  • 1999, agents of the Commission's Denver Field Office ("Denver Office") conducted a routine inspection of FM broadcast station KNEC. The agents found several violations, including those noted above. On June 7, 1999, the District Director of the Denver Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability ("NAL") to Arnold in the amount of $16,000 for violations of Sections 11.35, 11.61, 17.4, 73.1225, 73.1350. 73.1820, and 73.1870 of the Rules. On February 9, 2000, after receiving a response from the licensee, the Enforcement Bureau issued a Forfeiture Order which upheld the NAL. 3. On February 24, 2000, Arnold filed a Petition for Reconsideration (``Petition'') of the Forfeiture Order. In its Petition, Arnold argued that the forfeiture amount should be substantially reduced.

Based on the evidence, we further find that A-O willfully and repeatedly violated Section 73.1400 of the Rules by failing to have adequate transmission system monitoring and control. 21. A-O claims that the inspection of KTMN ``was not conducted in accordance with'' Section 73.1225(a) of the Rules,31 because ``KTMN was not on the air and was not conducting business'' at the time of the inspection. Section 73.1225(a) simply specifies the times at which broadcast station licensees must make their stations available for inspection; it is not the basis for the Commission's authority to inspect broadcast stations. The basis for the Commission's authority to inspect

  • must accompany a field agent at the time of the inspection. 8. Greenwood's argument is without merit. Section 1 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act") states that the Commission "shall execute and enforce the provisions of this Act" and does not require supervision of Commission enforcement activities by the Commission's regulatees. Consistent with the statutory mandate, Section 73.1225 of the Rules does not require that a Commission inspection be witnessed by the subject of the inspection. Moreover, no advance notice or appointment is necessary for the Commission to conduct an inspection. Instead, the rule requires that "the licensee of a broadcast station [shall] make the station available for inspection by representatives of the FCC during the station's business

  • 1999, agents of the Commission's Denver Field Office ("Denver Office") conducted a routine inspection of FM broadcast station KNEC. The agents found several violations, including those noted above. On June 7, 1999, the District Director of the Denver Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability ("NAL") to Arnold in the amount of $16,000 for violations of Sections 11.35, 11.61, 17.4, 73.1225, 73.1350. 73.1820, and 73.1870 of the Rules. On February 9, 2000, after receiving a response from the licensee, the Enforcement Bureau issued a Forfeiture Order which upheld the NAL. 3. On February 24, 2000, Arnold filed a Petition for Reconsideration (``Petition'') of the Forfeiture Order. In its Petition, Arnold argued that the forfeiture amount should be substantially reduced.
