                     ORDER OF MODIFICATION
                                
                                
   Adopted:  September 17, 1999         Released:  September 17, 1999

By Chief, Public Safety and Private Wireless Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau:

     1.  On September 18, 1998, the Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch incorrectly granted
applications to modify the licenses for Station WEE663, Humbolt, Nebraska and Station WBH481,
Ashland, Nebraska.  The modification applications, which sought to delete a 2 GHz frequency from each
of the licenses at issue, were filed on July 20, 1998, by the Omaha Public Power District (OPPD).  The
station licenses, however, had previously been assigned in their entirety by OPPD to Hybrid Path
Communications, LLC (Hybrid Path) on April 1, 1998.  Consequently, OPPD had no standing to request
modification of the licenses and the modification applications should not have been granted.  Pursuant to
Section 316 of the Communications Act, as amended, we are notifying Hybrid Path and OPPD, that, upon
the effective date set forth in Paragraph 3 below, we will modify the licenses to restore the paths incorrectly
deleted. 

     2.  In accordance with Section 1.87(a) of the Commission's Rules, this Order of Modification,
will not become final until the licensee has received notice of our action and an opportunity to protest the
modification.  Accordingly, the licensee, Hybrid Path, and any other interested licensee or permittee has
thirty days from the release date of this Order to protest the proposed license modification.  To protest the
modification, an interested party must, within thirty days of the release of this Order, submit a written
statement with sufficient evidence to show that the modification would not be in the public interest.  The
protest must be filed with the Federal Communications Commission, Office of the Secretary, 445 Twelfth
Street, S.W., Room TW-A325, Washington, D.C. 20554.  If no protest is timely filed, the right to file a
protest will be deemed waived and the licensee will be deemed to have consented to the modification.

     3.  IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 4(i) and 316 of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), 316, and Section 1.87 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R.  1.87, that
the Order of Modification shall become effective on October 18, 1999 if no party protests the Order of
Modification.  

     4.  IT IS FURTHER ORDERED pursuant to Section 4(i) Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i), and Section 1.87(i) of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R.  1.87(i) that the
Order of Modification shall be served by certified mail, return receipt requested upon Hybrid Path
Communications, LLC.
