Television Broadcasting Services; Geneseo, NY

The Commission requests comments on a petition filed by Renard Communications Corp. seeking the allotment of UHF TV Channel 39- to Geneseo, NY, as the community's first local television transmission service. Channel 39- can be allotted to Geneseo in compliance with the Commission's minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 21.4 kilometers (13.3 miles) east, at coordinates 42-46- 10 North Latitude and 77-33-21 West Longitude, to avoid a short-spacing to TV Channel 39+ at Kitchener, Ontario. Canadian concurrence is required since Geneseo is located within 400 kilometers (250 miles) of the U.S.-Canadian border. This proposed allotment is not affected by the Commission's freeze on new allotments in certain metropolitan areas.
