FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 96-168; RM-8836]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Weaverville, CA

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This document allots Channel 266A to Weaverville, California, 
in lieu of previously proposed Channel 299A, as that community's second 
local FM transmission service, in response to a petition for rule 
making filed on behalf of Terry L. Dunning. See 61 FR 43032, August 20, 
1996. The allotment of Channel 266A at Weaverville negates a conflict 
with applications filed for Channel 296C3 at Shasta Lake City, 
California, and is in conformity with the Commission's policy of 
attempting to resolve conflicts between rulemaking petitions and later-
filed FM applications. See Conflicts Between Applications and Petitions 
for Rulemaking to Amend the FM Table of Allotments, 58 FR 38536, July 
19, 1993. With this action, the proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective April 7, 1997. The window period for filing 
applications on Channel 266A at Weaverville, California, will open on 
April 7, 1997, and close on May 8, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nancy Joyner, Mass Media Bureau, (202)
