ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Audio Division, at the request of Sierra H Broadcasting, 
Inc., allots FM Channel 259A in lieu of vacant FM Channel 267A at Ash 
Fork, Arizona, and allots FM Channel 228C3 in lieu of vacant FM Channel 
268C3 at Paulden, Arizona. Channel 259A can be allotted at Ash Fork, 
Arizona, in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance 
separation requirements with a site restriction of 7.4 km (4.6 miles) 
northwest of Ash Fork at the following reference coordinates: 35-16-13 
North Latitude and 112-32-31 West Longitude. Channel 228C3 can be 
allotted at Paulden, Arizona, in compliance with the Commission's 
minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 7.7 
km (4.8 miles) west of Paulden at the following reference coordinates: 
34-52-16 North Latitude and 112-33-00 West Longitude. Concurrence in 
the Paulden 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 been received. If a construction permit 
for Channel 228C3 at Paulden, Arizona, 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 Paulden, Arizona, 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 Mexico-United 
States FM Broadcast Agreement, or if specifically objected to by the 
Government of Mexico.''
