[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 47, Volume 2] [Revised as of October 1, 2003] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 47CFR21.11] [Page 29-31] TITLE 47--TELECOMMUNICATION CHAPTER I--FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (CONTINUED) PART 21--DOMESTIC PUBLIC FIXED RADIO SERVICES--Table of Contents Subpart B--Applications and Licenses Sec. 21.11 Miscellaneous forms. (a) Licensee qualifications. FCC Form 430 (``Licensee Qualification Report'') must be filed annually, no later than March 31 for the end of the preceding calendar year, unless the licensee operates solely on a common carrier basis and service was not offered at any time during the preceding year. Each annual filing must include all changes of information required by FCC Form 430 that occurred during the preceding year. In those cases in which there has been no change in any of the required information, the applicant or licensee, in lieu of submitting a new form, may so notify the Commission by letter. (b) Additional time to construct--FCC Form 701 (``Application for Additional [[Page 30]] Time to Construct Radio Station'') shall be filed in duplicate by a licensee prior to the expiration of the time for construction noted in a license if a licensee seeks to modify the license by extending the period of construction. (c) Renewal of station license. Except for renewal of special temporary authorizations, FCC Form 405 (``Application for Renewal of Station License'') must be filed in duplicate by the licensee between thirty (30) and sixty (60) days prior to the expiration date of the license sought to be renewed. Whenever a group of station licenses in the same radio service are to be renewed simultaneously, a single ``blanket'' application may be filed to cover the entire group, if the application identifies each station by call sign and station location and if two copies are provided for each station affected. Applicants should note also any special renewal requirements under the rules for each radio service. (d) Assignment of license. FCC Form 305 (``Application for Consent to Assignment of Radio Station Construction Authorization or License (for Stations in Services Other than Broadcast)'') must be submitted to assign voluntarily (as by, for example, contract or other agreement) or involuntarily (as by, for example, death, bankruptcy, or legal disability) the station license or conditional license. In the case of involuntary assignment, the application must be filed within 30 days of the event causing the assignment. FCC Form 305 also must be used for nonsubstantial (pro forma) assignments. In addition, FCC Form 430 must be submitted by the proposed assignee unless such assignee has a current and substantially accurate report on file with the Commission. Whenever a group of station licenses or conditional licenses in the same radio service is to be assigned to a single assignee, a single ``blanket'' application may be filed to cover the entire group, if the application identifies each station by call sign and station location and if two copies are provided for each station affected. The assignment must be completed within 45 days from the date of authorization. Upon consummation of an approved assignment, the Commission must be notified by letter of the date of consummation within 10 days of its occurrence. (e) Partial assignment of license. In the microwave services, authorization for assignment from one company to another of only a part or portions of the facilities (transmitters) authorized under an existing license (as distinguished from an assignment of the facilities in their entirety) may be granted upon application: (1) By the assignee on FCC Form 494 and (2) By the assignor on FCC Form 494 for deletion of the assigned facilities, indicating concurrence in the assignee's request. The assignment shall be consummated within 45 days from the date of authorization. In the event that consummation does not occur, FCC Form 494 shall be submitted to return the assignor's license to its original condition. Editorial Note: At 63 FR 65100, Nov. 25, 1999, paragraphs (f) and (g) were redesignated as paragraphs (e) and (f) and newly designated paragraph (e) was revised. However, paragraph (e) already exists. The text of the newly redesignated paragraph (e) follows. (e) Transfer of control of corporation holding a conditional license or license. FCC Form 306 (``Application for Consent to Transfer of Control'') must be submitted in order to voluntarily or involuntarily transfer control (de jure or de facto) of a corporation holding any conditional licenses or licenses. In the case of involuntary transfer of control, the application must be filed within 30 days of the event causing the transfer of control. FCC Form 306 also must be used for nonsubstantial (pro forma) transfers of control. In addition, FCC Form 430 must be submitted by the proposed transferee unless such transferee has a current and substantially accurate report on file with the Commission. Whenever control of a corporation holding a group of station licenses or conditional licenses in the same radio service is to be transferred to a single transferee, a single ``blanket'' application may be filed to cover the entire transfer, if the application identifies each station by call sign and station location and if two copies are provided for each station affected. The transfer must be completed within 45 [[Page 31]] days from the date of authorization. Upon consummation of an approved transfer, the Commission must be notified by letter of the date of consummation within 10 days of its occurrence. (f) Antenna Structure Registration. FCC Form 854 (Application for Antenna Structure Registration) accompanied by a final Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) determination of ``no hazard'' must be filed by the antenna structure owner to receive an antenna structure registration number. Criteria used to determine whether FAA notification and registration is required for a particular antenna structure are contained in Part 17 of this chapter.
