E8-21739. Radio Broadcasting Services; Beeville, Christine, George West, and Tilden, TX

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

The Audio Division grants a Petition for Rule Making issued at the request of Katherine Pyeatt, proposing the allotment of Channel 245C3 at Christine, Texas, as its first local aural transmission service. The reference coordinates for Channel 245C3 at Christine are 28-40-00 NL and 98-30-15 WL, located 13.6 kilometers (8.4 miles) south of Christine. Additionally, a counterproposal filed by Linda Crawford was dismissed, requesting the allotments of Channel 245A at Christine, Texas, and Channel 250A at Tilden, Texas, as first local aural transmission services. To accommodate the proposed Tilden allotment, the counterproposal requests the substitution of Channel 296A for vacant Channel 250A at George West, Texas, which in turn requires the substitution of Channel 246A for Channel 296A at Beeville, Texas, and modification of the Station KRXB(FM) license. We hereby change the effective date of this final rule in compliance with 47 CFR 1.427 because the final rule was never published in the Federal Register. Accordingly, the Report and Order is made effective 30 days from the time the final rule for the above caption proceeding is published in the Federal Register.

DATES:

Effective October 20, 2008.
