LICENSING AND REGULATION Sample Clauses

LICENSING AND REGULATION. The following is a brief discussion of certain provisions of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Communications Act"), and of FCC regulations and policies that affect the business operations of television broadcasting stations. Reference should be made to the Communications Act, FCC rules and the public notices and rulings of the FCC, on which this discussion is based, for further information concerning the nature and extent of FCC regulation of television broadcasting stations. License Renewal, Assignments and Transfers. Television broadcast licenses are granted for a maximum term of eight years (five years prior to 1996) and are subject to renewal upon application to the FCC. The FCC prohibits the assignment of a license or the transfer of control of a broadcast license without prior FCC approval. In determining whether to grant or renew a broadcast license, the FCC considers a number of factors pertaining to the applicant, including compliance with a variety of ownership limitations and compliance with character and technical standards. During certain limited periods when a renewal application is pending, petitions to deny a license renewal may be filed by interested parties, including members of the public. Such petitions may raise various issues before the FCC. The FCC is required to hold evidentiary, trial-type hearings on renewal applications if a petition to deny renewal of such license raises a "substantial and material question of fact" as to whether the grant of the renewal application would be inconsistent with the public interest, convenience and necessity. The FCC must grant the renewal application if, after notice and opportunity for a hearing, it finds that the incumbent has served the public interest and has not committed any serious violation of FCC requirements. If the incumbent fails to meet that standard, and if it does not show other mitigating factors warranting a lesser sanction, the FCC has authority to deny the renewal application and consider a competing application. Failure to observe FCC rules and policies, including, but not limited to, those discussed above, can result in the imposition of various sanctions, including monetary forfeitures, the grant of short-term license renewals or, for particularly egregious violations, the denial of a license renewal application or revocation of a license.
