SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Sela Valley Broadcasting, 
allots Channel 257A at Naches, Washington, as the community's second 
local FM transmission service. See 62 FR 3653, January 24, 1997. 
Channel 257A can be allotted at Naches in compliance with the 
Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site 
restriction of 12.4 kilometers (7.7 miles) northwest to avoid short-
spacings to the licensed sites of Station KAYO-FM, Channel 257C1,

Washington. The coordinates for Channel 257A at Naches are North 
Latitude 46-49-09 and West Longitude 120-47-55. Since Naches is located 
within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border, 
concurrence of the Canadian government has been obtained. With this 
action, this proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective July 14, 1997. The window period for filing 
applications for Channel 257A at Naches, Washington, will open on July 
14, 1997, and close on August 14, 1997.
