Sec.  23.49   Discontinuance of operation.

   The  licensee of each fixed radio station except stations operating in
   Alaska, shall notify the Engineer in Charge of the district where such
   station is located of any of the following changes in the status of such
   station at least two days before such change: (a) Temporary discontinuance
   of operation for a period of ten days or more; (b) the date of resumption of
   operation after temporary discontinuance of operation for a period of ten
   days or more; (c) permanent discontinuance of operation: Provided, however,
   Where any such discontinuance of operation is not voluntary and results from
   causes beyond the control of the licensee, notice thereof shall be given not
   later than two days after such discontinuance of operation. In all cases of
   permanent discontinuance of operation the licensee shall, in addition to
   notifying the engineer of intention to discontinue operation, immediately
   forward  the  station  license  to the Washington, D.C., office of the
   Commission for cancellation.
