EAS Fine Cut for WMIR

EAS Fine Cut for WMIR

The FCC has sliced a $12,000 fine to $4,000 for Atlantic Beach Radio. The action stems from June 2002 when the agency levied the penalty against the licensee of WMIR(AM), Atlantic Beach, S.C. for failure to maintain operational Emergency Alert System equipment and for not lowering the power level at night. The commission cut the fine because the station bought its EAS encoder/decoder before the inspection, had a good overall compliance record previously and submitted financial record to document that it could not afford the larger amount.
