                             ORDER


   Adopted:  May 11, 1999               Released:  May  11, 1999

By the Chief, Policy and Rules Branch, Commercial Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:

     1.  In this Order, we approve a settlement agreement between Shenandoah Mobile Telephone Company
("Shenandoah") and Virginia RSA 6 Cellular Limited Partnership ("Virginia").  We also grant Shenandoah's
Motion to Dismiss the Petition to Deny it previously filed against Virginia's above-captioned major
modification application. 

     2.  Virginia filed its major modification application on September 5, 1997.   Shenandoah filed its
petition to deny that application on October 20, 1997, alleging harmful interference to its adjacent cellular
system.  

     3.  The parties have reached a settlement agreement and Shenandoah filed a motion to dismiss its
petition on December 29, 1997.  Shenandoah states in its motion that Virginia filed a minor amendment to its
application on December 8, 1997, resolving Shenandoah's initial objections concerning potential harmful
interference.  The motion also contains certifications from both parties that neither they, nor their principals,
have reimbursed, or have agreed to reimburse, the other party for any litigation or other expenses.  After
review of the record, we find that the settlement complies with section 22.129 of the Commission's rules.  We
therefore, grant Shenandoah's motion to dismiss its petition.     
     
     4.  Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to section 4(i) of the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i) and sections 0.331 and 22.129 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331
and 22.129, that the Motion to Dismiss the Petition to Deny, filed on December 29, 1997, by Shenandoah
Mobile Telephone Company, IS GRANTED. 

     5.  IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that pursuant to section 154(i) of the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), and sections 0.331 and 22.129 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.331
and 22.129, that the settlement agreement between Shenandoah Mobile Telephone Company and Virginia RSA
6 Cellular Limited Partnership IS APPROVED.
