Canadian Broadcasting Corporation

Wabowden, Manitoba - 920152600
|
Pursuant to Public Notice CRTC 1992-41 dated 8 June 1992, the Commission approves the application to amend the broadcasting licence for radio programming undertaking CBW Winnipeg (the originating station), by authorizing the licensee to add a transmitter at Wabowden, operating on frequency 90.5 MHz, with an effective radiated power of 66 watts.
|
The CBC has indicated that it intends to shut down CBWB Wabowden, shortly after the new FM transmitter becomes operational.
|
The Department of Communications (DOC) has advised the Commission that this application is conditionally technically acceptable, and that a Broadcasting Certificate will only be issued once it has been determined that the transmitter's proposed technical parameters will not create any unacceptable interference with aeronautical NAV/COM services.
|
In accordance with subsection 22(1) of the Broadcasting Act, the Commission will only issue the licence amendment, and the authority granted herein may only be implemented, at such time as written notification is received from the DOC that its technical requirements have been met, and that a Broadcasting Certificate will be issued.
|
This approval is subject to the requirement that construction of the transmitting facilities be completed and that they be in operation within twelve months of the date of this decision or, where the licensee applies to the Commission and satisfies the Commission that it cannot complete implementation before the expiry of this period and that an extension is in the public interest, within such further periods of time as may be approved in writing by the Commission.
|
Should the Commission refuse to approve an extension of time requested by the licensee, the authority granted shall lapse and become null and void upon the termination of the last approved extension period.
