FILING INSTRUCTIONS
Broadcast station licensees are required to afford equal employment opportunity to all qualified persons and to refrain from
discriminating in employment and related benefits on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, and sex. See 47 C.F.R.
Section 73.2080. Pursuant to these requirements, a license renewal applicant whose station employment unit employs five or more
full-time station employees must file a report of its activities to ensure equal employment opportunity. If a station employment unit
employs fewer than five full-time employees, no equal employment opportunity program information need be filed. If a station
employment unit is filing a combined report, a copy of the report must be filed with each station's renewal application.
A copy of this report must be kept in the station's public file. These actions are required to obtain license renewal. Failure to meet
these requirements may result in sanctions or license renewal being delayed or denied. These requirements are contained in 47
C.F.R. Section 73.2080 and are authorized by the Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
DISCRIMINATION COMPLAINTS. Have any pending or resolved complaints been filed during this
license term before any body having competent jurisdiction under federal, state, territorial or local law,
