Federal Communications Commission FCC 08-209 Before the Federal Communications Commission Washington, D.C. 20554 In the Matter of Amendment of the Schedule of Application Fees Set Forth In Sections 1.1102 through 1.1109 of the Commission’s Rules ) ) ) ) ) ) GEN Docket No. 86-285 ORDER Adopted: September 15, 2008 Released: September 22, 2008 By the Commission: 1. By this Order, the Commission makes rule changes to Part 1 of the Commission’s rules, as listed in Appendix A, and amends its Schedule of Application Fees, 47 C.F.R. § 1.1102 et seq., as listed in Appendix B, to adjust its fees for processing applications and other filings. Section 8(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (“the Act”), requires the Commission to “assess and collect application fees at such rates as the Commission shall establish or at such modified rates as it shall establish pursuant to” Section 8(b).1 Section 8 contains the Schedule of Charges for a broad range of application categories as well as procedures for modifying and collecting these charges. The Commission began assessing such application fees in 1987,2 and, as required by section 8(b), it began reviewing the fees every two years beginning after October 1, 1991 to make adjustments to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index.3 As required by section 8(e) of the Act, collected fees are deposited in the general fund of the United States Treasury.4 As required by the statute and consistent with our prior practice, this Order increases application fees to reflect the net change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (“CPI-U”) of 4.9 percent, calculated from October 2005 to October 2007.5 The adjustments made to the fee schedule comport with the statutory formula set forth in Section 8(b). 2. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, that, pursuant to Sections 1, 4(i), 4(j), and 8 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 151, 154(i), 154(j), and 158, the rule changes specified herein ARE ADOPTED and the Schedule of Application Fees, 47 C.F.R. § 1.1102 et seq., IS 1 47 U.S.C. § 158(a). 2 Establishment of a Fee Collection Program to Implement the Provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, Report and Order, 2 FCC Rcd 147 (1987). 3 47 U.S.C. § 158(b)(1). 4 47 U.S.C. § 158(e). 5 Application fees are calculated based upon the process set forth in 47 C.F.R. § 1.1115. The increase in the CPI-U between October 2005 (the month used to calculate the last CPI-U adjustment of the Schedule of Application Fees) and October 2007 is 9.74 index points, or 4.9 percent. See Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI-U Index, ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cpi/cpiai.txt (showing a CPI-U Index of 199.2 for October 2005 and 208.94 for October 2007). Federal Communications Commission FCC 08-209 2 AMENDED as set forth in the attached Appendices. 3. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the rule changes and amendment to the Schedule of Application Fees made herein shall become effective 90 days after notification to Congress.
