In the Matter of
Amendment of Rule 73.202(b)Table of Allotments,FM Broadcast stations(Mashpee, Massachusetts)
TO: Chief, Allocation Branch
PETITION FOR RULEMAKING
1. Pursuant to Rules 1.401 and 1.420, J.J. Taylor Companies,
Inc. ("Taylor") , petitions the Commission (1) to amend the FM Table
of Allotments by reallotting channel 266A from Falmouth,
Massachusetts, to Mashpee, Massachusetts, and (2) to modify the
authorization of WFAL(FM), Falmouth, Massachusetts, to specify
Mashpee, Massachusetts, as its new community of license.
2. Technical considerations. WFAL is presently licensed to
operate on channel 266A at Falmouth, Massachusetts. The station's
present facilities (3.7 KW ERP at 77 m HAAT) are substantially less
than the maximum facilities for Class A FM stations.' They are
limited by the need to protect FM stations WGIR-FM, Manchester, New
Hampshire, WWBB, Providence, Rhode Island and WZLX, Boston,
Massachusetts. Each of these stations is located West of station
WFAL.
3. Taylor proposes to move WFAL's community of license East
'Class A FM stations can be authorized with 6 KW effectiveradiated power from an antenna height above average terrain of upto 100 meters. See 47 C.F.R. § 73.211(b) (1). O. ~Lt
No. of C~ies rec'd~ .1List ABCOEf/l f-1 6
from Falmouth to Mashpee, Massachusetts. A considerable area
exists from which WFAL can serve Mashpee with full Class A FM
facilities. 2 Taylor proposes that the Channel 266A, Mashpee,
Massachusetts allotment be made at coordinates 41 degrees, 34
minutes, 45 seconds North Latitude and 70 degrees, 30 minutes, 45
seconds West Longitude. This site will allow the requisite city
grade service to Mashpee. 3
4. Section 307 (b) considerations. Mashpee is an incorporated
town located on Cape Cod, Massachusetts in Barnstable County on
the South-east coast of the Cape approximately 10 miles East of
Falmouth. Between 1980 and 1990 Mashpee's population increased
more than 100 percent, as reported by the united States Census
Bureau. The following table shows how the population of Mashpee
has grown: 4
Year Mashpee population
1980 3,700
1982 3,971
1984 4,691
1986 5,940
1988 7,900

1990 7,884
Both high and low growth population projections predict significant
future increases in Mashpee's population. S
Year Low Growth High Growth
1994 9302 9351
1996 10201 10508
1998 11095 11735
2000 11948 12968
5. Mashpee has also experienced a growth in Median Household
Income as reported by the Cape Cod Commission, using 1979 and 1989
data from the U.S. Census Bureau. In 1979, the median household
income was $16,179, while in 1989 the median income was $32,524. 6
6. Mashpee is governed by a Board of Selectmen and an
Executive Secretary which are elected by the Town. The fiscal
responsibilities and duties of these officials are determined by
town meeting. The Board of Selectmen oversee the various
departments and committees that provide such town services as
maintaining roads, protecting wetlands and waterways, and
monitoring waste disposal and recycling efforts.?

6see Median Household Income in Barnstable County. 1979-89,compiled by Cape Cod Commission attached as Exhibit B.
7See Mashpee 1992 Annual Report attached as Exhibit C.

