[MM Docket No. 98-225; RM-9417]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Medina, ND

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of High Plains Broadcasting, 
Inc., allots Channel 222C to Medina, ND, as the community's first local 
aural service. See 63 FR 69608, December 17, 1998. Channel 222C can be 
allotted to Medina in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance 
separation requirements without a site restriction, at coordinates 46-
53-36 NL; 99-17-54 WL. Canadian concurrence in the allotment has been 
obtained since Medina is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of 
the U.S.-Canadian border. With this action, this proceeding is 
terminated.

DATES: Effective August 9, 1999. A filing window for Channel 222C at 
Medina 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 
subsequent order.
