File No. BR-20130604ACN

Dear Applicant:

Pursuant to 47 C.F.R. Section 1.19 10, the Commission examines applications to determine if the
applicant is delinquent in any non-tax debt owed to the Commission.' On July 2, 2015, the applicant was
notified that it was delinquent on the payment of debts owed to the Federal Communications
Commission.2 The Red Light Letter indicated that if full payment or satisfactory arrangement to pay the
delinquent debt was not made within 30 days of the date of the letter, the application or other request for
benefit would be dismissed. The staff received no response to the Red Light Letter, although on July 9,
2015, applicant's listed counsel notified the staff by e-mail that he did not represent the applicant during
the filing of the referenced application and no longer represents that applicant.
On December 5, 2016, the staff attempted to notif' the applicant of its debt delinquency, but its
voicemail was full. That same day, the staff notified applicant's new counsel of applicant's debt
delinquency.
The Commission has not received payment of the debts identified in the red light letter, nor have
satisfactory payment arrangements been made. Accordingly, pursuant to Sections 1.191 0(b)(3) and 0.2 83
of the Commission's Rules,3 Application File No. BR-20130604ACN, IS HEREBY DISMISSED. Any
questions regarding this dismissal should be directed to the CORES Help Desk at 1-877-480-3201,
Option 4, or via e-mail to: ARINQUIMESfcc.gov .
Additionally, in light of the dismissal of the subject license renewal application, all authority to
operate station KEVA(AM), Evanston, Wyoming, IS TERMINATED, the license (File No. BL19871007AG), most recently renewed by Application File No. BR-20050531BEZ, IS HEREBY
See Amendment of Parts 0 and 1 of the Commission 's Rules - Implementation of the Debt Collection Improvement
Act of 1996 andAdoption of Rules Governing Applications or Requests for Benefits by Delinquent Debtors, 19 FCC
Red. 6540 (2004). For the purpose of determining if an applicant is delinquent the Commission checks the status of
all entities with whom an applicant shares the same tax payer identification number.

the tower where the referenced station's transmitting antenna is located must maintain the tower in the
manner prescribed by the Commission's rules and the terms of the expired license.4
