Sec.  1.955   Termination of authorizations.

   (a) Authorizations in general remain valid until terminated in accordance
   with this section, except that the Commission may revoke an authorization
   pursuant to section 312 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. See
   47 U.S.C. 312.

   (1) Expiration. Authorizations automatically terminate, without specific
   Commission action, on the expiration date specified therein, unless a timely
   application for renewal is filed. See  Sec. 1.949 of this part. No authorization
   granted under the provisions of this part shall be for a term longer than
   ten years.

   (2) Failure to meet construction or coverage requirements. Authorizations
   automatically terminate, without specific Commission action, if the licensee
   fails to meet applicable construction or coverage requirements. See
    Sec. 1.948(c) of this part.

   (3) Service discontinued. Authorizations automatically terminate, without
   specific Commission action, if service is permanently discontinued. The
   Commission authorization or the individual service rules govern the
   definition of permanent discontinuance for purposes of this section. A
   licensee who discontinues operations shall notify the Commission of the
   discontinuance of operations by submitting FCC Form 601 or 605 requesting
   license cancellation.

   (b) Special temporary authority (STA) automatically terminates without
   specific Commission action upon failure to comply with the terms and
   conditions therein, or at the end of the period specified therein, unless a
   timely request for an extension of the STA term is filed in accordance with
    Sec. 1.931 of this part. If a timely filed request for extension of the STA term
   is dismissed or denied, the STA automatically terminates, without specific
   Commission action, on the day after the applicant or the applicant's
   attorney is notified of the Commission's action dismissing or denying the
   request for extension.

   (c) Authorizations submitted by licensees for cancellation terminate when
   the Commission gives Public Notice of such action.
