MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Adopted: August 30, 2006 Released: September 1, 2006
By the Chief, Spectrum Enforcement Division, Enforcement Bureau:
1. In this Memorandum Opinion and Order ("Order"), we rescind, on our own
motion, a four thousand dollar ($4,000) Forfeiture Order issued to
Gilmore Broadcasting Corporation ("Gilmore"). On June 5, 2006, the
Spectrum Enforcement Division ("Division") issued a Notice of Apparent
Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL") in the amount of $4,000 to Gilmore.
On August 21, 2006, the Division issued a Forfeiture Order affirming
the forfeiture proposed by the NAL. Commission records at that time
indicated that Gilmore had not filed a response to the NAL or
submitted payment of the forfeiture. After the release of the
Forfeiture Order, counsel for Gilmore contacted the Division's staff
stating that Gilmore had paid the forfeiture. Counsel submitted a copy
of a $4,000 check sent to the Commission date-stamped June 23, 2006.
The payment included the NAL/Acct. No. and FRN No. referenced above.
We conclude that Gilmore has presented valid proof of payment of the
forfeiture.
2. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Sections 0.111, 0.311 and
1.113 of the Rules, the Forfeiture Order issued to Gilmore
Broadcasting Corporation on August 21, 2006 IS RESCINDED.
3. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order shall be sent by first
class mail and certified mail return receipt requested to counsel for
Gilmore Broadcasting Corporation, Martha E. Heller, Esq., Wiley Rein &
Fielding LLP, 1776 K Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006.
