ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This document allots Channel 296A to Pima, Arizona, as that 
community's first local aural transmission service, in response to a 
petition for rule making filed on behalf of R. A. Montierth 
Enterprises, L.L.C. See 62 FR 61721, November 19, 1997. Coordinates 
used for Channel 296A at Pima, Arizona, are 32-53-36 and 109-49-42. As 
Pima is located within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.-Mexico 
border, the Commission obtained concurrence of the Mexican government 
to the requested allotment of Channel 296A at that community. With this 
action, the proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective July 6, 1998. A filing window for Channel 296A at 
Pima, Arizona, will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of 
opening a filing window for this channel will be addressed by the 
Commission in a separate Order.
