ACTION:

Proposed rule; dismissal.

SUMMARY:

At the request of Apex Broadcasting, Inc., the Audio Division dismisses the petition for rule making proposing the reallotment of Channel 258C0 from Lake Charles, Louisiana to West Orange, Texas, and the modification of Station KBXG(FM)'s license accordingly. See 69 FR 60344, October 8, 2004. A showing of continuing interest is required before a channel will be allotted. It is the Commission's policy to refrain from making an allotment to a community absent an expression of interest. Therefore, we will grant the request to withdraw the instant proposal.
