Abstract
In this document the Federal Communications Commission updates its rules to reflect the current license expiration dates for radio and television broadcast stations. The current version of the rule specifies license expiration dates from 2011 through 2014 for radio stations and 2012 through 2015 for television stations; these expiration dates are long out of date. Modifying the rule will enable broadcast station licensees to quickly peruse the rule to determine when their stations' licenses will expire. It will also accurately reflect the expiration dates listed both in the Commission's data base and on the broadcast stations' most recent license or renewal authorization.
