  • forfeiture of $8,000 against Radio One for willful violations of the following sections of the Commission's Rules (``the Rules''): 11.35(a) (failure to have operational Emergency Alert System (``EAS'') equipment); 73.1125(e) (failure to establish a local or toll-free telephone number in the community of license); 73.1350(c)(1) (failure to establish monitoring procedures to determine compliance with Section 73.1560 regarding operating power); and 73.1800(a) (failure to maintain a station log).3 2. Radio One now asserts that its forfeiture should be cancelled because ``newly available evidence'' suggests that the Bureau applied its forfeiture policies inconsistently to the detriment of Radio One.

  • which supports a different result. Radio One involved a monetary forfeiture originally imposed for willful violation of the following Rules: 11.35(a) (failure to have operational Emergency Alert System (``EAS'') equipment); 73.1125(e) (failure to establish a local or toll-free telephone number in the community of license); 73.1350(c)(1) (failure to establish monitoring procedures to determine compliance with Section 73.1560 regarding operating power); 73.1800(a) (failure to maintain a station log); and 73.3526(a)(2) (failure to maintain a public inspection file). In a series of rulings, the Enforcement Bureau and the Commission reduced the originally proposed monetary forfeiture of $22,000 to $8,000 on the basis that Radio One did maintain a public inspection file and had a history of overall compliance. 21 47 C.F.R. 0.111, 0.311,

We conclude, pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"), that MBHD is apparently liable for forfeiture in the amount of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000). We also admonish MBHD for failing to post its station license, failing to maintain a station log, and failing to designate a chief operator, as required under Sections 73.1230, 73.1800, 73.1820, and 73.1870 of the Rules. II. BACKGROUND 2. WYGG's station license (File No. BLED-19940304KZ) authorizes WYGG to operate with an antenna height of 14 meters above ground level ("AGL") at the coordinates 40DEG 13' 01'' north latitude and 074DEG 00' 33'' west longitude. The station license also provides that the licensee must "reduce power or cease operation as necessary
