04-3968. Radio Broadcasting Services; Big Sur, Chualar, and Dos Palos, CA

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

This document grants a counterproposal to allot Channel 240A to Big Sur, California, as its first local aural service, at reference coordinates 36-15-28 and 121-49-28. The document also denies a rulemaking petition to reallot and change the community of license for Station KSKD(FM), Channel 240A, from Dos Palos to Chualar, California, because this would not result in a preferential arrangement of allotments. See 66 FR 51361, published October 9, 2001.

DATES:

Effective March 22, 2004.
