                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: November 24, 2008

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

    1. This is a Notice of Violation ("Notice") issued pursuant to Section
       1.89 of the Commission's Rules, to Sequoyah County Water Association
       ("SCWA"), licensee of radio station WNRO670 in Sallisaw, Oklahoma.

    2. On October 22, 2008, in response to a complaint of interference on
       156.800 MHz from the United States Coast Guard ("USCG"), agents of the
       Commission's New Orleans Office of the Enforcement Bureau ("New
       Orleans Office"), using mobile direction finding techniques, located
       the source of interference to be radio station WNRO670, located on a
       SCWA water tower off Blue Mouse Road, near Sallisaw, Oklahoma. The
       agents observed the following violation:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 90.403(e): "Licensees shall take reasonable precautions
        to avoid causing harmful interference." At the time of the
        observation, the agents from the New Orleans Office determined the
        interference was caused by spurious emissions emanating from SCWA,
        radio station WNRO670, which is authorized to operate on a center
        frequency of 173.3375 MHz. The SCWA transmitter was confirmed as the
        source of interference by on/off tests.

    3. Pursuant to Section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Sequoyah County Water
       Association must submit a written statement concerning this matter
       within 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 time line for completion of pending corrective
       action(s). The response must be complete in itself and signed by a
       principal or officer of Sequoyah County Water Association. All replies
