FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 73

[DA 09-1532; MB Docket No. 08-153; RM-11477]


Television Broadcasting Services; Bangor, ME

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Dismissal.

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

SUMMARY: The Commission dismisses the pending rulemaking petition filed 
by Community Broadcasting Service (``Community Broadcasting''), the 
licensee of WABI-DT, digital channel 19, Bangor, Maine, which requests 
the substitution of channel 12 for digital channel 19 at Bangor. 
Community Broadcasting's proposed channel substitution requires 
coordination and concurrence with the Canadian government because the 
proposed facility is located within the Canadian coordination zone. The 
Canadian government has indicated that Community Broadcasting's 
proposed channel substitution is not acceptable. Therefore, the 
Commission dismisses Community Broadcasting's petition for rulemaking.
