Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality with

Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No

Needs and Uses: 47 CFR 73.1870 

requires that the licensee of an AM, FM, 

or TV broadcast station designate a chief 

operator of the station. Section 

73.1870(b)(3) requires that this 

designation must be in writing and 

posted with the station license. Section 

73.1870(c)(3) requires that the chief 

operator, or personnel delegated and 

supervised by the chief operator, review 

the station records at least once each 

week to determine if required entries are 

being made correctly, and verify that the 

station has been operated in accordance 

with FCC rules and the station 

authorization. Upon completion of the 

review, the chief operator must date and 

sign the log, initiate corrective action 

which may be necessary and advise the 

station licensee of any condition which 

is repetitive. The posting of the 

designation of the chief operator is used 

by interested parties to readily identify 

the chief operator. The review of the 

station records is used by the chief 

operator, and FCC staff in 

investigations, to ensure that the station 

is operating in accordance with its 

station authorization and the FCC rules 

and regulations.
