FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 03-2716, MM Docket No. 00-64, RM-9117]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Madison, Alabama and Tullahoma, TN

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule; denial.

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

SUMMARY: This document denies a pending petition for rulemaking 
proposing the reallotment of Channel 227C1 from Tullahoma, Tennessee to 
Madison, Alabama, and the modification of the Station WUSX(FM) license 
accordingly. The Audio Division had requested comment on a petition 
filed by Tennessee Valley Radio, Inc. proposing the reallotment of 
Channel 227C1. See 65 FR 20,935, April 19, 2000. The petitioner 
subsequently amended its proposal in reply comments, asking that 
Channel 227C1 be removed from Tullahoma, Tennessee, and that Channel 
227C2 be allotted at Madison, Alabama. In its reply comments, 
petitioner also revised the proposed reference coordinates for the new 
allotment at Madison, Alabama. The revised reference coordinates are 
34-50-20 North Latitude and 86-30-53 West Longitude. This document 
denies the petition, based upon the conclusion that the proposed 
reallotment and change of community of license would not serve the 
public interest, and terminates the proceeding.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554.
