Sec.  73.3578   Amendments to applications for renewal, assignment or transfer of
control.

   (a)  Any amendments to an application for renewal of any instrument of
   authorization shall be considered to be a minor amendment. However, the FCC
   may, within 15 days after tender for filing of any amendment, advise the
   applicant that the amendment is considered to be a major amendment and
   therefore is subject to the provisions of  Sec. 73.3580.

   (b) Any amendment to an application for assignment of construction permit or
   license, or consent to the transfer of control of a corporation holding such
   a  construction  permit  or license, shall be considered to be a minor
   amendment, except that any amendment which seeks a change in the ownership
   interest of the proposed assignee or transferee which would result in a
   change in control, or any amendment which would require the filing of FCC
   Forms 314, 315, or 345 (see  Sec. 73.3540), if the changes sought were made in an
   original  application  for assignment or transfer of control, shall be
   considered to be a major amendment. However, the FCC may, within 15 days
   after the acceptance for filing of any other amendment, advise the applicant
   that the amendment is considered to be a major amendment and therefore is
   subject to the provisions of  Sec. 73.3580.
