                              NOTICE OF VIOLATION

   Released: May 16, 2014

   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 CC Licenses, LLC, licensee of
       radio stations KTSM(AM), KTSM-FM, KHEY(AM), KHEY-FM and KPRR-FM in El
       Paso, Texas. 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 29, 2014, an agent of the Enforcement Bureau's Dallas Office
       observed the following violation(s):

     a. 47 C.F.R. S 11.52(d)(2):  "Emergency Alert System (EAS) participants
        must comply with the following monitoring requirement: With respect
        to monitoring EAS messages formatted in accordance with the
        specifications set forth in S 11.56(a)(2), EAS Participants' EAS
        equipment must interface with the Federal Emergency Management
        Agency's Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) to
        enable... the distribution of Common Alert Protocol (CAP)-formatted
        alert messages from the IPAWS system to EAS Participants' EAS
        equipment."  Stations KTSM(AM), KTSM-FM, KHEY(AM), KHEY-FM and
        KPRR-FM are co-located and co-owned stations sharing EAS equipment in
        El Paso, Texas. At the time of the inspection, when all of the
        stations were in operation, the stations had new CAP-formatted
        equipment installed in the rack, but the equipment was not connected
        to any other equipment and was not operational.

    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, CC Licenses, LLC 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 CC Licenses,
       LLC to support its response to this Notice with an affidavit or
       declaration under penalty of perjury, signed and dated by an
       authorized officer of CC Licenses, LLC with personal knowledge of the
       representations provided in CC Licenses, LLC'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
