AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission requests comment on four petitions for 
rulemaking. Three filed by Charles Crawford propose the allotments of 
Channel 282A at Goliad, Texas, Channel 296C3 at Paducah, Texas, and 
Channel 298A at Woodson, Texas. Channel 282A can be allotted at Goliad 
in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation 
requirements, with respect to domestic allotments, 4.6 kilometers (2.9 
miles) north of the community at coordinates 28-42-35 NL and 97-23-02 
WL. Channel 296C3 can be allotted at Paducah in compliance with the 
Commission's minimum distance separation requirements, with respect to 
domestic allotments, 0.4 kilometers (0.3 miles) northwest of the 
community, at coordinates 34-00-59 NL and 100-18-35 WL. Channel 298A 
can be allotted at Woodson in compliance with the Commission's minimum 
distance separation requirements, with respect to domestic allotments, 
at a site 1.9 kilometers (1.2 miles) southwest of the community at 
coordinates 33-00-32 NL and 99-04-23 WL. The fourth, filed by Paulden 
Broadcasting, proposes the allotment of Channel 263C3 at Paulden, 
Arizona. Channel 263C3 can be allotted at Paulden in compliance with 
the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements, with respect 
to domestic allotments without a site restriction at coordinates 34-53-
00 NL and 112-28-00 WL. Since the Goliad and Paulden proposals are 
within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.-Mexico border, 
concurrence of the Mexican government to those proposed allotments will 
be required.
