Extension of the time limit to implement a new community-based campus FM radio station in Abbotsford

  The Commission approves an application by UCFV Campus and Community Radio Society for an extension to 6 September 2010 of the time limit to implement a new community-based campus FM radio station in Abbotsford.
 

Introduction

1.

The Commission received an application by UCFV Campus and Community Radio Society for an extension of the time limit to implement the new English-language community-based campus FM radio programming undertaking in Abbotsford approved in Broadcasting Decision 2006-70. The Commission received an intervention in support of this application.

2.

The applicant requested an extension until 6 September 2010. The applicant stated that the current request for an extension is necessary in order to pursue a frequency exchange with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC). The applicant indicated that it intended to submit an application for a frequency exchange with the CBC that would allow both parties to address issues of unacceptable interference for their respective radio stations.
 

Commission's analysis and determinations

3.

The Commission notes that approval of the application would result in a third extension of the time limit to implement the service for a total of 30 months. The Commission's standard practice is to grant a maximum of two extensions for a total of up to 24 months. The Commission notes that previous extensions have been granted to allow the applicant to seek technical parameters acceptable to the Commission and to the Department of Industry.

4.

In light of all of the above, the Commission approves the application by UCFV Campus and Community Radio Society for an extension to 6 September 2010 of the time limit to implement the new English-language community-based campus FM radio programming undertaking in Abbotsford.
