FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 02-1389; MM Docket No.01-133; RM-10143 & RM-10150]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Mason, TX

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Notice of Proposed Rule Making in this proceeding 
considered a petition filed by Charles Crawford requesting the 
allotment of Channel 249C3 at Mason, Texas and a petition filed by 
Katherine Pyeatt requesting the allotment of Channel 269C3 at Mason, 
Texas. See 66 FR 35768, July 9, 2001. In response to the proposal filed 
by Katherine Pyeatt, this document allots Channel 269C3 at Mason, 
Texas, at coordinates 30-45-00 and 99-10-41. There is a site 
restriction 5.7 kilometers (3.6 miles) east of the community. Mexican 
concurrence has been requested for this allotment but notification has 
not been received. Therefore, operation with the facilities specified 
for Mason herein is subject to modification, suspension, or termination 
without right to hearing, if found by the Commission to be necessary in 
order to conform to the 1992 USA-Mexico FM Broadcast Agreement or if 
specifically objected to by Mexico. Due to a lapse in the Commission's 
data base which failed to disclose a short spacing with a proposal to 
allot Channel 249C1 at Converse, Texas, in MM Docket 00-148, we will 
dismiss the proposal to allot Channel 249C3 at Mason, Texas. With this 
action, this proceeding is terminated. A filing window for Channel 
269C3 at Mason will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of 
opening this allotment for auction will be addressed by the Commission 
in a subsequent order.

DATES: Effective July 29, 2002.
