Stations assigned to new channels as part of the post-Incentive Auction repacking process are required to file Post-Auction Transition Progress Reports using FCC Form 2100, Schedule 387, electronically in LMS at various times during the transition process. Reports must be filed quarterly (Quarterly Report) no later than January 10, April 10, July 10, and October 10 each year. Reports must also be filed 10 weeks before a station’s phase completion date (10-Week Report). The 10-Week Report filing deadline for stations in Phases 3, 5, and 8 are April 12, 2019, June 28, 2019, and January 3, 2020, respectively. As a practical matter, the close proximity of the Quarterly Report and 10-Week Report deadlines during Phases 3, 5, and 8 renders them duplicative. The Media Bureau therefore waived the filing of Quarterly Reports for stations whose phase completion date falls within those three phases. Specifically, we waive the filing of the Quarterly Report due on April 10, 2019, for Phase 3 stations, the Quarterly Report due on July 10, 2019, for Phase 5 stations, and the Quarterly Report due on January 10, 2020, for Phase 8 stations. Such stations will continue to be required to file their 10-Week Reports on the applicable due
