- 30, 2007 By the Regional Director, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau: I. INTRODUCTION In this Forfeiture Order (``Order''), we issue a monetary forfeiture in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) to Entravision Communications Corporation ("Entravision"), registrant of antenna structure #1015656 near Imperial, California, for repeated violation of Section 303(q) of the Commissions Act of 1934, as amended (``Act''), and Section 17.23 of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). On June 22, 2006, the Enforcement Bureau's San Diego Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (``NAL'') in the amount of $10,000 to Entravision for failing to comply with painting and lighting requirements specified for antenna structure #1015656, and for failing to ensure that the structure was repainted as often as necessary to

- held responsible and accountable for a rule violation. Mr. Martin also states that he ``did not know that the tower's paint was in violation of standards.'' A lack of knowledge neither exonerates nor mitigates a rule violation. Mr. Martin, as a tower owner, is expected to know and adhere to the rules. The tower painting specifications are found in Section 17.23 of the Rules. That rule amplifies the general requirements of Section 17.50 of the Rules. According to Section 17.23 of the Rules, antenna structures ``must'' conform to the painting requirements referenced in the Federal Aviation Administration's (``FAA'') Advisory Circular, entitled ``Obstruction Marking and Lighting.'' Thus, the requirements are set forth and the burden is on the tower owner to ensure

- Communications Relay Corporation (``CRC''), registrant of antenna structure #1019247, in Claremont, California. CRC seeks reconsideration of the Forfeiture Order, issued by the Western Region, Enforcement Bureau (``Region''), in which CRC was found liable for a monetary forfeiture in the amount of $13,000 for repeated violations of Section 303(q) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, (``the Act''), and Sections 17.23, 17.47, 17.48, 17.49 and 17.57 of the Commission's Rules ("Rules"). For the reasons discussed below, we deny CRC's Petition. II. BACKGROUND According to the Commission's ASR database, antenna structure #1019247 is required to have painting and lighting in accordance with Chapters 3, 4, 5 and 13 of FAA Circular 70/7460-1J. Specifically, the structure is required to be painted and have

(``Waldec''), registrant of antenna structure number 1253674, in Anchorage, Alaska, for willful and repeated violation of Section 17.23 of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). The noted violation involves Waldec's failure to conform to the FAA's painting and lighting recommendations as set forth on the structure's Federal Aviation Administration (``FAA'') determination of ``no hazard.'' 2. On December 21, 2009, the Enforcement Bureau's Anchorage Resident Agent Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (``NAL'') in the amount of $4,000

- any burdens such a requirement would impose on tower owners, or on the public, and whether alternatives may be available or preferable. We also seek comment on our statutory authority to implement this tentative conclusion. In the event we adopt our tentative conclusion, we seek comment specifically on how best to implement this policy. For instance, should we revise Section 17.23 of our rules to establish that, unless otherwise specified by the Commission, each new or altered registered antenna structure must use medium intensity white strobe lights for nighttime conspicuity if the FAA determines that the use of such lights would not impair the safety of air navigation and recommends their use? We note that Section 17.23 of our rules currently

INTRODUCTION In this Forfeiture Order (``Order''), we issue a monetary forfeiture in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) to Entravision Communications Corporation ("Entravision"), registrant of antenna structure #1015656 near Imperial, California, for repeated violation of Section 303(q) of the Commissions Act of 1934, as amended (``Act''), and Section 17.23 of the Commission's Rules (``Rules''). On June 22, 2006, the Enforcement Bureau's San Diego Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (``NAL'') in the amount of $10,000 to Entravision for failing to comply with painting and lighting requirements specified for antenna structure #1015656, and for failing to ensure that the structure was repainted as often as necessary to

- held responsible and accountable for a rule violation. Mr. Martin also states that he ``did not know that the tower's paint was in violation of standards.'' A lack of knowledge neither exonerates nor mitigates a rule violation. Mr. Martin, as a tower owner, is expected to know and adhere to the rules. The tower painting specifications are found in Section 17.23 of the Rules. That rule amplifies the general requirements of Section 17.50 of the Rules. According to Section 17.23 of the Rules, antenna structures ``must'' conform to the painting requirements referenced in the Federal Aviation Administration's (``FAA'') Advisory Circular, entitled ``Obstruction Marking and Lighting.'' Thus, the requirements are set forth and the burden is on the tower owner to ensure

