   Released: March 4, 2011

   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 Cumulus Licensing L.L.C.
       ("Cumulus"), the licensee of radio station WWIZ in Mercer,
       Pennsylvania.

    2. On November 17, 2009, an agent of the Commission's Philadelphia Office
       inspected radio station WWIZ located in Mercer, Pennsylvania and
       observed the following violations:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 11.52(d): "Broadcast stations ... must monitor two EAS
        sources. The monitoring assignments of each broadcast station ... are
        specified in the State EAS Plan and FCC Mapbook. They are also
        developed in accordance with FCC monitoring priorities..." At the
        time of inspection, Cumulus was not monitoring Local Primary 2
        station WKPL. The Pennsylvania State Plan specifies that WWIZ must
        monitor Local Primary 1 station WWGY on 95.1 MHz and Local Primary 2
        station WKPL on 92.1 MHz.

     b. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1226(a): "Station records and logs shall be made
        available for inspection or duplication at the request of the FCC or
        its representative. ..." At the time of inspection, station records
        and logs concerning the Emergency Alert System (See
        73.1820(a)(1)(iii) for the periods between November 17, 2008 and
        September 30, 2009 and between October 21, 2009 and November 17, 2009
        were not available for inspection.

     c. 47 C.F.R. S: 11.61(a)(2)(i)(A): "Tests of EAS procedures...Required
        Weekly Tests:...AM, FM, and TV stations must conduct tests...at least
        once each week and at random days and times..." Based on a review of
        the WWIZ station logs for the period between September 30, 2009 and
        October 21, 2009, Cumulus was not transmitting the Required Weekly
        Test at random dates and time. Instead, Cumulus was transmitting the
        Required Weekly Tests every Tuesday at 1:36 a.m.

    3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended, and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, Cumulus Licensing
