FY 2010 Regulatory Fees Due No Later Than August 31, 2010, Eastern Time (ET)
The Federal Communications Commission announced today that licensees and regulatees who are 
required to pay annual regulatory fees (“Filers”) must make their FY 2010 payments no later than 
August 31, 2010.  Filers must ensure that their regulatory fee payments are RECEIVED at the 
Commission’s St. Louis, Missouri address by 11:59 PM on August 31, 2010, Eastern Daylight Time, 
to avoid incurring a 25 percent late-payment penalty.  All payments must include a FCC Registration 
Number (FRN) in order to be processed. 
As set forth in 47 U.S.C. 159(a), the Commission is required by Congress to collect regulatory fees to 
recover the regulatory costs associated with its enforcement, policy and rulemaking, user information, 
and international activities. Licensees and regulatees are assessed fees calculated as set forth in (See 
Assessment and Collection of Regulatory Fees for Fiscal Year 2010, Report and Order, 75 FR 41932 at 
¶ 1 (July 19, 2010)).  The Commission also publishes industry-specific guidance in Who Owes Fees & 
What is My Fee FY 2010 , which can be found on the Commission website at 
http://www.fcc.gov/fees/regfees.html).
Filers should visit the Commission’s Internet web site at http://www.fcc.gov/fees/regfees.html to 
gather specific information about their FY 2010 regulatory fees, and to begin the filing and payment 
process.
For additional information on regulatory fees, Filers may contact the FCC Financial Operations Help 
Desk at (877) 480-3201, Option 4.
