The FCC is conducting an audit of the construction and operational status of the Private Land Mobile Radio stations licensed on frequencies bellow 800 MHz that are subject to frequency coordination and rule-based construction and operational requirements. The scope of the audit, at this time, only affects stations in the PW, YW, IG and YG services.

As part of the audit, the FCC is sending letters which began on August 15, 2001, and will continue mailing these letters over a period of six months. The FCC is providing an attachment to the letters listing the licensee's call sign. You may receive more than one of these letters due to variation in licensee name, address, etc. The licensee must respond to each letter by the Commission in order to account for all of its call signs that are part of the audit. Licensees must provide true and complete responses, and may be subject to sanctions for misrepresentations or willful material omissions.

Licensees who fail to respond to the Commission's letter risk having their authorizations cancelled. Additionally, licensees who do not receive a letter from the Commission because they have not maintained a current address with the Commission also risk losing their authorization.

Licensees must respond to the Bureau's letter(s) within sixty (60) days of the date of the letter. The response must be mailed to: Federal Communications Commission, 2001 PLMR Spectrum Audit Responses, 1270 Fairfield Road, Gettysburg, PA 17325-7245.
