                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: August 2, 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 Clear Communications, Inc., licensee
       of FM Station WVLT in Vineland, New Jersey. This Notice may be
       combined with a further action, if further action is warranted.

    2. On May 31, 2011, agents of the Commission's Philadelphia Office
       inspected FM Station WVLT in Vineland, New Jersey 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 developed
        in accordance with FCC monitoring priorities..." The Emergency Alert
        System Plan for New Jersey specifies that WVLT must monitor a Primary
        Entry Point Station and WENJ 97.3 MHz. At the time of inspection,
        WVLT was not monitoring a Primary Entry Point Station.

     b. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1870(c)(3): "Review of the station records at least
        once each week to determine if required entries are being made
        correctly.... [U]pon completion of the review, the chief operator or
        his designee must date and sign the log...." At the time of
        inspection, there was no indication that the logs were being signed
        and dated by the chief operator.

    3. As the nation's emergency warning system, the Emergency Alert System
       is critical to public safety, and we recognize the vital role that
       broadcasters play in ensuring its success. The Commission takes
       seriously any violations of the Rules implementing the EAS and expects
       full compliance from its regulatees. We also must investigate
       violations of other rules that apply to broadcast licensees.  Pursuant
       to section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and
       section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, we seek additional information
       concerning the violation(s) and any remedial actions the station may
       have taken.  Therefore, Clear Communications, Inc. must submit a
       written statement concerning this matter within twenty (20) days of
       release of this Notice. The response (i) must fully explain each
       violation, including all relevant surrounding facts and circumstances,
       (ii) must contain a statement of the specific action(s) taken to
       correct each violation and preclude recurrence, and (iii) must include
       a time line for completion of any pending corrective action(s). The
       response must be complete in itself and must not be abbreviated by
       reference to other communications or answers to other notices.

    4. In accordance with section 1.16 of the Commission's Rules, we direct
       Clear Communications, Inc. to support its response to this Notice with
       an affidavit or declaration under penalty of perjury, signed and dated
       by an authorized officer of FM Station WVLT with personal knowledge of
       the representations provided in Clear Communication Inc.'s response,
       verifying the truth and accuracy of the information therein, and
       confirming that all of the information requested by this Notice which

       been produced. To knowingly and willfully make any false statement or
       conceal any material fact in reply to this Notice is punishable by
       fine or imprisonment under Title 18 of the U.S. Code.
