       Rico. 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 April 3 and 8, 2013, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's San Juan

       at the geographical coordinates of: 18-o 21' 40.0" N 066-o 08' 16.0"
       W, and observed the following violation(s):

     a. 47 C.F.R. S 73.49: "Antenna towers having radio frequency potential
        at the base must be enclosed within effective locked fences or other
        enclosures... However, individual tower fences need not be installed
        if the towers are contained within a protective property fence."
        While Station WKVM was on the air, the agent observed that none of
        the three antenna structures (antenna structure numbers 1011472,
        1011473, and 1011474) were enclosed within effective locked base
        fences or a protective property fence.

       amended,^ and Section 1.89 of the Rules, we seek additional

       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

       Apostolic & Roman Church in Puerto Rico to support its response to
