AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: Houston Christian Broadcasters, Inc. (``HCBI'') proposed the 
substitution of Channel 223C3 for Channel 223A at Wake Village, and 
modification of the license for Station KHTA and substitution of 
Channel 231C3 for Channel 223A at Arcadia, LA. See 64 FR 26720, May 17, 
1999. On June 28, 2000, HCBI withdrew its interest in Channel 223C3 at 
Wake Village and Channel 231C3 at Arcadia. Therefore, the petition has 
been dismissed, as requested, with no action taken with regard to 
HCBI's proposed substitutions at Wake Village and Arcadia. In response 
to counterproposals filed for Gibsland, LA, Hodge, LA and expressions 
of interest for the use of Channel 231C3 at Arcadia, LA, we have

compared the proposals and allotted Channel 231C2 to Hodge, LA as a 
first local service. The coordinates for Channel 231C2 at Hodge, LA are 
32-08-20 and 92-59-04. A filing window for Channel 231C2 at Hodge 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.

DATES: Effective September 11, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Washington, D.C. 20554.
