This document denies an Application for Review filed by Valley Public Television, Inc. (Valley) and affirms the staff's dismissal of Valley's rulemaking petition. See 58 FR 58833 (November 4, 1993); 60 FR 31258 (June 14, 1995). The petition sought to substitute Channel *41 for vacant Channel *25 (reserved for noncommercial use) at Ridgecrest, CA to eliminate a short-spacing between Valley's application for a new noncommercial station on Channel *39 at Bakersfield, CA and Channel *25 at Ridgecrest. The Commission concluded that the rulemaking petition was properly dismissed as moot because Valley had withdrawn its television application and because no more applications can be filed for Channel *39 at Bakersfield. With this action, the proceeding is terminated.
