FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA No. 00-1208, MM Docket No. 97-116; RM-9050 & RM-9123]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Estero, Everglades City, LaBelle, 
and Key West, FL

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: In response to a petition filed by Keith L. Reising a Notice 
of Proposed Rule Making was issued proposing the allotment of Channel 
224A at Everglades City, Florida. See 62 FR 22900, April 28, 1997. In 
response to a counterproposal filed by InterMart Broadcasting West 
Coast, Inc., this document substitutes Channel 223C3 for Channel 223A 
at LaBelle, Florida, reallots Channel 223C3 to Estero, Florida, and 
modifies the license for Station WWWD to specify Estero as its 
community of license. The coordinates for Chanel 223C3 at Estero are 
26-21-50 and 81-46-00. To accommodate the channel at Estero, we have 
substituted Channel 224C1 for Channel 223C1 at Key West, Florida, and 
modified the license for Station WEOW accordingly. The coordinates for 
Channel 224C1 at Key West are 24-40-35 and 81-30-41. The proposal for 
Everglades City is dismissed as it has been determined that a first 
local service at Estero will serve a larger population than an 
allotment at Everglades City. With this action, this proceeding is 
terminated.

DATES: Effective July 17, 2000.
