On Friday, October 18th, the Media Bureau announced that the deadline for filing Form 318 applications for new low power FM (LPFM) stations will be extended from October 29, 2013 until November 14, 2013, 6:00 p.m. EST.

The LPFM window is currently open and completed Form 318 applications may now be submitted.  The Bureau recognized that potential applicants had no ability to access Commission information and tools or to discuss filing issues with staff during the recent government shutdown.

The expanded window period is designed to ensure that all applicants have sufficient time to complete and timely file applications.

The extended windows mean the FM Expansion Group is able to accept additional clients for this window.
