AM stations may, without prior Commission authority, commence MDCL control technology use, provided that within 10 days after commencing such operation, the licensee submits an electronic notification of commencement of MDCL control operation using FCC Form 338. The transmitter of an AM station operating using MDCL control technology, regardless of the MDCL control technology employed, must achieve full licensed power at some audio input level or when the MDCL control technology is disabled. MDCL control operation must be disabled before field strength measurements on the station are taken.

1052.222-70  Minority and Women Inclusion.

    As prescribed in 1022.7000, insert the following clause:

Minority and Women Inclusion (Jan 2016)

    (a) Contractor confirms its commitment to equal opportunity in 
employment and contracting. To implement this commitment, the 
Contractor shall ensure, to the maximum extent possible consistent 
with applicable law, the fair inclusion of minorities and women in 
its workforce. The Contractor shall insert the substance of this 
clause in all subcontracts awarded under this contract whose dollar 
value exceeds $150,000. Within ten business days of a written 
request from the Contracting Officer, or such longer time as the 
Contracting Officer determines, and without any additional 
consideration required from the Agency, the Contractor shall provide 
documentation, satisfactory to the Agency, of the actions it (and as 
applicable, its subcontractors) has undertaken to demonstrate its 
good faith effort to comply with the aforementioned provisions. For 
purposes of this contract, ``good faith effort'' may include actions 
by the Contractor intended to identify and, if present, remove 
barriers to minority and women employment or expansion of employment 
opportunities for minorities and women within its workforce. Efforts 
to remove such barriers may include, but are not limited to, 
recruiting minorities and women, providing job-related training, or 
other activity that could lead to those results.
    (b) The documentation requested by the Contracting Officer to 
demonstrate ``good faith effort'' may include, but is not limited 
to, one or more of the following--
    (1) The total number of Contractor's employees, and the number 
of minority and women employees, by race, ethnicity, and gender 
(e.g., an EEO-1);
    (2) A list of subcontract awards under the contract that 
includes: Dollar amount, date of award, and subcontractor's race, 
ethnicity, and/or gender ownership status;
    (3) Information similar to that required in paragraph (b)(1) of 
this clause, with respect to each subcontractor; and/or
    (4) The Contractor's plan to ensure that minorities and women 
have appropriate opportunities to enter and advance within its 
workforce, including outreach efforts.
    (c) Consistent with Section 342(c)(3) of the Dodd-Frank Wall 
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Pub. L. 111-203) (Dodd-
Frank Act), a failure to demonstrate to the Director of the Agency's 
Office of Minority and Women Inclusion such good faith efforts to 
include minorities and women in the Contractor's workforce (and as 
applicable, the workforce of its subcontractors), may result in 
termination of the contract for default, other contractual remedies, 
or referral to the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs 
(OFCCP). Compliance with this clause does not, however, necessarily 
satisfy the requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, nor 
does it preclude OFCCP compliance evaluations and/or enforcement 
actions undertaken pursuant to that Executive Order.
    (d) For purposes of this clause, the terms ``minority,'' 
``minority-owned business,'' and ``women-owned business'' shall have 
the meanings set forth in Section 342(g) of the Dodd-Frank Act.
