The Christian Heritage Broadcasting application is not substantially complete, which renders it unacceptable and subject to dismissal. The deficiencies are as follows: Christian Heritage Broadcasting did not include a radiation hazard study as an exhibit to its application. Item 28 of FCC Form 312 indicates that a radiation hazard study must accompany all applications as an exhibit for new transmitting facilities such as the one proposed." ‘ The conventional Ku—band encompasses the 11.7 — 12.2 MHz and 14.0—14.5 frequency bands. * If Christian Heritage Broadcasting refiles an application identical to the one dismissed, with the exception of supplying the corrected information, it need not pay an application fee. See 47 C.F.R. § 1L.1111(d). 3 47 C.FR. § 1.1307(b).
