FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA No. 00-1519; MM Docket No. 99-221; RM-9639]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Fortine, MT

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule; denial.

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

SUMMARY: This document denies a petition for rule making filed by the 
Battani Corporation requesting the allotment of Channel 232C3 at 
Fortine, Montana. See 64 FR 34752, June 29, 1999. Based on the 
information submitted by the Battani Corporation, we believe it has 
failed to establish that Fortine qualifies as a community for allotment 
purposes and therefore it would not serve the public interest to allot 
a channel to Fortine.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kathleen Scheuerle, Mass Media Bureau, 
(202) 418-2180.
