In re:

K216GA, Chanute, KS
Facility ID No. 150677
Silent since June 1, 2015
Request for Special Temporary
Authority to Remain Silent

Dear Mr. Parrish:
This letter concerns the request you filed on June 10, 2015, on behalf of Edgewater Broadcasting,
Inc. ("EB"), for Special Temporary Authority ("STA") to permit FM Translator Station K2160A to
remain silent.
EB 's request states that Station K2 1 6GA went silent on June 1, 2015, for technical reasons. The
request includes the appropriate certification regarding Section 5301 of the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of
1988.1
EB's request is granted. Accordingly, Special Temporary Authority is granted to permit Station
K216GA to remain silent not to exceed 180 days from the date of this letter. Notwithstanding the grant
of this Special Temporary Authority, the broadcast license for Station K216GA will automatically
expire as a matter of law if broadcast operations do not resume by 12:01 a.m., June 2,2016.2
EB is required to notify the Commission when broadcast operations resume. If EB does not file
the notification of resumption of operations in a timely manner, the license may be subject to cancellation
pursuant to Section 312(g) of the Communications Act, as amended.3
The station's silent status does not suspend the licensee's obligation to comply with all other
relevant Commission rules, including the filing, when appropriate, of applications for renewal of
broadcast license. It is imperative to the safety of air navigation that any prescribed painting and
illumination of the station's tower shall be maintained until removed.4
Sincerely,
VI.-?

Assistant Chief, Audio Division
