contained in Title III of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 
which vest authority in the Federal Communications Commission to issue 
licenses to radio stations when it is found that the public interest, 
convenience, and necessity would be served thereby, and to require the 
painting, and/or illumination of antenna structures if and when in its 
judgment such structures constitute, or there is reasonable possibility 
that they may constitute, a menace to air navigation.
    (b) The purpose of this part is to prescribe certain procedures for 
antenna structure registration and standards with respect to the 
Commission's consideration of proposed antenna structures which will 
serve as a guide to antenna structure owners. The standards are

Circulars.
