The Commission has before it a petition for rulemaking filed by America 51, L.P. (America 51), the licensee of KPPX-TV, channel 51, Tolleson, Arizona, requesting the substitution of channel 31 for channel 51 at Tolleson. While the Commission instituted a freeze on the acceptance of full power television rulemaking petitions requesting channel substitutions in May 2011, it subsequently announced that it would lift the freeze to accept such petitions for rulemaking seeking to relocate from channel 51 pursuant to a voluntary relocation agreement with Lower 700 MHz A Block licensees. America 51 has entered into such a voluntary relocation agreement with T-Mobile and states that operation on channel 31 would remove any potential interference with authorized wireless operations in the Lower 700 MHZ A Block adjacent to channel 51 in the Phoenix, Arizona market, permitting those operations to expand to additional consumers sooner than would otherwise be possible.
