                       REPORT AND ORDER  
                    (Proceeding Terminated)

   Adopted:  August 5, 1998             
     Released:  August 14, 1998         

 By the Chief, Allocations Branch:
 
 
 1.  This Order amends Section 73.202(b) of the Commission's Rules, the Table of FM
 Allotments, to specify the classes of channels allotted to various communities.  These amendments
 are necessary to reflect changes that have been authorized in response to applications filed by
 licensees and permittees operating on these channels.  This action is taken pursuant to Revision of
 Section 73.3573(a)(1) of the Commission's Rules concerning the Lower Classification of an FM
 Allotment, 4 FCC Rcd 2413 (1989), and the Amendment of the Commission's Rules to Permit FM
 Channel and Class Modifications [Upgrades] by Application, 8 FCC Rcd 4735 (1993).  The
 attached Appendix shows the Table, as amended, for those communities.
 
 2.  This action constitutes an editorial change in the Table of Allotments.  Therefore, we find
 for good cause that a public notice and comment proceeding is unnecessary.  See 5 U.S.C.
 553(b)(A) and (B).
