2005, and released November 25, 2005. The full text of this Commission 
decision is available for inspection and copying during normal business 
hours in the FCC Information Center, Portals II, 445 12th Street, SW., 
Room CY-A257, Washington, DC 20554. The complete text of this decision

and Order in a report to be sent to Congress and the Government

    The Audio Division further, at the request of Dana J. Puopolo, 
allots Channel 255A at Mojave, California, as the community's third 
local FM service. Channel 255A can be allotted to Mojave, California, 
in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation 
requirements with a site restriction of 10.3 km (6.4 miles) northeast 
of Mojave. The coordinates for Channel 255A at Mojave, California, are 
35-06-07 North Latitude and 118-04-41 West Longitude. Concurrence in 
the allotment by the Government of Mexico is required because the 
proposed allotment is located within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the 
U.S.-Mexican border. Although Mexican concurrence has been requested, 
notification has not yet been received. If a construction permit for 
Channel 255A at Mojave, California, is granted prior to receipt of 
formal concurrence by the Mexican government, the authorization will 
include the following condition: ``Operation with the facilities 
specified herein for Mojave, California, is subject to modification, 
suspension, or termination without right to hearing, if found by the 
Commission to be necessary I order to conform to the Mexico-United 
States FM Broadcast Agreement, or if specifically objected to by the 
Government of Mexico.'' In order to accommodate that allotment, the 
Audio Division further, at the request of Dana J. Puopolo, substitutes 
Channel 247A for vacant Channel 255A at Trona, California. Channel 247A 
can be allotted to Trona, California, in compliance with the 
Commission's minimum distance separation requirements at city reference 
coordinates, without site restriction. The coordinates for Channel 247A 
at Trona, California, are 35-45-46 North Latitude and 117-22-19 West 
Longitude.
