What Is the Public Notice on digitalBURG About?

Updated

The Public Notice on digitalBURG is a formal announcement section used to publish official, legally required information connected to UCM student media. The specific notice shown on the site states that on December 06, 2023, the University of Central Missouri—as the applicant for a new Low Power FM (LPFM) station at 100.3 in Warrensburg, Missouri—filed an application with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a new LPFM Station Construction Permit. It also tells the public how to view that application and how to file comments or petitions through the FCC website.

What the notice actually says

The notice covers three key points:

  • Who filed: The University of Central Missouri, identified as the applicant.
  • What was filed: An application for a new LPFM Station Construction Permit for station 100.3.
  • Where: Warrensburg, Missouri.
  • When: December 06, 2023.
  • What the public can do: View the application or obtain information about filing comments and petitions via the FCC website.

Why this appears on digitalBURG

digitalBURG is the home of UCM student media, bringing together Muleskinner (news), CentralTV (video), and The Beat (radio). Because the LPFM application relates to a campus radio service, the Public Notice is published in that same media environment so students, staff, and the wider Warrensburg community can find it alongside the outlets it affects.

How to act on a Public Notice like this

If you want to review or respond to the application described:

  1. Go to the FCC website.
  2. Locate the application referenced in the notice (new LPFM station 100.3, Warrensburg, Missouri, filed December 06, 2023).
  3. Use the FCC's public comment or petition process if you wish to submit a comment or petition.

The notice itself does not provide a direct link or a deadline in the excerpt shown, so the FCC site is the authoritative place to confirm current status and any filing windows.

Key takeaway

The Public Notice is not editorial content or a news story—it is an official transparency item. On digitalBURG, it exists to give the public formal notice of a media-related regulatory filing and a clear path to the FCC for anyone who wants to view it or respond.
