a waiver are denied by the FCC, the government argues that Fried can then appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, pursuant to 47 U.S.C. 402(b)(1). Alternatively, the government argues that Fried can challenge the constitutionality of the microbroadcasting regulations by filing a petition for rulemaking pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 1.401, and, if that petition is denied, then seek judicial review in any court of appeals, pursuant to 47 U.S.C. 402(a). This is a difficult issue, and the cases are not easy to reconcile. Nonetheless, we think Fried's argument is persuasive. In particular, we are persuaded by the statutory analysis in Dougan v. FCC, 21 F.3d 1488. In that case, the

See 47 C.F.R.S 73.3566(a) (noting that a waiver application must "show the nature of the waiver or exception desired and shall set forth the reasons in support thereof"). [20]^10 47 C.F.R. 1.401(a) provides that "[a]ny interested person may petition for the issuance, amendment or repeal of a rule or regulation" of the FCC. Indeed, the FCC's new lower power regulations were established in response to a petition for a rulemaking.

FCC Br. at 30 n.108 (citing 47 C.F.R. 1.2 (motion for declaratory ruling); id. 1.41 (informal request for FCC action); id. 1.401 (petition for rulemaking); id. 1.1307(c) (petition alleging that action otherwise categorically excluded from environ- mental review will have significant environmental effect)). The closest thing in the record to a request for FCC action is Tennant's December 1998 letter to the ACHP, a copy of which was sent to the chairman of the FCC. Tennant and the amicus curiae we

- was unable to begin construction because 3 the required equipment was not commercially available, and that the Commission therefore should have, sua sponte, exempted NSTN and all similarly-situated applicants from the one-year construction requirement. This amounts to an argument that the Commission's rules should be different. There are formal avenues for the pursuit of such changes, e.g., 47 C.F.R. 1.401 (governing petitions for Commission rulemaking), but these procedures notwithstanding, NSTN must comply with the rules as they are, and not the rules as it believes they should be. NSTN's other excuse is that it did not apply for an extension because the Commission clearly would have denied any such application. Failure to pursue administrative remedies will be excused for futility
