Abstract
The Commission, at the request of Keymarket of NEPA, Inc., allots Channel 290A at Pocono Pines, Pennsylvania, as the community's first local aural transmission service (RM-8891). We also deny the proposal filed by Victor A. Michael, Jr., requesting the allotment of Channel 290A at Bear Creek, PA (RM-8808). See 61 FR 43033, August 20, 1996. Channel 290A can be allotted to Pocono Pines in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 13.1 kilometers (8.2 miles) northwest to avoid short- spacings to the licensed and construction permit sites of Station WNWK(FM), Channel 290B1, Newark, New Jersey. The coordinates for Channel 290A Pocono Pines are North Latitude 41-09-17 and West Longitude 75-35-52. Since Pocono Pines is located within 320 kilometers (200 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border, concurrence of the Canadian government has been obtained. With this action, this proceeding is terminated.
