Antenna structure owners are required to maintain a record of any observed or otherwise known extinguishment or improper functioning of a structure light and include the nature of such extinguishment, date and time the extinguishment was observed or otherwise noted, and the date and time of FAA notification.

On August 13, 2004, the Bureau issued a Forfeiture Order which did not cancel the forfeiture but reduced the amount because it found that 4M of Richmond had a history of overall compliance.

The Forfeiture Order imposed a forfeiture in the amount of $6,600 against 4M of Richmond for violations of Sections 17.49 and 73.1745(a) of the Rules (reduced from $11,000 because of history of overall compliance and good faith).

  • Released: December 22, 2006 By the Regional Director, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau: I. INTRODUCTION 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 antenna structure #1019247.

Consequently, Entravision does not dispute the March 17, and March 20, 2006, observations of the malfunctioning top white strobe light made by the San Diego agent, but states that it immediately arranged to have the white strobe light repaired and to repair the remote control system. Section 17.49 of the Rules requires antenna structure registrants to ``maintain a record of any observed or otherwise known extinguishment or improper functioning of a structure light . . .'' The San Diego agent was correct in reviewing these records to determine the extent of the lighting outage. If errors existed in these records, as Entravision now contends, the errors were caused

Antenna structure owners are required to maintain a record of any observed or otherwise known extinguishment or improper functioning of a structure light and include the nature of such extinguishment, date and time the extinguishment was observed or otherwise noted, and the date and time of FAA notification. See 47 C.F.R. § 17.49. As provided by 47 U.S.C. § 312(f)(2), a continuous violation is ``repeated'' if it continues for more than one day. The Conference Report for Section 312(f)(2) indicates that Congress intended to apply this definition to Section 503 of the Act as well as Section 312. See H.R. Rep. 97th Cong. 2d Sess. 51 (1982).
