   Released: September 7, 2012

   By the District Director, Tampa 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 3G Broadcasting, Inc., licensee of
       Station WOCY in Carrabelle, Florida.

    2. On June 15, 2012, agents of the Commission's Tampa Office inspected
       Station WOCY located at Carrabelle, Florida and observed the following
       violation(s):

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 73.1800(a): "The licensee of each station must maintain
        a station log as required by S: 73.1820. This log shall be kept by
        station employees competent to do so, having actual knowledge of the
        facts required. All entries, whether required or not by the
        provisions of this part, must accurately reflect the station
        operation. Any employee making a log entry shall sign the log,
        thereby attesting to the fact that the entry, or any correction or
        addition made thereto, is an accurate representation of what
        transpired." At the time of inspection, a 3G Broadcasting, Inc.
        representative was unable to provide the FCC agents with a station
        log for WOCY.

     b. 47 C.F.R.  S: 73.1870(b)(3): "The designation of the chief operator
        must be in writing with a copy of the designation posted with the
        station license." At the time of the inspection, there was no written
        designation of the chief operator.

     c. 47 C.F.R.  S: 73.3526(e)(12): "Radio issues/programs lists. For
        commercial AM and FM broadcast stations, every three months a list of
        programs that have provided the station's most significant treatment
        of community issues during the preceding three month period."..."The
        list shall include a brief narrative describing what issues were
        given significant treatment and the programming that provided this
        treatment." At the time of the inspection the Issues Programs
        listings lacked a narrative description of the issues that were given
        significant treatment and the programming that provided this
        treatment, for the quarter January-March of 2012.

    3. Pursuant to Section 308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended, and Section 1.89 of the Commission's rules, 3G Broadcasting,
