   Released: July 10, 2013

   By the District Director, Dallas 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 TELNS Broadcasting Company,
       Inc., owner of proposed antenna structure numbers 1236170, 1236177 and
       1236182, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Pursuant to Section 1.89(a) of
       the Rules, issuance of this NOV 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 13, 2013, an agent of the Commission's Dallas Office inspected
       the locations registered to antenna structure numbers 1236170, 1236177
       and 1236182, in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, and observed the following
       violation(s):.

     a. 47 C.F.R. S 17.57:" The owner of an antenna structure for which an
        Antenna Structure Registration Number has been obtained must notify
        the Commission within 24 hours of completion of construction (FCC
        Form 854-R) and/or dismantlement (FCC Form 854). The owner must also
        immediately notify the Commission using FCC Form 854 upon any change
        in structure height or change in ownership information." TELNS
        Broadcasting, Inc. registered proposed antenna structure numbers
        1236170, 1236177 and 1236182 and notified the Commission that
        construction of the structures had been completed. As of June 28,
        2013, the Antenna Structure Registration (ASR) database shows that
        antenna structure numbers 1236170, 1236177, and 1236182 have been
        constructed. During the inspection, it was determined that the
        structures were not constructed. The owner must terminate the
        registrations for all three structures.

    3. Pursuant to Section 403 of the Communications Act of 1934, as
       amended,^ and Section 1.89 of the Rules, we seek additional

       for completion of any pending corrective action(s). The response must
       be complete in itself  and must not be abbreviated by reference to
