FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[MM Docket No. 97-189; RM-9135]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Nassawadox, VA

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This document dismisses a petition for rule making filed by 
Ken Robol proposing the allotment of Channel 252A at Nassawadox, 
Virginia, as the community's first local aural transmission service. 
See 62 FR 46707, August 4, 1997. Petitioner failed to file comments 
stating his intention to apply for Channel 252A if allotted. Therefore, 
in keeping with the Commission's policy to refrain from allotting a 
channel to a community absent an expression of interest, we have 
dismissed the petition for Nassawadox. With this action, this 
proceeding is terminated.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 6, 1998.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Pam Blumenthal, Mass Media Bureau, 
(202) 418-2180.
