MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

By the Deputy Chief, Enforcement Bureau:
1. We deny the Petition for Reconsideration filed by Walter Olenick and M. Rae Nadler-
Olenick
1
seeking reconsideration of the Forfeiture Order
2
in this proceeding.  In the Forfeiture Order, the 
Enforcement Bureau imposed a $15,000 penalty on Mr. and Mrs. Olenick for operating an unlicensed 
radio station in Austin, Texas, in violation of Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as 
amended (Act).
3
2. Upon review of the Petition for Reconsideration and the entire record, we conclude that 
Mr. and Mrs. Olenick failed to comply with the requirements of Section 1.106 of the Commission’s rules
(Rules).
4
  In particular, the Petition for Reconsideration relies on arguments that have been fully 
considered and rejected by the Enforcement Bureau in the Forfeiture Order.
5
  The Enforcement Bureau
properly decided the matters raised, and we therefore affirm the Forfeiture Order for the reasons stated 
therein.
3. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 405 of the Act and Section 
1.106 of the Rules,
6
the Petition for Reconsideration filed by Walter Olenick and M. Rae Nadler-Olenick
is hereby DENIED, and the Forfeiture Order IS AFFIRMED.
4. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Act and Sections 
0.111, 0.311, and 1.80 of the Rules,
7
Walter Olenick and M. Rae Nadler-Olenick ARE JOINTLY AND 
SEVERALLY LIABLE FOR A MONETARY FORFEITURE in the amount of fifteen thousand 
dollars ($15,000) for willful and repeated violations of Section 301 of the Act.
