Narrative:

I received a citation for driving while intoxicated on apr/xx/96. I was unaware that the FAA required that I give notice to them of this dui. However this was reported to the FAA when I had flight medical renewed in oct of 1996. Now the FAA is going to suspend my commercial pilot certificate. Aerial spraying is the livelihood of myself and family. Although season is about over for most sprayers, I do a lot of fall spraying oct-dec. This had nothing to do with an aircraft and I had not started spraying on jan/xx/96. If there is any way that you can help with this problem I could surely use it. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter stated that he had been given a civil penalty as the outcome of his violation. He said that he was not aware of the far that required a written report within 60 days of the outcome of the dui conviction for driving under the influence.
