The FCC has issued a guide for stations filing applications. This applies to Media Bureau applications, including construction permits, facility changes, transfer of control, license renewals, etc. The guide also includes a fee schedule for each application. Fees were increased by the FCC earlier this year. According to the Commission:
“This Fee Filing Guide is considered a reference guide to identify and describe all of the application fee filing requirements for the Media Bureau. It is meant to be a reference of the services and requests for actions for which the Media Bureau has responsibility and that are subject to an application fee.
The guide consists of two parts, Parts A and B. Part A of the guide provides instructions on how to submit an application fee and identifies other processing services available to the requester. Always read Part A before attempting to complete any of the forms required with your submission. Part B provides form numbers, fee amounts and payment codes for each application.”
