                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: October 22, 2007

   By the District Director, Philadelphia Office, Northeast Region,
   Enforcement Bureau:

    1. This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued pursuant to Section
       1.89 of the Commission's Rules to Bentleyville Telephone Company
       ("BTC"), operator of a cable system serving Bentleyville, Pennsylvania
       (Community Unit No. PA-3297).

    2. On September 13, 2007, an agent of the Commission's Philadelphia
       Office inspected the BTC cable system located in Bentleyville,
       Pennsylvania and observed the following violations:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 11.52(d): "EAS participants must monitor two EAS
        sources. The monitoring assignments of each broadcast station and
        cable system and wireless cable system are specified in the State EAS
        Plan and FCC Mapbook." At the time of inspection, BTC was not
        monitoring the designated second local primary ("LP2") station, WQED
        on 89.3 MHz. BTC was monitoring station WFHM, Cleveland, Ohio and the
        first local primary ("LP-1") station KDKA, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

     b. 47 C.F.R. S:11.61(b): "Entries shall be made in EAS Participant
        records, as specified in Sections 11.35(a) and 11.54(b)(13)." At the
        time of inspection, the cable system records contained no entries
        documenting the receipt and transmission of the required monthly test
        (RMT) for the month of August 2007 and the receipt of the required
        weekly test (RWT) between August 31, 2007 and September 12, 2007. No
        system record entries were found indicating the reasons why the RMT
        had not been received or transmitted in August 2007 and why the RWT
        had not been received between August 31, 2007 and September 12, 2007.

     c. 47 C.F.R. S: 76.605(a)(12): "As an exception to the general provision
        requiring measurements to be made at subscriber terminals, and
        without regard to the type of signals carried by the cable television
        system, signal leakage from a cable television system shall be
        measured in accordance with the procedures outlined in 76.609(h) and
        shall be limited as follows: Over 54 MHz up to and including 216
        MHz...... 20 micro-volts per meter, measured at 3 meters." At the
        time of the inspection, the agent measured signal leakage in excess
        of 20 micro-volts per meter (mV/m) on the frequency of 133.2625 MHz
        at the following location:

                                                    Bentleyville, PA
