| E7-11808 | Increase of Forfeiture Maxima for Obscene, Indecent, and Profane Broadcasts to Implement the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act of 2005 | Rule | This document amends the Commission's Rules to increase the maximum forfeiture penalties for obscene, indecent, and profane broadcasts from $32,500 to $325,000 for each violation or each day of a continuing violation, except that the amount assessed for any continuing violation cannot exceed $3,000,000. This action is necessary to implement The Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act of 2005, signed into law by President George W. Bush on June 15, 2006. This document is limited to revising the Commission's Rules pursuant to the Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act, which concerns only penalties for obscenity, indecency, and profanity broadcast violations. The existing penalty limits described in the Commission's Rules would remain as the applicable maxima for all other broadcast violations subject to those Rules. | 2007-06-20 | 2007 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/06/20/E7-11808/increase-of-forfeiture-maxima-for-obscene-indecent-and-profane-broadcasts-to-implement-the-broadcast | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-06-20/pdf/E7-11808.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | This document amends the Commission's Rules to increase the maximum forfeiture penalties for obscene, indecent, and profane broadcasts from $32,500 to $325,000 for each violation or each day of a continuing violation, except that the amount assessed... |
