Proposed rule; dismissal.

SUMMARY:

M. Kent Frandsen requested the downgrade of Channel 256C1 to Channel 256C3 at Fort Bridger, Wyoming, the reallotment of Channel 256C3 from Fort Bridger to Hyrum, Utah, and the modification of Station KNYN(FM)'s construction permit accordingly. See 64 FR 36323, July 6, 1999. On June 16, 2000, petitioner filed a request for dismissal. 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 dismiss the instant petition.
