Re:

KUOR-FM, Redlands, CA
University of Redlands
Facility Identification Number: 69217
Special Temporary Authority (STA)
BESTA-20160809AAW

Dear Licensee:
This is in reference to the request filed August 9, 2016, on behalf of the University of Redlands
(“UR”). UR requests an extension of the February 25, 2016 Special Temporary Authority (STA)
to operate from a temporary pole mounted on the transmitter building, such that the height of the
antenna radiation center remains 9 meters lower than the licensed value. In this way UR can
maintain KUOR-FM’s service until the replacement tower is constructed and licensed operation
can be restored.
Requests for extension of STA will be granted only where the licensee can show that one or more of
the following criteria have been met:
• Restoration of licensed facilities is complete and testing is underway;
• Substantial progress has been made during the most recent STA period toward restoration
of licensed operation; or
• No progress has been made during the most recent STA period for reasons clearly beyond
the licensee's control, and the licensee has taken all possible steps to expeditiously resolve
the problem.
Accordingly, the request for STA extension IS HEREBY GRANTED. Station KUOR-FM may
immediately commence operations as described in the STA request,
UR must notify the Commission when licensed operation is restored. UR must use whatever
means are necessary to protect workers and the public from radiofrequency exposure in excess of
the Commission's exposure guidelines. See 47 CFR § 1.1310.

This authority expires on February 21, 2017.
Sincerely,

Dale Bickel
Senior Engineer
