AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Dismissal.

SUMMARY: The Commission dismisses the pending rulemaking petition filed 
by Twin Cities Public Television, Inc. (``Twin Cities''), the licensee 
of noncommercial educational station KTCI-TV, analog channel *17 and 
KTCI-DT, pre-transition digital channel *16, and permittee of post-
transition digital channel *26, St. Paul, Minnesota, to substitute 
digital channel *38 for its assigned post-transition digital channel 
*26. Duluth-Superior Area Educational Television Corporation (``Duluth-
Superior''), the licensee of noncommercial educational station WDSE-TV/
DT, Duluth, Minnesota, filed comments and a counterproposal in the 
proceeding. Twin Cities and Duluth-Superior subsequently came to a 
Commission approved agreement by which Duluth-Superior agreed to 
withdraw its counterproposal and Twin Cities agreed to request a 
different post-transition digital channel substitution.
