         NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITURE


                                   Released: October 7, 2004  

By  the  District  Director,  Tampa  Office,  South  Central 
Region, Enforcement Bureau:

I.  INTRODUCTION

     1.   In this Notice of Apparent Liability for 
Forfeiture (``NAL''), we find that Shadavrus Capital Trust, 
Inc. (``Shadavrus''), owner of antenna structure 1027884 in 
Lecanto, Florida, apparently willfully and repeatedly 
violated Section 17.57 of the Commission's Rules 
(``Rules'')1 by failing to notify immediately the Commission 
upon a change in ownership information.  We conclude, 
pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 
1934, as amended (``Act''),2 that Shadavrus is apparently 
liable for a forfeiture in the amount of three thousand 
dollars ($3,000).

II.  BACKGROUND

     2.   On June 29, 2004, the District Director of the 
Commission's Tampa Office of the Enforcement Bureau issued a 
Letter of Inquiry (LOI) addressed to Shadavrus regarding the 
ownership of antenna structure 1027884.  In its response to 
the LOI, Shadavrus stated that Heart of Citrus, Inc. was the 
original owner of the antenna structure.  Shadavrus stated 
that ownership of the antenna structure was transferred from 
Heart of Citrus, Inc. to it on November 30, 1998 or shortly 
thereafter.  Shadavrus did not submit an application to 
change ownership of the antenna structure from Heart of 
Citrus, Inc. to itself until March 10, 2004.        
     
III.  DISCUSSION

     3.   Section 17.57 of the Rules requires that the owner 
of an antenna structure immediately notify the Commission 
upon any change in structure height or change in ownership 
information.  Shadavrus acquired antenna structure 1027884 
from Heart of Citrus, Inc. on or around November 30, 1998.  
However, Shadavrus did not notify the Commission of this 
change in ownership until March 10, 2004.  

     4.   Based on the evidence before us, we find Shadavrus 
willfully3 and repeatedly4 violated Section 17.57 of the 
Rules by failing to notify immediately the Commission upon a 
change in ownership information for an antenna structure.

     5.   Pursuant to Section 1.80(b)(4) of the Rules,5 the 
base amount for failure to file required forms or 
information is $3,000.  Section 503(b)(2)(D) of the Act, 
requires us to take into account ``...the nature, 
circumstances, extent, and gravity of the violation, and 
with respect to the violator, the degree of culpability, any 
history or prior offenses, ability to pay, and other such 
matters as justice may require.''6 Considering the entire 
record and applying the factors listed above, we conclude 
that Shadavrus is apparently liable for a $3,000 forfeiture.

IV.  ORDERING CLAUSES

     6.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to 
Section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
