                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: October 11, 2012

   By the District Director, San Francisco Office, Western Region,
   Enforcement Bureau:

    1. This is a Notice of Violation (Notice) issued pursuant to Section 1.89
       of the Commission's rules (Rules), to Rolando Collantes, registrant of
       antenna structure # 1015726 in Tulare, California. Pursuant to Section
       1.89(a) of the Rules, issuance of this Notice does not preclude the
       Enforcement Bureau from further action if warranted, including issuing
       a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture for the violation(s)
       noted herein.

    2. On June 6, 2012, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's San Francisco
       Office attempted to inspect antenna structure # 1015726 located at the
       SW Corner of Paige RD & CA RT 99, Tulare, California and observed the
       following violation:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S: 17.57: "The owner of an antenna structure of which an
        Antenna Structure Registration Number has been obtained must notify
        the Commission within 24 hours of completion of dismantlement (FCC
        Form 854). The owner must also immediately notify the Commission
        using FCC Form 854 upon any change in ownership information." At the
        time of inspection the agent observed that the tower had been
        dismantled and that no FCC Form 854 was filed for the tower structure
        1015726.

    3. 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 violations and any remedial actions taken.
       Therefore, Rolando Collantes must submit a written statement
       concerning this matter within twenty (20) days of release of this

       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
       Rolando Collantes to support his response to this Notice with an
