{"abstract":"This document amends the Commission's rules to designate marine VHF Channel 05A for port operations communications in Los Angeles and Long Beach, California ports. The effect of this rule is that it will foster reliable marine communications and increase safe vessel transit in the ports. The action will allow the LA/LB Pilots to manage vessel traffic in that area more efficiently and protect the marine environment by preventing collisions and groundings.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION","name":"Federal Communications Commission","id":161,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-communications-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/161","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-communications-commission"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2000/07/14/00-17665.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":0,"title":47},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":80,"title":47},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":90,"title":47}],"citation":"65 FR 43713","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"August 14, 2000.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["WT Docket No. 99-332","FCC 00-220"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"00-17665","effective_on":null,"end_page":43716,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2000/07/14/00-17665.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/07/14/00-17665/frequency-156250-mhz-available-for-port-operations-purposes-in-los-angeles-and-long-beach-ca-ports","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/00-17665?publication_date=2000-07-14","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2000-07-14/00-17665/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":4,"page_views":{"count":801,"last_updated":"2026-10-23 00:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-07-14/pdf/00-17665.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2000-07-14","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2000/07/14/00-17665.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2010-07-25T16:19:19Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":43713,"subtype":null,"title":"Frequency 156.250 MHz Available for Port Operations Purposes in Los Angeles and Long Beach, CA Ports","toc_doc":"Los Angeles and Long Beach, CA; 156.250 MHz frequency availability for port operations","toc_subject":"Radio services, special:","topics":["Administrative practice and procedure","Communications equipment","Marine safety"],"type":"Rule","volume":65}
