EEO ANNUAL REPORT August 1, 2021 to August 1, 2022 On March 10, 2003, the Federal Communications Commission instituted new EEO reporting and recordkeeping rules designed to track a station's recruitment and hiring practices. The rules required a posting of certain tabulations of those efforts on the station's website and in the Public File, which is maintained at the station's business location. Following is the required posting of hiring and recruitment procedures undertaken by KHUM-FM, KWPTFM, KSLG-FM and KLGE-FM since the institution of the Commission's new rules. These same documents can be viewed in the station's Public File, which is housed at 1400 Main Street, Suite 104, in Ferndale, California. The file is available for viewing during normal business hours. The next required posting is August 1, 2023.
