Diablo Audubon Society's Response To The COVID-19 Pandemic In light of the Stay-at-Home Order instituted for the State of California, Mt. Diablo Audubon Society has canceled all field trips and meetings from March 17 through April 7, and the May monthly program. If the timing of this order changes, we will reassess the situation and send another message. Please check our website and our Facebook page for updates. While we are disappointed to not be able to share our love of birds with you all through our field trips and meetings, we are going to spend this time getting to know our local birds. Here are some tips from the National Audubon on how to enjoy backyard birds. Stay safe and well and we look forward to hearing about all your cool backyard birds later this year! Presidents' Letter Maren Smith & Ariana Rickard, MDAS Co-Presidents These are unprecedented times, and by the time this newsletter reaches your inbox, there may be more closures, precautions, and safeguards in place. The MDAS Board voted to cancel the April meeting due to guidelines available at that time, but in short time, with the State of California Stay-at-Home Order and CDC recommendations, we have also canceled the May monthly program and all field trips through April 7. Any MDAS news will be posted on the website at www. mtdiablo audubon .org, on MDAS social media, through Mailchimp emails, and in The Quail.

Roberts a/k/a “Monkey Man” a/k/a “Monkey” (“Roberts”) in San Francisco, California, for willfully and repeatedly violating section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“Act”), by operating an unlicensed radio broadcast station.1 II. BACKGROUND 2. Roberts is the operator of Pirate Cat Radio (“PCR”) which operated a radio broadcast station without a license issued by the FCC on 87.9 MHz in San Francisco, California. Roberts is also the executive of the Pirate Cat Café and Studio located at 2781 21st Street, San Francisco, California. In 2008, Roberts began operating PCR from a radio studio located at the Pirate Cat Café and Studio. At the time the NAL was issued, the PCR website (www.piratecatradio.com) prominently featured Roberts, and PCR described itself as an “unlicensed low powered community radio” located at the same address as the Pirate Cat Café and Studio.2 The Enforcement Bureau’s San Francisco Office issued numerous warnings and Notices of Unlicensed Operation (“NOUOs”) to Roberts and PCR concerning unlicensed radio operations, which detailed the potential penalties for operating an unlicensed radio station and for further violations of the Act and the Commission’s rules (“Rules”).3 3.