After comparing the allocation figure to the 2000 U.S. Census household data for each community, Bright House calculated a DBS penetration rate of 23.27 percent for Pasco County and 17.23 percent for Port Richey. Pasco challenges Bright House's figures and calculations with respect to actual occupied households in the county and estimated DBS subscribers. Pasco asserts that Bright House's data is flawed because it shows that there are more county households subscribing to MVPD services than there are total county households as reflected in the 2000 Census figures.

Pursuant to its ASR, Spectrasite's 312.8 meter antenna structure on Sesame Street in Richmond, Virginia must exhibit high intensity white obstruction lighting. In addition, the FAA's Determination of No Hazard to Air Navigation for SpectraSite's 312.8 meter structure conditioned that determination on the structure being lighted. The FAA's specifications are made mandatory by Section 17.23 of the Rules. SpectraSite completed construction of this structure on July 17, 2002. During our inspections on November 5, 6, and 7, 2002, SpectraSite failed to exhibit any of the required obstruction lighting on its 312.8 meter structure. 12. While the 180.9 meter tower also exhibited no lighting, this does not violate our rules. Pursuant to a request by the

- completely subjective, and it is unreasonable to assess a forfeiture in this instance without prior notice. . .'' It further suggests that before issuing an NAL the Field Office should advise a tower owner of its need to repaint. In addition to the Bureau's previous response to these arguments, we emphasize that the tower painting specifications are found in Section 17.23 of the Rules. That Rule amplifies the general requirements of Section 17.50 of the Rules. According to Section 17.23 of the Rules, antenna structures ``must'' conform to the painting requirements referenced in the Federal Aviation Administration's (``FAA'') Advisory Circular, entitled ``Obstruction Marking and Lighting.'' Thus, the requirements are set forth and the burden is on the tower owner, not the

- any burdens such a requirement would impose on tower owners, or on the public, and whether alternatives may be available or preferable. We also seek comment on our statutory authority to implement this tentative conclusion. In the event we adopt our tentative conclusion, we seek comment specifically on how best to implement this policy. For instance, should we revise Section 17.23 of our rules to establish that, unless otherwise specified by the Commission, each new or altered registered antenna structure must use medium intensity white strobe lights for nighttime conspicuity if the FAA determines that the use of such lights would not impair the safety of air navigation and recommends their use? We note that Section 17.23 of our rules currently

We disagree with Pinnacle's argument that the Commission's rules provide no guidance on when cables attached to an antenna structure are required to be painted. Section 17.23 of the Rules provides that unless otherwise specified by the Commission, each new or altered antenna structure to be registered on or after January 1, 1996, must conform to the Federal Aviation Administration's (``FAA's'') painting and lighting recommendations for the structure, as referenced in FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1J, Obstruction Marking and Lighting.

We note, however, that Section 17.23 applies only to new and altered antenna structures registered on or after January 1, 1996, not to existing structures authorized prior to July 1, 1996.

Moreover, the antenna structure registration for Barinowski's antenna structure registration number 1062662 requires it to comply with FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1J. This Advisory Circular, which is incorporated by reference to our rules in Section 17.23 of the Rules,7 explicitly states that ``alternative bands of aviation orange and white are normally displayed on ... coaxial cable, conduits and other cables attached to the face of a tower.''8 Further, pursuant to Section 17.23 of the Rules, ``the specifications, standards, and general requirements stated in [this Circular] are mandatory.'' Thus, any cables attached to the face of Barinowski's

Pursuant to its ASR, Spectrasite's 312.8 meter antenna structure on Sesame Street in Richmond, Virginia must exhibit high intensity white obstruction lighting. In addition, the FAA's Determination of No Hazard to Air Navigation for SpectraSite's 312.8 meter structure conditioned that determination on the structure being lighted. The FAA's specifications are made mandatory by Section 17.23 of the Rules.18 SpectraSite completed construction of this structure on July 17, 2002. During our inspections on November 5, 6, and 7, 2002, SpectraSite failed to exhibit any of the required obstruction lighting on its 312.8 meter structure.19 12.

