Title: Section 101.17, Performance
Requirements for the 38.6–40.0 GHz
Frequency Band—(Note Title Change).
Form No.: N/A.
Estimated Annual Burden: 195
responses; 390 total annual burden
hours; $52,000.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
revising this information collection
because we have eliminated FCC Forms
415/415T from this collection because
the reporting requirements have been
incorporated into FCC Form 601 (OMB
Control No. 3060–0798). We also
removed Section 101.103 from this
collection because it is approved under
a separate OMB Control Number 3060–
0718. The only remaining rule in this
collection is Section 101.17, which
requires licensees on frequencies in the
38.6–40.0 GHz band to demonstrate
substantial performance when their
license terms expire, in order to renew
their licenses.
All 38.6–40.0 GHz band licensees
must demonstrate substantial service at
the time of license renewal. A licensee’s
substantial service showing should
include, but not be limited to, the
following information for each channel
for which they hold a license, in each
EA or portion of EA covered by their
license, in order to qualify for renewal
of that license. The information
provided will be judged by the
Commission to determine whether the
licensee is providing service that rises to
the level of ‘‘substantial’’: (1) A
description of the 38.6–40.0 GHz band
licensee’s current service in terms of
geographic coverage; (2) a description of
the 38.6–40.0 GHz band licensee’s
current service in terms of population
served, as well as any additional service
provided during the license term; and
(3) a description of the 38.6–40.0 GHz
band licensee’s investments in its
system(s) (type of facilities constructed
and their operational status is required).
Any 38.6–40.0 GHz band licensees
adjudged not to be providing substantial
service will not have their licenses
renewed.

Summary of the Order: In the Order
to Show Cause, Notice of Opportunity
for Hearing and Hearing Designation
Order, the Commission commences a
hearing proceeding to determine
whether Terry Keith Hammond, the
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
ADDRESSES:

licensee of Station KBKH(FM),
Shamrock, Texas, is qualified to be and
remain a Commission licensee, whether
Hammond’s application for renewal of
the license of Station KBKH(FM) should
be granted, and whether a monetary
forfeiture should be assessed against
Hammond.
The Commission received a complaint
that alleged, among other things, that
Hammond was not operating the station
in accordance with its authorization and
that Hammond had been convicted of
felony theft. The Commission
conducted an investigation and
inspection of Station KBKH(FM) which
revealed that the station is not operating
in accordance with the terms of its
license and that Hammond has not
requested authority to do so, thereby
violating Commission rules.
Specifically, the station is operating
from a site other than the site which is
authorized in its license and at a
reduced power level. In addition, the
investigation revealed that Hammond
failed to construct the station’s
upgraded facilities, but nevertheless
filed a license application in which he
apparently made false certifications,
misrepresentations of fact and/or
demonstrated a lack of candor. The
Commission directed Terry Keith
Hammond to respond to letters of
inquiry concerning his felony
conviction and the operation of Station
KBKH(FM), but he failed to provide full
and complete responses and documents.
During the pendency of the
investigation, Terry Keith Hammond
timely filed a license renewal
application for Station KBKH(FM) in
which he failed to disclose his felony
conviction.
The Commission determined that the
fact of Terry Keith Hammond’s felony
conviction raises a substantial and
material question of fact as to his
qualifications to be and to remain a
Commission licensee and may warrant
revocation of the license of Station
KBKH(FM). Thus, pursuant to Sections
312(a) and 312(c) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 312(a) and (c) and
§ 1.91 of the Commission’s rules, 47
CFR 1.91, the Order to Show Cause
directs Terry Keith Hammond to show
cause why the license of Station
KBKH(FM), Shamrock, Texas, should
not be revoked, upon the following
issues:
1. To determine the effect of Terry
Keith Hammond’s felony conviction on
his qualifications to be and remain a
Commission licensee;
2. To determine, in light of the
evidence adduced pursuant to the
foregoing issue, whether Terry Keith

