       Inc. ("Cablevision"), operator of a cable system serving parts of
       Westchester, New York (Physical System ID 004901).

    2. On July 16, 2008, an agent of the Commission's New York Office
       inspected Cablevision's cable system, Physical System ID 004901, and
       observed the following violations:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 76.1702(a): "Every employment unit with six or more
        full-time employees shall maintain for public inspection a file
        containing copies of all EEO program annual reports filed with the
        Commission pursuant to Section 76.77 and the equal employment
        opportunity program information described in paragraph (b) of this
        section. These materials shall be placed in the unit's public
        inspection file annually by the date that the unit's EEO program
        annual report is due to be filed and shall be retained for a period
        of five years. The file shall be maintained at the central office and
        at every location with six or more full-time employees." During the
        inspection, the agent observed that Cablevision's public inspection
        file did not contain the 2005 EEO program annual report (Form 396-C).

     b. 47 C.F.R. S: 76.1702(b): "The following equal employment opportunity
        program information shall be included annually in the unit's public
        file, and on the unit's web site, if it has one, at the time of the
        filing of its FCC Form 396-C: (1) A list of all full-time vacancies
        filled by the multichannel video programming distributor employment
        unit during the preceding year, identified by job title; (2) For each
        such vacancy, the recruitment source(s) utilized to fill the vacancy
        (including, if applicable, organizations entitled to notification
        pursuant to S: 76.75(b)(1)(ii) of this section, which should be
        separately identified), identified by name, address, contact person
        and telephone number; (3) The recruitment source that referred the
        hiree for each full-time vacancy during the preceding year; (4) Data
        reflecting the total number of persons interviewed for full-time
        vacancies during the preceding year and the total number of
        interviewees referred by each recruitment source utilized in
        connection with such vacancies; and (5) A list and brief description
        of the initiatives undertaken pursuant to S: 76.75(b)(2) during the
        preceding year, if applicable." The agent observed that Cablevision's
        public file did not contain the required annual EEO information for
        the years 2003, 2005, 2006, and 2007.

    3. Pursuant to Section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Cablevision must submit a
       written statement concerning this matter within twenty (20) days of
       release of this Notice. The response must fully explain each
       violation, must contain a statement of the specific action(s) taken to
       correct each violation and preclude recurrence, and should include a

       must be complete in itself and signed by a principal or officer of
