Radio Broadcasting Services; Magdalena, NM

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Mountain West Broadcasting, 
allots Channel 240C2 to Magdalena, NM, as the community's first local 
aural service. See 64 FR 18872, April 16, 1999. Channel 240C2 can be 
allotted to Magdalena in compliance with the Commission's mileage 
separation requirements without the imposition of a site restriction, 
at coordinates 34-07-00 NL; 107-14-36 WL. Mexican concurrence in the 
allotment has been received since Magdalena is located within 320 
kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.-Mexican border. With this action, 
this proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective November 1, 1999. A filing window for Channel 240C2 at 
Magdalena 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.
