AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Proposed rule; denial of petition.

SUMMARY: The Commission denies the petition for rule making filedby Thunderbolt Broadcasting Company proposing the substitution of Channel 267C3 for Channel 269A at Martin, Tennessee. To accommodate the upgrade, petitioner also proposed the deletion of vacant Channel 267C3 at Tiptonville, Tennessee (RM-8876). See 61 FR 53698, October 15, 1996. Additionally, we deny petitioner's alternative proposal seeking the substitution of Channel 267C3 for Channel 269A at Martin, Tennessee; the substitution of Channel 247A for Channel 267C3 at Tiptonville; and the substitution of Channel 249C3 for Channel 248C3 at Trenton, Tennessee (RM-9015). At the request of JoeMyers Productions, Inc., we dismiss its proposal to allot Channel 267A at Princeton, Kentucky. With this action, this proceeding is terminated.
