[DA 01-2000; MM Docket No. 00-166; RM-9951; RM-10015; RM-10016]

 
Radio Broadcasting Services; Wickenburg, Bagdad and Aguila, AZ

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: This document grants a Petition for Reconsideration of the 
Report and Order in this proceeding, 66 FR 21680, May 1, 2001, as 
requested by Circle S Broadcasting Co., Inc., licensee of Station KSWG 
(FM), Channel 231C3, Wickenburg, Arizona, to the extent it substitutes 
Channel 242C3 for Channel 231C3 and modifies its license accordingly, 
rather than the allotment of Channel 242C3 at Wickenburg as that 
community's third local FM transmission service. The substitution and 
modification at Wickenburg is preferred over the allotment of Channel 
242C3 for general application based upon the original proponent's 
withdrawal of interest, and the failure of any other party to express 
an interest therein. Coordinates used for Channel 242C3 at Wickenburg 
remain as specified in the Report and Order. Allotments made in the 
context of this proceeding at Bagdad and Aguila, Arizona, remain 
unchanged. Additionally, as Wickenburg is located

[[Page 46400]]

within 320 kilometers (199 miles) of the US-Mexico border, concurrence 
of the Mexican government to this allotment was requested, but has not 
been received. Therefore, the allotment of Channel 242C3 at Wickenburg 
is conditioned on concurrence of the Mexican government in accordance 
with the 1992 USA-Mexico M Broadcast Agreement.

DATES: Effective October 9, 2001.
