 ORDER  ON  RECONSIDERATION 
 Adopted:  November  28,  2001  Released:  December  5,  2001 
 By  the  Commission: 
 1.  Before  the  Commission  are  three  petitions,  two  seeking  reconsideration  of  a  consolidated 
 application  for  review  adopted  by  the  Commission  and  one  seeking  reconsideration  of  a  market 
 modification  order  adopted  by  the  Cable  Services  Bureau.  1 


 1  We  consolidate  consideration  of  these  petitions  because  they  all  involve  the  Miami  television  market;  the 
 legal  arguments  presented  by  the  parties  are  nearly  identical;  and  the  interests  of  administrative  efficiency  will  be 
 advanced  by  doing  so.

 WWTU(  TV)(  formerly  WWFD-  TV)  of  the  Cable  Services  Bureau’s  decision  in  Adelphia  Cable  Partners, 
 L.  P.,  d/  b/  a  Adelphia  Cable  Communications.  3 


 3.  WWTU(  TV)(  formerly  WWFD-  TV)  and  WEYS  request  that  the  Commission  reverse  its 
 decision  affirming  the  Cable  Services  Bureau’s  grant  of  the  cable  operators’  petitions  to  delete  various 
 communities  in  the  Miami,  Florida  ADI  for  must  carry  purposes  4  WWTU(  TV)  also  requests  that  the 
 Commission  reconsider  the  Bureau’s  grant  of  Adelphia  Cable  Partners’  petition  to  exclude  its  signal  from 
 the  Miami  DMA  for  must  carry  purposes.  5 


 4.  We  affirm  the  Order  adopted  by  the  Commission  in  the  above-  captioned  matters  and  the 
 Order  adopted  by  the  Cable  Services  Bureau  and  deny  the  associated  petitions.  The  facts,  applicable  law, 
 arguments  of  the  parties,  and  the  Bureau’s  detailed  analyses  were  fully  set  forth  in  the  underlying  decisions 
 and  the  Bureau’s  and  Commission’s  actions  herein.  Petitioners  herein  have  raised  no  new  arguments  or 
 facts  in  support  of  their  petitions,  as  required  under  Section  1.106(  b)(  3)  of  the  Commission’s  rules.  6 
 Further,  on  April  9,  2001,  the  United  States  Court  of  Appeals  for  the  Eleventh  Circuit  upheld  the

 that  decision  of  the  parties  which  addressed  nearly  identical  issues  to  those  raised  by  the  parties  in  this 
 proceeding,  and  the  failure  to  introduce  any  new  evidence  in  support  of  their  petitions,  we  affirm  the 
 Commission’s  decision  in  Continental  Cablevision  and  the  Bureau’s  decision  in  Adelphia  Cable  Partners. 


 5.  Accordingly,  IT  IS  ORDERED,  that  the  captioned  petitions  for  reconsideration  ARE
