       Towers), registrant of antenna structure # 1026301, in Calhan, CO.

    2. On March 20, 2012, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's  Denver
       District Office inspected  antenna structure # 1026301  located in
       Calhan, CO, and observed the following violation:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 17.57: "The owner of an antenna structure for which an
        Antenna Structure Registration Number has been obtained must notify
        the Commission within 24 hours of completion of construction (FCC
        Form 854-R) and/or dismantlement (FCC Form 854). The owner must also
        immediately notify the Commission using FCC Form 854 upon any change
        in structure height or change in ownership information." During the
        inspection, the agent observed that construction of antenna structure
        number 1026301 had been completed, however, the FCC's antenna
        structure registration database showed the structure's status as
        "granted."

       and Section 1.89 of the Commission's Rules, American Towers  must
