Text of order

In the Third Report and Order discussed above, the Commission established a going-forward limit of ten pending short-form applications per applicant from FM translator Auction No. 83, and directed the Bureau to resume processing the applications of those applicants in compliance with this numerical cap.

Petitions for reconsideration opposing the cap were filed by CSN International, National Religious Broadcasters, Positive Alternative Radio, Inc., and Educational Media Foundation et. al. In light of our adoption of the market-specific translator application dismissal process described in [the] Fourth Report and Order, we dismiss them as moot.
