79 Fed. Reg. 47380 (Aug. 13, 2014)

AGENCY:

Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

The Audio Division, at the request of SSR Communications, Inc., allots Channel 286A at Haynesville, Louisiana, as a “backfill” allotment to prevent the removal of the community's potential first local service that accommodates the “hybrid” application for Station KIMW, Channel 288A from Haynesville, Louisiana, to Heflin, Louisiana. A staff engineering analysis indicates that Channel 286A can be allotted to Haynesville consistent with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Commission's rules with a site restriction 4.6 kilometers (2.9 miles) south of the community. The reference coordinates are 33-00-12 NL and 93-08-19 WL.

DATES:

Effective September 8, 2014.

ADDRESSES:

Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, 445 Twelfth Street SW., Washington, DC 20554.
