Riverside alleged that Tonkin had violated Section 90.157 of the Commission's Rules, by discontinuing operation on Station WNXG709 for a period in excess of  S'one year.R0 y yO 'Ѝ47 C.F.R.  90.157.R Riverside had previously provided Tonkin's repeater service, and offered, as evidence of Tonkin's discontinuance, correspondence from Tonkin terminating its service agreement with Riverside  S`'on January 1, 1994.g` y yO'ЍRiverside Finder's Preference Request at 2.g  S'3. On June 9, 1998, following the receipt of Riverside's finder's request, the Branch requested  S'information from Tonkin in connection with Tonkin's assignment to National Charter.P y yO'ЍLetter from Mary Shultz, Chief, Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch, Public Safety and Private Wireless Division, to Phillip Tonkin, Tonkin Plumbing (June 9, 1998). The Branch sought confirmation that Tonkin was indeed still in operation and, to that end, requested information  S'regarding Tonkin's current repeater service.<y {O'ЍId. < When Tonkin failed to respond, the Branch concluded that the station was not in operation and, on August 5, 1998, cancelled Tonkin's license and dismissed  SH 'National Charter's assignment application as defective.H :y yO"'ЍLetter from Mary Shultz, Chief, Licensing and Technical Analysis Branch, Public Safety Private Wireless Division, to Phillip Tonkin, Tonkin Plumbing (August 5, 1998). On August 18, 1998, Tonkin filed the Petition  S 'regarding the Branch's decision to cancel its license. y yOR'ЍTonkin Plumbing Petition for Reconsideration (filed August 18, 1998) (Tonkin Petition).  S 'I III. DISCUSSION ă  S '4. Tonkin argues that the Branch's June 9, 1998 information request did not contain a reply date, and further, that Tonkin failed to reply sooner due to a "miscommunication" between Tonkin and Wavelink, its service provider, as to which party would be responsible for responding to the Branch's "0" ,>(>(ZZ"  S'information request.S y yOh'ЍTonkin Petition at 12.S In its Petition, Tonkin also provides responses to the Branch's inquiry regarding  S'its operational status.U Xy {O'ЍId. at 24. U  S'5. Section 1.106(c) of the Commission's Rules provides that a petition for reconsideration of a staff action which relies on facts not previously presented will be granted only if the facts: (1) relate to new events or changed circumstances; or (2) were unknown to the petitioner and could not have been learned through ordinary diligence; or (3) are determined by the Commission as required in the  S'public interest. y {Or 'Ѝ47 C.F.R.  1.106(c); see also WWIZ, Inc., 37 FCC 685 (1994), aff'd, Lorain Journal Co. v. FCC, 351 F.2d 824 (D.C. Cir. 1965), cert. denied, 383 U.S. 967 (1966). Since the Branch did not have the opportunity to weigh any of the information provided by Tonkin in its Petition prior to its cancellation of Tonkin's license, we find that the public  S'interest requires consideration of the evidence of operational status submitted in that pleading. JDy {O|'ЍSee e.g., Billy J. Rutledge Request for a Finder's Preference, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 14 FCC Rcd 6565,656869  7 (1999) (Commission permitted declaration addressing SMR license cancellation first presented in petition for reconsideration, where information went to establish SMR station's operational status);  {O'(Local Exchange Carriers' Individual Case Basis DS3 Service Offerings, Memorandum Opinion and Order on  {O'Reconsideration, 5 FCC Rcd 4842, 4845  33 (1990) (Commission determined that public interest dictated the  {Oj'consideration of information concerning demand for dark fiber not revealed in the original record); see also  {O4'Linda Crook, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 3 FCC Rcd 1867, 1868  6 (Rev. Brd. 1988) (Review Board found that public interest required consideration of new information in construction permit case).  SH '6. Tonkin maintains that, following, the termination of its service agreement with Riverside, it agreed to utilize repeater service provided by Wavelink. In support of this assertion, Tonkin provided the statement of Ted Wayman. Mr. Wayman certified that Station WNXG709 was constructed at the  S 'authorized coordinates (334240N, 1173154W) and placed in operation in October, 1994.J V y yO'ЍTonkin Petition at 23. J Mr.  S 'Wayman further affirms that "the station has remained continuously operational to date."D y {O.'ԍId. at Wayman Exhibit.D Additionally, Tonkin attached invoices from Wavelink demonstrating that service was provided by  SX'Wavelink beginning in October, 1994.AXxy {Op 'ЍId. at 3.A Therefore, based on this information, we conclude that Station WNXG709 was operational during this period. Moreover, as we have taken the facts presented by Tonkin regarding its operational status into consideration, we find it unnecessary to address Tonkin's argument concerning the Branch's failure to include a reply date on its information request. Accordingly, we grant Tonkin's Petition and reinstate its license for Station WNXG709. In  S'addition, we reinstate the related assignment application filed by National Charter. y yO:&' x* ԍWe apprise National Charter that it is likely that its assignment application, originally FCC File No. D067815, will be reassigned a new FCC file number upon reinstatement.
