In the Matter of Procedural Amendments to Commission Part 1 Competitive Bidding Rules

The Commission makes two procedural amendments to its competitive bidding rules. The Commission amends the rule specifying how to report potential violations of the prohibition on certain communications in order to reduce the risk that bidding-related information might be disseminated to auction applicants. The Commission also amends the rules specifying how quickly applicants must modify pending auction applications in order to enhance the usefulness of application information during the auction process and enable the Commission to respond promptly to changing circumstances if necessary.
