REPORT AND ORDER
(Proceeding Terminated)
Adopted:  July 24, 2014 Released:  July 25, 2014 
By the Assistant Chief, Audio Division, Media Bureau:
1.  The Audio Division has before it a Notice of Proposed Rule Making,1 issued in response to a 
Petition for Rule Making filed by SSR Communications, Inc. (“Petitioner”), permittee of FM Station 
KIMW, Channel 288A, Haynesville, Louisiana, and the ”hybrid” application (the “Application”) filed by 
the Petitioner.2 Petitioner filed comments.  No counterproposals or other comments were received in 
response to the Notice.  For the reasons discussed below, we grant the Petition for Rule Making and the 
Application.
2. Background.  The Notice proposed to amend the FM Table of Allotments, Section 73.202(b) of 
the Commission’s Rules, by allotting Channel 286A at Haynesville, Louisiana, as a “backfill” allotment 
to prevent removal of Haynesville’s potential first local service.3 In its Application, Petitioner proposes 
the relocation of unbuilt FM Station KIMW, Channel 288A, from Haynesville, Louisiana, to Helfin, 
Louisiana, as the community’s first local service. Petitioner filed comments reiterating its interest in 
Channel 286A at Haynesville, Louisiana.  
3.  Discussion. We allot Channel 286A at Haynesville, Louisiana.  The allotment of Channel 286A at 
Haynesville would serve the public interest because it would maintain a first local service at the 
community.4 A staff engineering analysis indicates that Channel 286A can be allotted to Haynesville 
consistent with the minimum distance separation requirements of the Commission’s Rules with a site 
restriction 4.6 kilometers (2.9 miles) south of the community.  The reference coordinates are 33-00-12 NL 
and 93-08-19 WL.  
  
1 See Haynesville, Louisiana, Notice of Proposed Rule Making, 29 FCC Rcd 2035 (MB 2014) (“Notice”).
2 See File No. BMPH-20130913ACG.  
3 Petitioner filed an FCC Form 301 application, File No. BNPH-20130624AAP, for Channel 286A at Haynesville, 
and paid the necessary filing fees.
4 See Ten Sleep, Wyoming, Report and Order, 24 FCC Rcd 10138 (MB 2009)(allotting Channel 267A at Ten Sleep 
to maintain a potential first local service at Ten Sleep while accommodating the Petitioner's change of community of 
license).
