Channel 290A can be allotted to Victoria in compliance with the Commission’s minimum distance separation requirements with a site restriction of 8.1 kilometers (5.0 miles) north to avoid a short-spacing to the license site of FM Station KVIC, Channel 236C3, Victoria, Texas.

The proposed new site for Channel 291A at Refugio, 28–20–00 NL and 97– 23–45 WL, is in compliance with the Commission’s spacing requirements. This site is 12.3 kilometers (7.6 miles) west of the community, whereas the original site for Channel 291A at Refugio is 8.1 kilometers (5.0 miles) northwest of the community. The existing coordinates for the vacant Channel 291A at Refugio are 28–21–58 NL and 97–19–11 WL. Petitioner is required to provide the public interest benefits that could be derived from the site change of the vacant allotment at Refugio.
