    1. In this Order, we adopt the attached Consent Decree entered into
       between the Enforcement Bureau (Bureau) and NVT Portland Licensee, LLC

       Decree that resolve this matter, including a detailed, three-year

       adopting the Consent Decree and terminating the investigation.

    4. In the absence of material new evidence relating to this matter, we
       conclude that our investigation raises no substantial or material
       questions of fact as to whether the Licensee possesses the basic
       qualifications, including those related to character, to hold or
       obtain any Commission license or authorization.

    5. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Sections  4(i), 4(j), and
       503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and Sections
       0.111 and 0.311 of the Rules, the Consent Decree attached to this
       Order IS ADOPTED.

       the Station and/or the Licensee, IS TERMINATED.

       against the Station and/or the Licensee before the Enforcement Bureau
       related to the above-captioned investigation as of the date of this

    8. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order and Consent Decree

   II. BACKGROUND

    3. Pursuant to Section 73.1216 of the Rules, a broadcast licensee "that
       broadcasts or advertises information about a contest it conducts shall
       fully and accurately disclose the material terms of the contest, and
       shall conduct the contest substantially as announced or advertised."
       The Commission received a complaint, dated February 2, 2010,  alleging
       that the Station conducted a contest that violated Section 73.1216 of
       the Commission's rules. Specifically, the Complainant alleges that the
       Station failed to deliver a prize to the declared winner of a "man
       cave makeover" contest that the Station conducted and promoted.  The
       Complainant further alleges that even though he was declared the
       winner of the contest and had not violated any Station guidelines
       relating to contest voting, the Station nonetheless voided the contest
       after it conducted an investigation into the validity of contest
       voting.

    4. In response to the Complaint, the Bureau's Investigations and Hearings
       Division sent a Letter of Inquiry to NVT Portland dated June 25, 2012.
       In its Response to the Letter of Inquiry, NVT Portland did not dispute
       that it conducted the contest described in the Complaint.  NVT
       Portland also acknowledged that the Station did not broadcast the
       material terms of the contest rules (as required by the Commission's
       rules), but directed viewers to the Station's website where it had
       posted the official rules. In justifying its decision to void the
       contest, the Licensee explained that one of the contest finalists (not
       the Complainant) had contacted the Station to admit that he had used a
       vote-generating computer program to artificially inflate the number of
       votes cast for his entry.  The Station launched an investigation to
       determine the extent to which electronic tampering may have skewed the
       results of the contest voting. After its investigation, the Station
       decided to cancel the contest and not award any prizes.

   III. TERMS OF AGREEMENT

    5. Adopting Order.  The Parties agree that the provisions of this Consent
       Decree shall be subject to final approval by the Bureau by
       incorporation of such provisions by reference in the Adopting Order.

    6. Jurisdiction. NVT Portland agrees that the Bureau has jurisdiction
       over it and the matters contained in this Consent Decree and that the
       Bureau has the authority to enter into and adopt this Consent Decree.

    7. Effective Date; Violations. The Parties agree that this Consent Decree
       shall become effective on the Effective Date as defined herein. As of
       the Effective Date, the Adopting Order and this Consent Decree shall
       have the same force and effect as any other order of the Commission.
       Any violation of the Adopting Order or of the terms of this Consent
       Decree shall constitute a separate violation of a Commission order,
       entitling the Commission to exercise any rights and remedies attendant
       to the enforcement of a Commission order.

    8. Termination of Investigation.  In express reliance on the covenants
       and representations in this Consent Decree and to avoid further
       expenditure of public resources, the Bureau agrees to terminate the
       Investigation. In consideration for the termination of the
       Investigation, NVT Portland agrees to the terms, conditions, and
       procedures contained herein. The Bureau further agrees that in the
       absence of new material evidence, the Bureau will not use the facts
       developed in this Investigation through the Effective Date, or the
       existence of this Consent Decree, to institute on its own motion any
       new proceeding, formal or informal, or take any action on its own
       motion against NVT Portland concerning the matters that were the
       subject of the Investigation. The Bureau also agrees that in the
       absence of new material evidence it will not use the facts developed
       in the Investigation through the Effective Date, or the existence of
       this Consent Decree, to institute on its own motion any proceeding,

       as defined herein. NVT Portland shall retain the right to challenge
       Commission interpretation of the Consent Decree or any terms contained

   17. Liability. NVT Portland admits, solely for the purpose of this Consent
       Decree and for Commission civil enforcement purposes, and in express
       reliance on the provisions of paragraph 8 hereof, that the broadcast
       material at issue in this Consent Decree is in violation of 47 C.F.R.
       S: 73.1216, assuming construction of these terms as they are construed
       by the Bureau as of the date hereof. Notwithstanding any other
       provision of this Consent Decree, it is expressly agreed and
       understood that if this Consent Decree, or paragraph 8 hereof, or
       both, are breached by the Bureau, or are invalidated or modified to
       NVT Portland's prejudice by the Commission, Bureau, or any court, then
       and in that event the provisions of the immediately-preceding sentence
       shall be of no force or effect whatever, and NVT Portland shall not,
       by virtue of that sentence or any other provision of this Consent
       Decree, be deemed to have made any admission concerning violations of
       47 C.F.R. S: 73.1216.

   18. Invalidity. In the event that this Consent Decree in its entirety is
       rendered invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, it shall
       become null and void and may not be used in any manner in any legal
       proceeding.

   19. Subsequent Rule or Order. The Parties agree that if any provision of
       the Consent Decree conflicts with any subsequent rule or order adopted
       by the Commission (except an order specifically intended to revise the
       terms of this Consent Decree to which NVT Portland does not expressly
       consent) that provision will be superseded by such rule or Commission
       order.

   20. Successors and Assigns. NVT Portland agrees that the provisions of
       this Consent Decree shall be binding on its successors, assigns, and
       transferees.

   21. Final Settlement. The Parties agree and acknowledge that this Consent
       Decree shall constitute a final settlement between the Parties with
       respect to the Investigation.

   22. Modifications. This Consent Decree cannot be modified without the
       advance written consent of both Parties.

   23. Paragraph Headings. The headings of the paragraphs in this Consent
       Decree are inserted for convenience only and are not intended to
       affect the meaning or interpretation of this Consent Decree.

   24. Authorized Representative. The individual signing this Consent Decree
       on behalf of NVT Portland represents and warrants that he is
       authorized by NVT Portland to execute this Consent Decree and to bind
       NVT Portland to the obligations set forth herein. The FCC signatory
