The FCC announced that Sergio Plasencia has entered into a Consent Decree to resolve his issue with The FCC, close down his illegal operation and pay a slap-on-the-wrist fine of $2,680. Plasenia was broadcasting at 101.9 and 107.3 in Miami.
To put the issue behind him, Plasencia admits that he operated an unauthorized radio station, will not operate one in the future and will pay the $2,680 civil penalty. However, Mr. Plasencia will pay an additional civil penalty of $17,320 if the Commission finds that he operates an unauthorized radio station during the next twenty years or that he misled the Commission regarding his current financial status.
