Broadcasting Decision CRTC 2002-170

Ottawa, 3 July 2002

Native Communication Inc.
Thompson and Pauingassi, Manitoba

Application 2001-1190-7
Public Notice CRTC 2002-8
18 February 2002

CINC-FM Thompson - New transmitter in Pauingassi

1.

The Commission approves the application by Native Communication Inc. to amend the broadcasting licence for the radio programming undertaking CINC-FM Thompson in order to operate a transmitter in Pauingassi.

2.

The new transmitter will operate at 93.5 MHz (channel 228LP), with an effective radiated power of 28.6 watts.

3.

No interventions were filed in connection with this application.

4.

The Department of Industry (the Department) has advised the Commission that, while this application is conditionally technically acceptable, it will only issue a broadcasting certificate when it has determined that the proposed technical parameters will not create any unacceptable interference with aeronautical NAV/COM services.

5.

The Commission reminds the licensee that, pursuant to section 22(1) of the Broadcasting Act, this authority will only be effective when the Department notifies the Commission that its technical requirements have been met, and that a broadcasting certificate will be issued.

6.

The transmitter must be operational at the earliest possible date, and in any event no later than 24 months of the date of this decision, unless a request for an extension of time is approved by the Commission before 3 July 2004. In order to ensure that such a request is processed in a timely manner, it should be submitted in writing at least 60 days before this date.

7.

Given that the technical parameters approved in this decision are for a low-power unprotected FM service, the Commission also reminds the licensee that it will have to select another frequency if the Department so requires.
