SUMMARY: The Commission, at the request of Eagle Creek Broadcasting of

and 99-31-19 W. with a power of 200, HAAT of 262 meters and with a DTV 
service population of 140 thousand. Since the community of Laredo is

from the Mexican government has been obtained for this allotment. With 
this action, this proceeding is terminated.
