At the request of Good Life Broadcasting, Inc. (" Good Life"), licensee of station WTGL-TV, NTSC channel 52, Cocoa, Florida, the Commission has before it the Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 16 FCC Rcd 14495 (2001), requesting the substitution of DTV channel 53c for DTV channel 51. Good Life filed supporting comments stating it would apply for DTV channel 53c, if allotted. No other comments were received. 2. We believe the public interest would be served by substituting DTV channel 53c for DTV channel 51 since it would permit station WTGL- TV to co- locate its NTSC/ DTV facilities. DTV channel 53c can be allotted to Cocoa, Florida, as proposed, in compliance with the principle community coverage requirements of Section 73.625( a) at coordinates 28- 35- 12 N. and 81- 04- 58 W. In addition, we find that this channel is acceptable under the 2 percent criterion for de minimis impact that is applied in evaluating requests for modification of initial DTV allotments under Section 73.623( c)( 2) for Station WTGL- DT with the following specifications: DTV DTV power Antenna DTV Service State & City Channel (kW) HAAT (m) Pop.
