## Abstract

The Audio Division, at the request of Petitioner Katherine Pyeatt grants her request for dismissal of her petition for rulemaking to allot Channel 290A at Victoria, Texas. In addition, the Audio Division grants a timely filed counterproposal filed by Voz de la Raza and allots Channel 290A at Austwell, Texas, as the community's first local service. Channel 290A can be allotted to Austwell in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements at 28- 23-40 North Latitude and 96-41-17 West Longitude with a site restriction of 15.1 kilometers (9.4 miles) east of Austwell. Mexican concurrence has been requested but not obtained. To accommodate this allotment, the coordinates of vacant Channel 291 at Refugio, Texas are changed to 28-19-44 North Latitude and 97-24-54 West Longitude with a site restriction of 14.1 kilometers (8.8 miles) west of Refugio. Mexican concurrence was previously obtained. A filing window for Channel 290A at Austwell will not be opened at this time. Instead, the issue of opening a filing window for this channel will be addressed by the Commission in a subsequent order.
