Radio Broadcasting Services; Stratford

and Lincoln, NH

AGENCY: Federal Communications

Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the

request of Peter George, allots Channel

254A to Stratford, NH, as the

community’s first local aural service.

See 64 FR 14429, May 21, 1999.

Channel 254A can be allotted to

Stratford in compliance with the

Commission’s minimum distance

separation requirements with a site

restriction of 8.6 kilometers (5.3 miles)

north, at coordinates 44–43–54 NL; 71–

34–10 WL, to avoid a short-spacing to

vacant and unapplied-for Channel 256A

at Whitefield, NH. Canadian

concurrence in the allotment has been

obtained since Stratford is located

within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the

U.S.-Canadian border. The petition and

counterproposal filed by Barry P.

Lunderville to allot Channel 254A to

Lincoln, NH, is dismissed for failure to

comply with the subscription and

verification requirements of Section

1.52 of the Commission’s Rules. A filing

window for Channel 254A at Stratford

will not be opened at this time. Instead,

the issue of opening a filing window for

this channel will be addressed by the

Commission in a subsequent order.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This document allots Channel

63 FR 40253, July 28, 1998. The

coordinates for Channel 235A at Crystal

Falls are 46–09–05 and 88–22–01. There

is a site restriction 7.4 kilometers (4.6

response to a counterproposal filed by

allot Channel 244A at Republic,

Michigan, at coordinates 46–26–09 and

88–07–12. There is a site restriction 11.5

kilometers (7.2 miles) west of the

community. Canadian concurrence has

been received for the allotment of

Channel 244A at Republic. Although

Canadian concurrence has been

requested for the allotment of Channel

235A at Crystal Falls, notification has

not yet been received. Therefore,

operation with the facilities specified

modification, suspension, or

termination without right to hearing, if

found by the Commission to be

USA–Canada FM Broadcast Agreement

or if specifically objected to by Canada.

With this action, this proceeding is

terminated.
