**Synopsis**

1. In the *Incentive Auction Report and Order* ( *See Expanding the Economic and Innovation Opportunities of Spectrum Through Incentive Auctions,* GN Docket No. 12-268, Report and Order, FCC 14-50 (rel. June 2, 2014)), the Commission adopted Partial Economic Areas (PEAs) as the service area for 600 MHz Band licenses, with boundaries proposed by a coalition of wireless service providers ( *See* Letters from C. Sean Spivey, Assistant General Counsel for CCA, Jill Canfield, Assistant General Counsel for NTCA, Caressa Bennet, General Counsel for RWA, and John A. Prendergast, Counsel to Blooston Rural Carriers (PEA Coalition), to Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, FCC, GN Docket No. 12-268 (filed Mar. 11, 2014 and Mar. 20, 2014)).

2. As directed by the Commission in the *Incentive Auction Report and Order,* this public notice provides a list of the  416 PEAs with their corresponding Economic Area and a list of counties showing the corresponding PEA. These lists are also available on the FCC's Web site: *http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/maps/areas/.* The lists contained in the appendices retain the boundaries proposed by the PEA Coalition, but renumber the 416 PEAs to reflect rankings by population in the U.S., followed by the U.S. Territories and the Gulf of Mexico. The PEAs are named according to the largest city within each PEA.

Federal Communications Commission.
