Exhibits
Exhibit 1
Description:
EXHIBIT 1

EDUCATIONAL MEDIA FOUNDATION ('EMF') RESPECTFULLY REQUEST SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY FOR STATION KARJ TO REMAIN SILENT. THE LANDLORD'S FUEL SUPPLY WAS INSUFFICIENT AND THE GENERATOR RAN OUT OF FUEL, FORCING KARJ OFF THE AIR. EMF HAS TRIED A VARIETY OF PLANS TO GET FUEL TO THE SITE, BUT NONE HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL TO DATE. PARTIES ARE NOT ABLE TO REACH THE SITE WITH FUEL DUE TO THE SNOW COVER. AS A RESULT, EMF REQUESTS THIS SPECIAL TEMPORARY AUTHORITY TO REMAIN SILENT UNTIL FUEL CAN BE DELIVERED TO THE SITE. GRANT OF THIS STA IS IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST AS IT WILL ALLOW EMF TO RETURN KARJ TO THE AIR PROVIDING THE CITIZENS OF KUNA WITH THE DESIRED SERVICE.
