AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

In response to a proposal filed by Laramie Mountain Broadcasting, L.L.C., licensee of Station KIMX, Laramie, Wyoming, this document reallots Channel 288C2 from Laramie, Wyoming, to Timnath, Colorado, as that community's first local aural transmission service. Prior to submission of its rule making request, petitioner's authorization for Station KIMX(FM) was amended by grant of a one-step application to specify operation on Channel 288C2 at Laramie, Wyoming, instead of Channel 288C3. The FM Table of Allotments has not been amended previously to reflect the higher class substitution at Laramie. Additionally, the authorization for Station KIMX(FM) is modified, as requested. See 68 FR 1586 (2003), January 13, 2003. Coordinates used for Channel 288C2 at Timnath, Colorado, are 40-44-31 NL and 105-14-25 WL, representing a transmitter site 31.9 kilometers (19.8 miles) northwest of the community. The specified site location is within the protected areas of the Table Mountain Radio Receiving Zone, Boulder County, Colorado, and requires compliance with section 73.1030(b) of the Commission's rules. With this action, this docketed proceeding is terminated.

DATES:

Effective May 19, 2003.
