   Released: July 10, 2012

   By the Resident Agent, Anchorage Resident Agent  Office, Western Region,

    1. This is a  Notice of Violation (Notice) issued pursuant to Section
       1.89 of the Commission's Rules, to  Alascom, Inc., registrant of
       antenna structure #1005539 located in Anchor Point, Alaska.

    2. On May 18, 2012, at 12:00 p.m., agents of the Enforcement Bureau's 
       Anchorage Resident Agent  Office inspected  antenna structure #1005539
       located 12.1 kilometers north of Starisky Creek near Anchor Point,
       Alaska,  and observed the following violation:

   a. 47 C.F.R. S:  Section 17.23: "Unless otherwise specified by the
   Commission, each new or altered antenna structure to be registered on or
   after January 1, 1996, must conform to the FAA's painting and lighting
   recommendations set forth on the structure's FAA determination of "no
   hazard," as referenced in the following FAA Advisory Circulars: AC
   70/7460-1J "Obstruction Marking and Lighting," effective January 1, 1996,
   and AC 150/5345-43E, "Specification for Obstruction Lighting Equipment,"
