FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 95-163; RM-8715]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Wilson Creek, WA and Pendleton, OR

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Wilson Creek Communications, 
LLC, substitutes Channel 278C1 for Channel 277C3 at Wilson Creek, 
Washington, and modifies Station KVYF(FM)'s license accordingly. To 
accommodate the substitution, we also substitute Channel 279C1 for 
Channel 278C1 at Pendleton, Oregon, and modify Station KWHT(FM)'s 
license accordingly. See 60 FR 56034, November 6, 1995. Channel 278C1 
can be allotted at Wilson Creek in compliance with the Commission's 
minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 1.1 
kilometers (0.7 miles) south to avoid a short-spacing to the proposed 
allotment site for Channel 279B, Rock Creek, British Columbia. The 
coordinates for Channel 278C1 at Wilson Creek are North Latitude 47-24-
49 and West Longitude 119-07-15. Additionally, Channel 279C1 can be 
allotted to Pendleton, Oregon, in compliance with the Commission's 
minimum distance separation requirements at Station KWHT(FM)'s 
presently licensed site. See Supplementary Information, infra.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 12, 1996.

45-47-51 and West Longitude 118-22-17. Since the Wilson Creek is