7. Mashpee has two public schools, a pUblic library, an
Archives building housing historic state documents, an Indian
museum and four churches. The town has its own u.s. Post Office,
and its exclusive ZIP code is 02649. civic and fraternal
organizations in Mashpee include the Mashpee Chamber of Commerce,
Lions Club, Kiwanis Club, New Seabury Men's Club, Women's Club New
Seabury, and the Upper Cape Business and Professional Women
organization. 8
8. The proposed allotment would provide Mashpee its first
local broadcast service.
9. Falmouth, WFAL-FM's present community of license, is also
located in Barnstable County ten miles west of Mashpee. In
addition to WFAL-FM, Falmouth is served by WCIB-FM, a class B FM
station operating with 50 KW effective radiated power. This local
FM transmission service will continue to serve Falmouth after
channel 266A is allotted to Mashpee.
10. Reallotment of channel 266A as proposed will foster the
fair, efficient and equitable distribution of broadcast service
mandated by Section 307(b) of the Communications Act of 1934 by
providing Mashpee its first local transmission service.
Additionally, a Mashpee allotment for Channel 266A will permit
WFAL-FM to maximize the Class A station's facilities at a site
unfettered by the interference protection limitations of WFAL-FM's
present site.
8See Mashpee: just minutes away, pamphlet published by theMashpee Chamber of Commerce attached as Exhibit B.
4
11. Taylor requests consideration of this proposal under the
provisions of Rule 1.420(i), because the amended allotment will be
mutually exclusive with the licensee's present co-channel
allotment. This proposal qualifies for consideration without
sUbjecting WFAL-FM to competing applications for the amended
allotment.
12. In view of the matters discussed above, Taylor requests
grant of this petition and issuance of an appropriate notice of
proposed rule making and notice to show cause.
Respectfully submitted,

ENGINEERING STATEMENT
An Area-to-Locate study was conducted to detennine the technical feasibility ofserving the city of Mashpee, Massachusetts on channel 266A. Attached with Exhibit A isthe result of an FM spacing study based current rule spacings for WFAL-FM, Channel266A, Falmouth, Massachusetts. The proposed reference coordinates comply with theCommission's short spacing criteria, and provide for a 70 dBu contour that fullyencompasses the large geographical boundaries of Mashpee.
Attached as Exhibit B are two National Oceanic and Atmospheric AdministrationSectional Aeronautical Charts. It can be readily seen that both the proposed referencecoordinates for Mashpee and the present WFAL-FM transmitting facility provide for 70dBu City-Grade signals over nearly 100% of Mashpee's city boundary.

Annual Indian Pow Wow - Originally, the annual Indian Pow Wows werepartcipated in mainly by the chiefs to discuss problems and perform religiousceremonies. In the early 1900's this purpose was expanded. The Pow Wownow involves tribes invited from all over the nation, as well as the localWampanoag tribe, who gather together to celebrate their heritage in fullIndian regalia This celebration, which takes place the Fourth of Julyweekend, includes dances, handcrafts and demonstrations, crafts booths,and refreshments. There is group supper on Saturday night and, usually, agood old-fashioned Cape Cod clam bake on Sunday. Check local papers forprecise information about the PowWow or call the Tribal Council at 477-0208.
Late 1700's CemeteryIOld Indian Burial Ground - A tiny plot by the sideof the road, this cemetery offers a fine example of headstones of the period.Many are inscribed with philosophical or witty sayings, and are carved withscenes and symbols.
Mashpee Wampanoag Indian Museum -Located on Route 130 across thestreet from a quaint little pond and town herring run, this building waserected in the early 19th century by an ancestor of Richard Bourne, amissionary and minister to the Mashpee Wampanoag Indians.

Mashpee History----The first European explorer known to set foot on this land was BartholomewGosnold. He found the surrounding waters filled with codfish and named thepeninsula Cape Cod. Cape Cod, or the "Narrow Land" as it was called by theIndians is a place filled with legend and folklore. The town of Mashpee is noexception. Mashpee was originally an Indian village. Many areas were settledas towns throughout Massachusetts beginning in the 17th century, but it wasdifferent in Mashpee. It was an area set aside by the Plymouth Colony as ahome for the Indians displaced by the new towns being built on theirancestral lands. Mashpee was at first designated a Plantation but finally wasincorporated as a Town in 1870.
Now the Town of Mashpee is administrated on a daily basis by an electedBoard of Selectmen and an Executive Secretary, whose duties and fiscalresponsibilities are determined by the old fashioned New England townmeeting form of government.
The last decade has seen a tremendous growth. Mashpee's population is10,044 year-round and increases to 30,000 during the summer. Along withattracting vacationers, Mashpee is a great place to call home.
Archives Building - At present, the library at the Archive Building containsover 300volumes ofMassachusetts Public Documents which were previouslystored in the town hall. The earliest volume dates to 1692. Open to the publicon Thursdays or by appointment. 539-1438.
