Question Response
Does the Licensee publicize the existence and location of the station's Children's Television Programming Reports (FCC 398) as required by 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3526(e)(11)(iii)? Yes
Name of children's programming liaison KEVIN C CREAMER

State OH
Zip 45805
Telephone Number (419) 228-8835
Email Address KEVIN@WLIO.COM
Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. On Friday, October 7, 2016, station personnel for Lima Communications Corporation, licensee of WLIO-TV, Lima, Ohio (Facility ID 37503) (the "station") filed the third quarter FCC Form for the station. Upon checking the online public inspection file for the station on October 11, 2016, station personnel determined that the Form 398 was missing from the online public inspection file and the FCC's Licensing and Management System (LMS). Station personnel attempted to refile the Form 398, but LMS was not properly functioning and did not provide an option to file a children's television programming report for WLIO-TV. Station personnel contacted technical support staff of the FCC and spoke with a technician about the issue. The technician assigned the matter case number 2859128. Out of abundance of caution, station personnel prepared a third quarter 398 using the paper form and timely uploaded a copy to the Station's online public inspection file on October 11, 2016. The FCC's technical support team resolved the LMS issue: therefore, station personnel filed the electronic copy of the 398 in LMS.
