FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 01-741; MM Docket No. 00-40; RM-9824]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Cobleskill and Saint Johnsville, NY

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Regent Licensee of 
Mansfield, Inc., reallots Channel 278B from Cobleskill, NY, to Saint 
Johnsville, NY, as its first local aural service, and modifies the 
license of Station WQBJ to specify St. Johnsville as its community of 
license. See 65 FR 16558, March 29, 2000. Channel 278B can be allotted 
to Saint Johnsville in compliance with the Commission's minimum 
distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 15.9 
kilometers (9.9 miles) east, at coordinates 42-58-21 NL; 74-29-30 WL, 
to accommodate petitioner's desired transmitter site. Although Saint 
Johnsville is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-
Canadian border, prior approval of this allotment was not required 
since no change in the station's transmitter site was proposed. 
However, the Canadian Government will be notified of the change in the 
station's community of license.

DATES: Effective May 7, 2001.
