Decision

Ottawa, 26 April 1995

Decision CRTC 95-167

Coast Mountain Communications Inc.
Pemberton, British Columbia - 940878200

Licence renewal

Following Public Notice CRTC 1994-159 dated 23 December 1994, the Commission renews the licence held by Coast Mountain Communications Inc., for the cable distribution undertaking serving Pemberton, from 1 September 1995 to 31 August 2000.

The licence term granted herein, while less than the maximum of seven years permitted by the Broadcasting Act (the Act), will enable the Commission to consider the next licence renewal of this undertaking in accordance with the Commission's regional plan and to better distribute the workload within the Commission. This term is not reflective of any Commission concern regarding the licensee's performance.

The operation of this undertaking is regulated pursuant to Parts I and III of the Cable Television Regulations, 1986 and the licence will be subject to the conditions in effect under the current licence, as well as to those conditions specified in the licence to be issued.

In Public Notice CRTC 1992-59 dated 1 September 1992 and entitled "Implementation of an Employment Equity Policy", the Commission announced that the employment equity practices of broadcasters would be subject to examination by the Commission. In this regard, the Commission encourages the licensee to consider employment equity issues in its hiring practices and in all other aspects of its management of human resources.

In accordance with subsection 22(1) of the Act, this renewal is subject to the issuance of a Broadcasting Certificate by the Department of Industry, Science and Technology.

The Commission draws the licensee's attention to subsection 22(4) which provides that any broadcasting licence issued, amended or renewed in contravention of section 22 is of no force or effect.

Allan J. Darling
Secretary General
