renewal of his amateur service station and operator licenses.
    3. The Order asserted further that, in Commonwealth of Pennsylvania 
v. Rodgers, Docket No. 2300-93 (Court of Common Pleas, Chester County, 
Pa.), Mr. Rodgers was convicted upon four counts of violating Section 
6301(a) [corruption of minors] of the Pennsylvania Criminal Code and 
upon four counts of violating Section 3126(a)(1) [indecent assault] of 
the Pennsylvania Criminal Code.

an Administrative Law Judge and at a time and location to be determined

issues:
    (a) To determine whether, in light of the facts determined in 
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania v. Rodgers, supra, George E. Rodgers is 
qualified to renew his amateur service licenses.
    (b) To determine, in light of the foregoing issue, whether granting 
George E. Rodger's application would serve the public interest, 
convenience and necessity.
    6. The Order placed the burden on proceeding with the introduction 
of evidence and the burden of proof upon the respondent as to all 
issues.