Frm 00033
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Hammond is qualified to be and to
remain a Commission licensee and
whether the license for Station
KBKH(FM), Shamrock, Texas, should be
revoked. Moreover, the Commission
determined that there are substantial
and material questions of fact as to
whether Terry Keith Hammond may
have made false certifications,
misrepresented facts to or lacked candor
with the Commission regarding
construction of upgraded facilities for
Station KBKH(FM) and regarding his
criminal felony conviction.
Misrepresentation, lack of candor and
false certification are the types of
serious violations of the Commission’s
rules that may be grounds for denying
a license renewal application. In
addition, Terry Keith Hammond’s
operation of Station KBKH(FM)
substantially at variance with the terms
of its authorizations and other apparent
violations of the Commission’s rules,
including his failure to respond fully to
Commission inquiries, raise a
substantial and material question of fact
as to whether his application for
renewal of the Station KBKH(FM)
license should be granted and whether
his existing license should be revoked.
Thus, pursuant to Sections 309(e) and
309(k) of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 309(e), (k),
the Commission designated the
KBKH(FM) license renewal application
for an evidentiary hearing, specifying
the following issues:
3. To determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond made false certifications,
misrepresentations and/or lacked
candor in his License Upgrade
Application (File No. BLH–
20030122AEG, as amended), in
violation of § 73.1015 of the
Commission’s rules;
4. To determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond made false certifications,
misrepresentations and/or lacked
candor in his Renewal Application, in
violation of § 73.1015 of the
Commission’s rules (File No. BRH–
20050401AAA);
5. To determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond willfully and/or repeatedly
violated §§ 73.1350(a), 73.1560(b) and
(d) and/or 73.1745(a) of the
Commission’s rules, by operating
Station KBKH(FM) at a location, power
and antenna height that were not
authorized by the station’s license;
6. To determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond willfully and/or repeatedly
violated § 11.35 of the Commission’s
rules, by failing to maintain operational
EAS equipment and station logs
concerning EAS equipment and tests for
Station KBKH(FM);
E:\FR\FM\04OCN1.SGM
04OCN1
Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 192 / Wednesday, October 4, 2006 / Notices
7. To determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond willfully and/or repeatedly
violated § 73.1015 of the Commission’s
rules by failing to provide full and
complete responses and documents as
directed by letters of inquiry issued by
the staff of the Enforcement Bureau on
June 14, 2004, and August 10, 2004; and
8. To determine, in light of the
evidence adduced pursuant to the
foregoing designated issues, whether the
captioned application for renewal of the
license for Station KBKH(FM) should be
granted, or denied.
Copies of the Order to Show Cause,
Notice of Opportunity for Hearing, and
Hearing Designation Order are being
sent by certified mail, return receipt
requested, to Terry Keith Hammond. To
avail himself of the opportunity to be
heard, Terry Keith Hammond, pursuant
to § 1.91(c) and § 1.221 of the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.91(c) and
47 CFR 1.221, in person or by his
attorney, must within 30 days of the
release of this Order, file in triplicate a
written notice of appearance stating an
intention to appear on the date fixed for
the hearing and present evidence on the
issues specified in this Order. Terry
Keith Hammond pursuant to § 73.3594
of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR
73.3594, shall give notice of the hearing
within the time and in the manner
prescribed in 47 CFR 73.3594, and shall

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Agencies developed this
guidance to address risks associated
with the growing use of mortgage
products that allow borrowers to defer
payment of principal and, sometimes,
interest. These products, referred to
variously as ‘‘nontraditional’’,
‘‘alternative’’, or ‘‘exotic’’ mortgage
loans (hereinafter referred to as
nontraditional mortgage loans), include
‘‘interest-only’’ mortgages and ‘‘payment
option’’ adjustable-rate mortgages.
These products allow borrowers to
exchange lower payments during an
initial period for higher payments
during a later amortization period.
While similar products have been
available for many years, the number of
institutions offering them has expanded
rapidly. At the same time, these
products are offered to a wider spectrum
of borrowers who may not otherwise
qualify for more traditional mortgages.
The Agencies are concerned that some
borrowers may not fully understand the
risks of these products. While many of
these risks exist in other adjustable-rate
mortgage products, the Agencies
concern is elevated with nontraditional
products because of the lack of principal
amortization and potential for negative
amortization. In addition, institutions
are increasingly combining these loans
with other features that may compound
risk. These features include
simultaneous second-lien mortgages and
the use of reduced documentation in
evaluating an applicant’s
creditworthiness.
In response to these concerns, the
Agencies published for comment
proposed Interagency Guidance on
Nontraditional Mortgage Products, 70
FR 77249 (Dec. 29, 2005). The Agencies
proposed guidance in three primary
areas: ‘‘Loan Terms and Underwriting
Standards’’, ‘‘Portfolio and Risk
Management Practices’’, and ‘‘Consumer
Protection Issues’’. In the first section,
the Agencies sought to ensure that loan
terms and underwriting standards for

Summary of the Order: In the Order to Show Cause, Notice of
Opportunity for Hearing and Hearing Designation Order, the Commission
commences a hearing proceeding to determine whether Terry Keith
Hammond, the licensee of Station KBKH(FM), Shamrock, Texas, is
qualified to be and remain a Commission licensee, whether Hammond's
application for renewal of the license of Station KBKH(FM) should be
granted, and whether a monetary forfeiture should be assessed against
Hammond.
The Commission received a complaint that alleged, among other

The Commission conducted an investigation and inspection of Station

KBKH(FM), but he failed to provide full and complete responses and
documents. During the pendency of the investigation, Terry Keith
Hammond timely filed a license renewal application for Station KBKH(FM)
in which he failed to disclose his felony conviction.
The Commission determined that the fact of Terry Keith Hammond's
felony conviction raises a substantial and material question of fact as
to his qualifications to be and to remain a Commission licensee and may
warrant revocation of the license of Station KBKH(FM). Thus, pursuant
to Sections 312(a) and 312(c) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 312(a) and (c) and Sec. 1.91 of the Commission's

to show cause why the license of Station KBKH(FM), Shamrock, Texas,
should not be revoked, upon the following issues:
1. To determine the effect of Terry Keith Hammond's felony
conviction on his qualifications to be and remain a Commission
licensee;
2. To determine, in light of the evidence adduced pursuant to the
foregoing issue, whether Terry Keith Hammond is qualified to be and to
remain a Commission licensee and whether the license for Station
KBKH(FM), Shamrock, Texas, should be revoked. Moreover, the Commission
determined that there are substantial and material questions of fact as
to whether Terry Keith Hammond may have made false certifications,
misrepresented facts to or lacked candor with the Commission regarding
construction of upgraded facilities for Station KBKH(FM) and regarding
his criminal felony conviction. Misrepresentation, lack of candor and

KBKH(FM) substantially at variance with the terms of its authorizations
and other apparent violations of the Commission's rules, including his
failure to respond fully to Commission inquiries, raise a substantial
and material question of fact as to whether his application for renewal
of the Station KBKH(FM) license should be granted and whether his
existing license should be revoked.
