    2. On April 2, 2008, an agent of the Commission's Honolulu Office
       inspected ship radio station HA7068E, located in front of Hawaii
       Railing Inc., Kapolei, Hawaii, and observed the following violation:

   47 C.F.R. S: 80.89(a): "Stations must not engage in superfluous
   radiocommunication." Emergency position indicating radio beacon ("EPIRB")
   stations are intended to be actuated manually or automatically and
   operated automatically as part of a ship or a survival craft station as a
   locating aid for survival purposes. At the time of the inspection, the
   agent found that the ship's ACR EPIRB had been inadvertently activated.

   47 C.F.R. S: 80.1053: "Operation of Class A EPIRB stations shall be
   prohibited after December 31, 2006." The ship's ACR EPIRB that was falsely
   activated may not be used on commercial or recreational watercraft, as it
   is a Class A device.

       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Hawaii Railing Inc. must

       violation, must contain a statement of the specific action(s) taken to
       correct each violation and preclude recurrence, and should include a
       time line for completion of pending corrective action(s). The response
       must be complete in itself and signed by an officer or authorized
       representative of Hawaii Railing Inc.. All replies and documentation
