Federal Communications Commission

CFR Citation: 47 CFR Part 73

NOTICE: RULES

ACTION: Radio stations; table of assignments:

DOCUMENT ACTION: Final rule; petitions for reconsideration.

SUBJECT CATEGORY:

FM Broadcasting Services; Northwye, Cuba, Waynesville, Lake Ozark, and Eldon, Missouri; Brookline, Missouri; Ava, Branson, and Mountain Grove, Missouri; Columbia, Bourbon, Leasburg, Gerald, Dixon, and Cuba, Missouri

DOCUMENT SUMMARY:

The staff previously dismissed petitions for reconsideration in each of the above four dockets, filed by Lake Broadcasting, Inc., 66 FR 21681, published May 1, 2001; 66 FR 22450 and 66 FR 22449, published May 4, 2001. Lake filed petitions for reconsideration, arguing that these dismissals were premature. The staff disagreed, concluding that Lake's proposals to upgrade two of its stations could not be granted because those authorizations had been revoked and those decisions have become final. Further, the Commission has ordered Lake and the other formerly licensed stations controlled by Michael Rice to cease broadcast operations no later than 11:59 p.m. on October 3, 2001. See Memorandum Opinion and Order, FCC 01300, released October 3, 2001. With this action, the proceeding is terminated.

SUMMARY:

Missouri,
