Anu Dixit, Ph.D., a National Institutes of Health fellow at Washington University, has identified the allergenic proteins of a little- known but major allergen that, unlike most allergens we're familiar with, is a potential health threat year-round. The allergen, Epicoccum nigrum (EN), is a fungus, not pollen from a flowering plant, and it can be found everywhere — from clothes, to drapes and air-conditioning ducts indoors, to leaves, plants, rocks and soil outdoors. Allergists have known for years that a limited range of fungi (interchange- ably referred to as molds) have allergenic properties.

The study is in compliance with the reservation methodology set forth in NCE Second Report and Order, 18 FCC Rcd 6691 (2003) at 6703-06, and demonstrates that all the necessary criteria for reservation of this channel for NCE use are met. The engineering study provides a preclusion analysis which demonstrates that no other FM frequency in the reserve band is available for use at the vacant FM allocation coordinates, or within the allotment’s predicted 1 mV/m contour. The study also demonstrates that the proposed frequency will provide a first or a second NCE service to the prescribed minimum population in the community and the service area. If the proposed frequency is reserved for NCE use, Starboard declares that it intends to apply for the requested channel when opportunity to do so permits.
