[MM Docket No. 95-28; RM-8593, RM-8696]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Stamping Ground and Nicholasville, 
Kentucky

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Scott County Broadcasting, 
Inc., substitutes Channel 241A for Channel 256A at Stamping Ground, 
Kentucky, and modifies Station WKYI(FM)'s license accordingly (RM-
8593). See 60 FR 12725, March 8, 1995. As requested, we also dismiss 
the counterproposal filed by Mortenson Broadcasting Company of 
Kentucky, L.L.C., requesting the allotment of Channel 240A at 
Nicholasville, Kentucky, as the community's second local FM 
transmission service (RM-8696). Channel 241A can be allotted to 
Stamping Ground in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance 
separation requirements with a site restriction of 12.0 kilometers (7.5 
miles) east to avoid short-spacings to the licensed sites of Station 
WRSL-FM, Channel 242C3, Stanford, Kentucky, and Station WKID(FM), 
Channel 240A, Vevay, Indiana. The coordinates for Channel 241A at 
Stamping Ground are North Latitude 38-17-43 and West Longitude 84-33-
10. With this action, this proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective December 2, 1996.
