The RBPA mandated that the Commission modify its rules to require LPFM stations to enact third-adjacent channel protection requirements and prohibit any applicant from obtaining an LPFM license if the applicant has engaged in the unlicensed operation of a station in violation of Section 301 of the Communications Act, otherwise known as "pirate radio".
Because this was a Congressional mandate, there was no speific Notice of Proposed Rulemaking related to this specific Report and Order.
