[DA 00-574; MM Docket No. 99-181; RM-9584; RM-9700]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Merced and North Fork, CA

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: In response to a proposal filed on behalf of San Joaquin Radio 
Company, LLC, licensee of Station KAJZ(FM), Merced, California, the 
Commission substitutes Channel 300B1 for Channel 299A at Merced and 
reallots Channel 300B1 to North Fork, California, as that community's 
first local aural transmission service, and modifies the license for 
Station KAJZ(FM) accordingly. (A competing proposal filed on behalf of 
Mountain West Broadcasting to allot Channel 300A to Easton, California, 
was denied.) See 64 FR 30291, June 7, 1999. Coordinates used for 
Channel 300B1 at North Fork are 37-14-39 NL and 119-33-58 WL.
    Additionally, this document makes an editorial amendment to 47 CFR 
Part 73, Radio Broadcast Services, Sec. 73.202(b), Table of FM 
Allotments, to include Channel 268B at Merced, California. Although 
Channel 268B was allotted to Merced in the original Table of 
Allotments, and is licensed at that community, it does not appear in 
Sec. 73.202(b). With this action, the proceeding is terminated.

DATES: Effective May 1, 2000.
