§ 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 § 1.949 of this part. No authorization
granted under the provisions of this part shall be for a term longer than
ten years, except to the extent a longer term is authorized under § 27.13 of
part 27 of this chapter.
(2) Failure to meet construction or coverage requirements. Authorizations
automatically terminate (in whole or in part as set forth in the service
rules), without specific Commission action, if the licensee fails to meet
applicable construction or coverage requirements. See § 1.946(c).
(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
§ 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.
