Re: Final Bid Withdrawal Payment on Auction 62 Construction Permit FMI85-A
(Whitehall, MT)
DO NOT DISCARD THIS IMPORTANT NOTICE
OF A DEMAND FOR PAYMENT
OF A DEBT OWED THE UNITED STATES AND ORDER OF PAYMENT
Dear Ms. Callahan-Murphy:
This Order provides notice and demands payment of a debt owed to the United States based on
Sheila Callahan and Friends, Inc.'s ("Callahan and Friends") withdrawal of a provisionally winning bid
placed during the course of Auction 62.
Callahan and Friends withdrew a provisionally winning bid during Auction 62 for FM Broadcast
construction permit FM185-A (Whitehall, MT).' Thus, pursuant to the Commission's rules,2 Callahan
and Friends owes a bid withdrawal payment, which is a debt owed to the United States.3 In 2006, the
Commission assessed Callahan and Friends an interim bid withdrawal payment of $ 1,560.00 from the
monies it had on deposit.4 FM Broadcast permit FM185-A (Whitehall, MT) was offered in a subsequent
auction of FM broadcast construction permits (Auction 91), and because it received a winning bid,5 the
Commission is now able to calculate Callahan and Friends' final bid withdrawal payment obligation
with respect to its withdrawn bid in Auction 62.6
