Puopolo filed a petition proposing the

commercial broadcast service. Channel
289A can be allotted to Steamboat
Springs in compliance with the

and 106–54–00 WL. The Audio Division

Texas, as the community’s sixth FM
commercial broadcast service. Channel
290A can be allotted to Victoria in
compliance with the Commission’s

a short-spacing to the license site of FM

To accommodate the proposed
Victoria allotment it is necessary to
relocate the reference coordinates for
vacant Channel 291A at Refugio, Texas.
The proposed new site for Channel
291A at Refugio, 28–20–00 NL and 97–
23–45 WL, is in compliance with the
Commission’s spacing requirements.
This site is 12.3 kilometers (7.6 miles)
west of the community, whereas the
original site for Channel 291A at
Refugio is 8.1 kilometers (5.0 miles)
northwest of the community. The
existing coordinates for the vacant
Channel 291A at Refugio are 28–21–58
NL and 97–19–11 WL. Petitioner is
required to provide the public interest
benefits that could be derived from the
site change of the vacant allotment at
Refugio. We further seek any additional
comments with regards to this proposal.
Both allotments are located within 320
kilometers (199 miles) of the U.S.-
Mexican border, Mexican concurrence
has been requested for these allotments.
Provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act of 1980 do not apply to
this proceeding. Members of the public
