                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: February 5, 2013

   By the  District Director,  Denver 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  4-K's LLLP (4-K's), licensee
       of radio station KCKK  serving  Littleton, CO.   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 noted
       herein.^

    2. On December 19, 2012, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's Denver
       Office inspected radio station KCKK located at 975 Lincoln Street,
       Suite 201, in Denver, Colorado, and observed the following violation:

     a. 47 C.F.R. S 11.35(a): "EAS Participants are responsible for ensuring
        that EAS Encoders, EAS Decoders, Attention Signal generating and
        receiving equipment, and Intermediate Devices used as part of the EAS
        to decode and/or encode messages formatted in the EAS Protocol and/or
        the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) are installed so that the
        monitoring and transmitting functions are available during the times
        the stations and systems are in operation. Additionally, EAS
        Participants must determine the cause of any failure to receive the
        required tests or activations specified in S11.61(a)(1) and (2).
        Appropriate entries indicating reasons why any tests were not
        received must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in
        SS73.1820 and 73.1840 of this chapter for all broadcast streams." At
        the time of inspection, KCKK did not have records to indicate their
        equipment was receiving tests formatted with the Common Alerting
        Protocol (CAP). Additionally, there were no records to determine the
        cause of failure to receive the CAP tests.

    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 licensees.

    4. Pursuant to Section  308(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended,^ and Section 1.89 of the Rules, we seek additional
       information concerning the violations and any remedial actions taken.
       Therefore, 4-K's 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.^

    5. In accordance with Section 1.16 of the  Rules, we direct  4-K's to
       support its response to this Notice with an affidavit or declaration
       under penalty of perjury, signed and dated by an authorized officer of
       4-K's with personal knowledge of the representations provided in
       4-K's response, verifying the truth and accuracy of the information
       therein,^ and confirming that all of the information requested by this
       Notice which is in the licensee's possession, custody, control, or
       knowledge has 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.^

    6. All replies and documentation sent in response to this Notice should
       be marked with the File No. and NOV No. specified above, and mailed to
