allots Channel 273A to Shawsville, Virginia, as the community's first 
local aural transmission service.  See 62 FR 15870, April 3, 1997. 
Channel 273A can be allotted to Shawsville in compliance with the

Appomattox, Virginia. The coordinates for Channel 273A at Shawsville 
are 37-09-47 NL and 80-16-48 WL. With this action, this proceeding is 
terminated.

applications for Channel 273A at Shawsville will open on September 22,
