FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[MB Docket No. 14-1; RM-11710; DA 14-363]


Television Broadcasting Services; South Bend, Indiana

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: A petition for rulemaking was filed by LeSEA Broadcasting of 
South Bend, Inc. (``LeSEA''), the licensee of station WHME-TV, channel 
48, South Bend, Indiana. Previously, the Commission substituted channel 
46 for channel 48 at LeSEA's request, and LeSEA now seeks to return to 
its previously allotted channel 48. LeSEA believes that grant of this 
reallotment would serve the public interest by allowing the station to 
continue to operate its currently licensed facilities and to channel 
the monies it would

[[Page 19015]]

have spent building out channel 46 facilities into its current service.

DATES: This rule is effective May 7, 2014.
