FCC Enforcement Bureau issues statement on Enforcement Advisories

On January 15, 2010, Michele Ellison, Chief of the FCC Enforcement Bureau made a statement on the launch of a new initiative with respect to “Enforcement Advisories”.

This would seem to indicate that the FCC will be more aggressive with respect to enforcement moving forward, as evident by this quote from the statement;

“While most companies and individuals take their regulatory obligations seriously, some appear unaware of what the Commission’s rules require or choose not to comply. The Enforcement Bureau will continue to work proactively to bring these entities into compliance. By the actions we take today, we affirm our commitment to strong, vigorous, and fair enforcement of the Commission’s rules.”
