FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73
[MM Docket No. 98-52; RM-9239]
Radio Broadcasting Services; Hague, NY, Addison, VT
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of John Anthony Bulmer,
substitutes Channel 229C3 for Channel 229A, reallots Channel 229C3 from
Hague, NY, to Addison, VT, as the community's first local aural
service, and modifies Station WWFY's construction permit accordingly.
See 63 FR 20562, April 27, 1998. Channel 229C3 can be allotted to
Addison, Vermont, in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance
separation requirements, with respect to all domestic allotments, with
a site restriction of 14.2 kilometers (8.8 miles) west, at coordinates
44-02-30 North Latitude; 73-28-00 West Longitude, to accommodate
petitioner's desired transmitter site. Addison is located within 320
kilometers of the U.S.-Canadian border and the allotment will result in
a short-spacing to Station CBM-FM, Channel 228C1, Montreal, Quebec,
Canada. Therefore, the allotment has been concurred in by the Canadian
Government as a specially-negotiated short-spaced allotment. With this
action, this proceeding is terminated.
EFFECTIVE DATE: December 14, 1998.
