SUMMARY: This document allots Channel 233A to Albany, Vermont, in 
response to a petition filed by Lutterloh Community Broadcasters. See

are 44-45-26 and 72-20-09. There is a site restriction 4.6 kilometers

requested for the allotment of Channel 233A at Albany as

a specially negotiated short-spaced allotment, concurrence from the 
Canadian Government has not been received. Therefore, operation with 
the facilities specified for the allotment of Channel 233A at Albany 
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 USA-Canadian FM Broadcast Agreement or if 
specifically objected to by Canada. With this action, this proceeding 
is terminated. A filing window for Channel 233A at Albany 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 December 30, 2002.
