FEDERAL COMMtJNICATIONS COMMISSION 
Washington, D.C. 20554 
In the Matter of 
Amendment of the Schedule 
of Application Fees Set 
Forth in Sections 1.1102 
through 1.1107 of the 
Commission's Rules 
ORDER 
FCC 96-332 
GEN Docket No. 86-285 
Adopted: August 7, 1996 Released: August 7, 1996 
By the Commission: 
1. By this action, the Commission amends its Schedule of 
Application Fees, 47 C.F.R. Section 1.1102 et seq., to adjust the 
fees for processing applications and other filings. Section 8(b) 
of the Communications Act, as amended, requires that the Commission 
review and adjust its application fees every two years after 
October 1, 1991 (47 U.S.C. Section 158(b)). The adjusted or 
increased fees reflect the net change in the Consumer Price Index 
for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) of 21.S percent, calculated from 
December 1989 to September 1995. The adjustments made to the fee 
schedule comport with the statutory formula set forth in Section 
8(b). ConRistent with Section 8(b), the Commission transmitted to 
Congress a 90-day advance notification of the fee adjustments on 
June 11, 1996. If Congress interposes no objection to the proposed 
increases within the 90-day period, the new fees will become 
effective as set forth in paragraph 2 below. 1 
2. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, that the Schedule of 
Application Fees, 47 C:F.R. Section 1.1102 et seq., IS AMENDED as 
set forth in the attached amendment, and will be published in the 
Federal Register to become effective on September 12, 1996.
