    1. On September 28, 2004, the Federal Communications Commission's 
(Commission) Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau) began its 
license audit of the operational status all site-specific licenses 
authorized in the Paging and Radiotelephone Service, part 22, subpart 
E, and site-specific licenses authorized on private carrier paging 
exclusive channels in the 929-930 MHz band, part 90, subpart P.
    2. Every licensee holding authorizations in the above radio 
services must respond and certify, by November 12, 2004, that its 
authorized station(s) has not permanently discontinued operations from 
the date of initial constriction and operation pursuant to 47 CFR 
22.317.
    3. Audit letters were mailed to the licensees at their address of 
record. If a licensee received more than one audit letter, they must 
respond to each letter sent by the Commission in order to account for 
all of its call signs that are part of the audit. Licensees can use the 
Audit Search at http://wireless.fcc.gov/licensing/audits/paging to 
determine if a particular call sign is part of the audit. If the Audit 
Search shows a letter was mailed, the licensee is required to respond 
to the audit even though the audit letter was not received. For 
instructions on how to proceed in this instance, licensees should call 
the Commission at 717-338-2888 or 888-CALLFCC (888-225-5322) and select 
option 2.
    4. The process for responding to the audit was included in the 
audit letter. A response is mandatory and must be submitted 
electronically by November 12, 2004. Failure to provide a timely 
response may result in the Commission presuming that the station(s) has 
permanently discontinued operations as described under 47 CFR 22.317, 
and thus the license may be presumed to have automatically cancelled. 
Failure to provide a timely response may also result in an enforcement 
action, including monetary forfeiture, pursuant to section 503(b)(1)(B) 
of the Communications Act and 47 CFR 1.80(a)(2).

Federal Communications Commission.
Linda Chang,
Associate Chief, Mobility Division.
