AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Proposed rule; dismissal.

SUMMARY:

This document dismisses the petition for rule making that underlies the Notice of Proposed Rule Making (“Notice”), 66 FR 35406 (July 5, 2001) in this proceeding because the petition is mutually exclusive with a proposal contained in a counterproposal in a prior-filed rulemaking proceeding, namely, Quanah, Texas, MM Docket No. 00-148, and was filed seven months after the deadline for filing counterproposals in the Quanah, Texas, proceeding. Therefore, the rulemaking petition is dismissed as untimely and the proceeding is terminated.
