Attached is the Public Notice with details.

The information above was shared with us by the OAB office. Thank you, Nancy!

WHO SHOULD FILE – As a reminder, all EAS Participants, with limited exceptions. are required to register and file in ETRS – including Low Power FM stations (LPFM), Class D non-commercial educational FM stations, and stations that are silent pursuant to a grant of Special Temporary Authority. The only broadcast exemptions are LPTV stations that operate as television broadcast translator stations, FM broadcast booster stations and FM translator stations that entirely rebroadcast the programming of other local FM broadcast stations, and analog and digital broadcast stations that operate as satellites or repeaters of a “hub” station (or common studio or control point if there is no hub station) and rebroadcast 100 percent of the programming of the hub station (the hub station itself of course having an obligation to file the form).
Thank you David Oxenford for providing this information.
