## Abstract

The Commission, at the request of Radio Elberton, Inc., reallots Channel 221A from Elberton, GA, to Lavonia, GA, as the community's first local aural service, and modifies Station WWRK-FM's license accordingly. Channel 221A can be allotted to Lavonia in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 12.5 kilometers (7.8 miles) west, at coordinates 34-27-26 NL; 83-14-27 WL, to accommodate petitioner's desired transmitter site. This action found that the public interest was better served by the provision of a first local aural service for the more populous community of Lavonia than by the mutually exclusive proposal of Waves of Mercy Productions, Inc., to provide a first local aural service on noncommercial educational FM Channel 220A at Pendergrass, GA (BPED-1990630MB). See 64 FR 70672, December 17, 1999.
