SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This is a synopsis of the consolidated Memorandum Opinion and Order in MB Docket No. 05-112 and MB Docket No. 05-151, adopted July 23, 2014, and released July 24, 2014 The full text of this decision is available for inspection and copying during normal business hours in the FCC Reference Information Center at Portals ll, CY-A257, 445 12th Street SW., Washington, DC 20554. The complete text of this decision may also be purchased from the Commission's copy contractor, Best Copying and Printing, Inc. 445 12th Street SW., Room CY-B402, Washington, DC 20554, telephone [phone] or www.BCPIWEB.com. Because the Commission is denying the Petition for Reconsideration, the Commission will not send a copy of this Memorandum Opinion and Order in a report to Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).

The Memorandum Opinion and Order denied the Joint Parties Petition for Reconsideration because no error was committed in the Report and Order by requiring the Joint Parties Counterproposal to protect a previously filed and cut-off application. See 72 FR 37673, July 1, 2007. Although the Joint Parties Counterproposal had been filed and dismissed in an earlier proceeding, the refilling of the Counterproposal does not revive that dismissed proposal or create cut-off rights with regard to proposals in the present proceeding. Likewise, the Memorandum Opinion and Order determined that no error was committed by processing a “cut-off” application and relying on the effective but non-final dismissal of the Joint Parties Counterproposal in the earlier proceeding. Finally, the Memorandum Opinion and Order concluded that an engineering solution submitted by the Joint Parties could not be considered because it was filed late.
