                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: July 1, 2013

   By the District Director, Atlanta 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 (Rules)^ to Georgia Eagle Media, Inc.,
       licensee of AM radio Station WRWR (Station), Warner Robins, Georgia.
       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 May 23, 2013, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's Atlanta Office
       inspected the main studio for AM Station WRWR,  and observed the
       following violation(s):

     a. 47 C.F.R. S 47 C.F.R. S 11.56: "Obligation to process [Common
        Alerting Protocol] CAP-formatted EAS messages. (a) On or by June 30,
        2012, EAS Participants must have deployed operational equipment that
        is capable of the following: (1) Acquiring EAS alert messages in
        accordance with the monitoring requirements in S11.52(d)(2); (2)
        Converting EAS alert messages that have been formatted pursuant to
        the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information
        Standards (OASIS) Common Alerting Protocol..." During the inspection,
        Station WRWR did not have the required CAP-formatted EAS equipment
        installed.

     b. 47 C.F.R. S 11.52 (d): "EAS Participants must comply with the
        following monitoring requirements: (1) With respect to monitoring for
        EAS messages that are formatted in accordance with the EAS Protocol,
        EAS Participants must monitor two EAS sources. The monitoring
        assignments of each broadcast station and cable system and wireless
        cable system are specified in the State EAS Plan and FCC Mapbook."
        During the inspection, AM Station WRWR was only monitoring one EAS
        source.

     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
        for each calendar quarter is to be filed by the tenth day of the
        succeeding calendar quarter (e.g., January 10 for the quarter
        October-December, April 10 for the quarter January-March, etc.). The
        list shall include a brief narrative describing what issues were
        given significant treatment and the programming that provided this
        treatment. The description of the programs shall include, but shall
        not be limited to, the time, date, duration, and title of each
        program in which the issue was treated." During the inspection,
        Station WRWR was missing issues/programs lists for the 1^st quarter
        of 2013 and the 3^rd and 4^th quarters of 2012.

    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. We also must investigate
       violations of other rules that apply to broadcast 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.

       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.^

       Media, Inc.  to support its response to this Notice with an affidavit