We disagree with Pinnacle's argument that the Commission's rules provide no guidance on when cables attached to an antenna structure are required to be painted. Section 17.23 of the Rules provides that unless otherwise specified by the Commission, each new or altered antenna structure to be registered on or after January 1, 1996, must conform to the Federal Aviation Administration's (``FAA's'') painting and lighting recommendations for the structure, as referenced in FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1J, Obstruction Marking and Lighting. This Advisory Circular explicitly states that ``[a]lternate

A NOTAM expires automatically after 15 days, unless the tower owner calls the FAA to extend the NOTAM. 4 The Atlanta Office also found that SCCC had failed to conform to the painting and lighting specifications contained in the FAA Advisory Circular specified in its ASR in willful and repeated violation of Section 17.23 of the Rules, 47 C.F.R. 17.23. We note, however, that Section 17.23 applies only to new and altered antenna structures registered on or after January 1, 1996, not to existing structures authorized prior to July 1, 1996.

Moreover, the antenna structure registration for Barinowski's antenna structure registration number 1062662 requires it to comply with FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1J. This Advisory Circular, which is incorporated by reference to our rules in Section 17.23 of the Rules,7 explicitly states that ``alternative bands of aviation orange and white are normally displayed on ... coaxial cable, conduits and other cables attached to the face of a tower.''8 Further, pursuant to Section 17.23 of the Rules, ``the specifications, standards, and general requirements stated in [this Circular] are mandatory.'' Thus, any cables attached to the face of Barinowski's

On December 3, 2003, the Bureau issued a Forfeiture Order to Barinowski in which it imposed an $8,000 forfeiture for failure to clean and repaint its antenna structure to maintain good visibility. The Forfeiture Order found that consistent with FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1J5 and pursuant to Section 17.23 of the Rules,6 the cables attached to Barinowski's antenna structure were required to be painted but they were not, thus, reducing the visibility of the antenna structure.

In this Forfeiture Order ("Order"), we issue a monetary forfeiture in the amount of thirteen thousand dollars ($13,000) to Communications Relay Corporation ("CRC"), for willful and repeated violations of Section 303(q) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, ("the Act"), and Sections 17.23, 17.47, 17.48, 17.49, and 17.57 of the Commission's Rules ("Rules"). On January 19, 2006, the Los Angeles Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL") in the amount of $13,000 to CRC after determining that CRC apparently willfully and repeatedly failed to comply with the antenna structure registration ("ASR") lighting, monitoring, record keeping, and notification requirements specified for

- completely subjective, and it is unreasonable to assess a forfeiture in this instance without prior notice. . ." It further suggests that before issuing an NAL the Field Office should advise a tower owner of its need to repaint. In addition to the Bureau's previous response to these arguments, we emphasize that the tower painting specifications are found in Section 17.23 of the Rules. That Rule amplifies the general requirements of Section 17.50 of the Rules. According to Section 17.23 of the Rules, antenna structures "must" conform to the painting requirements referenced in the Federal Aviation Administration's ("FAA") Advisory Circular, entitled "Obstruction Marking and Lighting." Thus, the requirements are set forth and the burden is on the tower owner, not the

On June 22, 2006, the Enforcement Bureau's San Diego Office issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL") in the amount of $10,000 to Entravision for failing to comply with painting and lighting requirements specified for antenna structure #1015656, and for failing to ensure that the structure was repainted as often as necessary to

- held responsible and accountable for a rule violation. Mr. Martin also states that he "did not know that the tower's paint was in violation of standards." A lack of knowledge neither exonerates nor mitigates a rule violation. Mr. Martin, as a tower owner, is expected to know and adhere to the rules. The tower painting specifications are found in Section 17.23 of the Rules. That rule amplifies the general requirements of Section 17.50 of the Rules. According to Section 17.23 of the Rules, antenna structures "must" conform to the painting requirements referenced in the Federal Aviation Administration's ("FAA") Advisory Circular, entitled "Obstruction Marking and Lighting."
