   Adopted:  October 22, 1999           Released:  October 22, 1999

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

     1.   This Order grants the petition for reconsideration (Petition), filed by USA Mobile
Communications, Inc. II (USA Mobile) on April 25, 1996, of an action taken by the Commercial
Wireless Division's Narrowband Branch (Branch).

     2.   On March 27, 1996, the Branch terminated USA Mobile's construction permit pursuant
to section 22.144 of the Commission's rules on the ground that USA Mobile failed to notify the Branch
of completion of modifications to its facility.  USA Mobile sought reconsideration of the termination
and provided information that it had properly notified the Branch of the completion of modifications.  In
response to the Petition, the Branch determined that USA Mobile had timely filed its FCC Form 489
notification, reinstated the construction permit and, on June 18, 1996, licensed the station.  The Petition,
however, was not formally granted.  Because the Petition technically remains pending, we formally grant
the Petition by this Order. 

     3.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to authority delegated by sections 4(i) and
405 of the Communications Act, as amended, 47 U.S.C  154(i), 405, and by sections 0.331 and 1.106
of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R  0.331, 1.106, the petition for reconsideration filed by USA
Mobile Communications, Inc. II on April 25, 1996 IS GRANTED.
