Television Broadcasting Services; Pueblo, CO

The Commission denies a petition for rule making filed jointly by the University of Southern Colorado (``USC''), licensee of noncommercial television Station KTSC(TV), Channel *8, Pueblo, Colorado, and Sangre De Cristo Communications, Inc. (``SCC''), licensee of commercial television Station KOAA-TV, Channel 5, Pueblo, Colorado. U.S.C. and SCC requested to exchange channels, and sought to include in the channel exchange a construction permit held by U.S.C. to relocate its transmitter to a short-spaced site. The Commission denies the petition because it would be contrary to FCC policy to grant SCC a minimum spacing waiver at the allotment rule making stage. U.S.C. and SCC stated that they were not interested in pursuing the Commission's alternative proposal, set forth in its Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 58 FR 38548 (July 19, 1993). The Commission also denies a petition filed by U.S.C. and SCC requesting that this rule making proceeding be consolidated with various application proceedings. With this action your proceeding is terminated.
