We approve these transfers of control because we find they are in the public interest, convenience, and necessity. See 47 U. S. C. § 310( d). By this approval, the parties are authorized to proceed to the final stages of their respective transactions. Section 1.948( d) of the Commission's rules provides that licensees are required to notify the Commission of consummation using a FCC Form 603. Transactions must be consummated and notification provided to the Commission within 180 days of this Public Notice and notification of consummation must occur no later than 30 days after actual consummation unless an extension has been requested. Hence, we remind parties that a transfer shall not be considered complete until the underlying transaction closes and all conditions set forth in the grant documents, including this Public Notice and the application, are met. Upon receipt of the notification required by Section 1.948( d) of the Commission's rules, and satisfaction of all requisite conditions, the Bureau will consider the assignment "complete." Failure of the parties to comply with Section 1.948( d) of the Commission's rules, or any specific condition described above, will result in automatic cancellation of the Commission's approval, and dismissal of the underlying applications.
