FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 04-3614; MB Docket No. 04-168, RM-10832]


Radio Broadcasting Services; Waitsburg, Washington

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Audio Division, at the request of Waitsburg Broadcasting 
Company, allots Channel 272A to Waitsburg, Washington, as its first 
local aural transmission service. See 69 FR 29254, May 21, 2004. 
Channel 272A can be allotted to Waitsburg, consistent with the minimum 
distance separation requirements of the Commission's Rules with a site 
restriction 12.3 kilometers (7.6 miles) east of the community at 
coordinates 46-17-41 NL and 117-59-47 WL. Although concurrence has been 
requested for Channel 272A at Waitsburg, notification has not been 
received. If a construction permit is granted prior to the receipt of 
formal concurrence in the allotment by the Canadian government, the 
construction permit will include the following condition: ``Operation 
with the facilities specified for Waitsburg 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 
U.S.-Canadian FM Broadcast Agreement.'' A filing window for Channel 
272A at Waitsburg, Washington, will not be opened at this time. 
Instead, the issue of opening a filing window for this channel will be 
addressed by the Commission in a subsequent order.

DATES: Effective January 6, 2005.

Washington, DC. 20554.
