By this Order, the Commission makes rule changes to part 1 of the Commission's rules, and amends its Schedule of Application Fees, 47 CFR 1.1102 through 1.1109, as listed in the Rule Changes section, 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(g) contains the Schedule of Charges for a broad range of application categories as well as procedures for modifying and collecting these charges.\2\ Section 8(b)(1) requires that the Schedule of Application Fees ``be reviewed by the Commission every two years after October 1, 1991, and adjusted by the Commission to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index.'' As required by Section 8(b)(1), this Order increases application fees to reflect the net change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (``CPI-U'') of 3.7 percent, an increase of 8.825 index points calculated from October 2015 (237.838) to October 2017 (246.663).\3\ [[Page 38040]] The adjustments comply with the statutory formula set forth in Section 8(b). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ 47 U.S.C. 158(a). \2\ The RAY BAUM's Act of 2018 amended Section 8 of the Communications Act and provided an effective date of October 1, 2018 for such changes. Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018, Division P--RAY BAUM's Act of 2018, Title I, FCC Reauthorization, Public Law 115-141 (March 23, 2018). Congress envisioned a transition between fees adopted before and after the effective date of the amendments to Section 8. In particular, Congress provided that application fees in effect on the day before the effective date of the RAY BAUM's Act shall remain in effect until such time as the Commission adjusts or amends such fee. Id. Section 8 fees are revised every even year and the Commission expects that this Order will become effective before October 1, 2018. We also note that in a separate proceeding, the Commission proposed to assess a small satellite application fee of $30,000.00 under the RAY BAUM's Act. See Streamlining Licensing Procedures for Small Satellites, Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, IB Docket No. 18-86, FCC 18-44, para. 76 (2018). In this Order, the Commission does not address this proposal. \3\ Application fees are calculated based upon the process set forth in 47 U.S.C. 158(b)(1). The increase in the CPI-U between October 2015 (the month used to calculate the last CPI-U adjustment of the Schedule of Application Fees) and October 2017 is 8.825 index points, a 3.7 percent increase. Section 8(b)(1) prescribes that increases or decreases in application fees are to be ``determined by the net change in the Consumer Price Index since the date of enactment of this section,'' i.e., since December 1989. The actual calculation of fees is based on index points that are averaged over a time period beginning in December 1989. See Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI-U Index, https://www.bls.gov/cpi/tables/historical-cpi-u-201710.pdf (showing a CPI-U Index of 237.838 for October 2015 and 246.663 for October 2017). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. The methodology and timing of adjustments to application fees are prescribed by statute at 47 U.S.C. 158(b). Because our action implementing the statute leaves us no discretion, prior notice and comment is unnecessary pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). This Order is also exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 601(2). Copies of this Order will be sent to Congress and the Comptroller General in compliance with the Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq. Notification of the fee adjustments made in this Order will be published in the Federal Register. 3. Reminder Regarding Lockbox Closures. During the past few years, the Commission has been reducing its use of P.O. Boxes for the collection of fees and has encouraged the use of electronic payment systems for all application and regulatory fees.\4\ The electronic payment of fees for applications, tariffs, and petitions increases the agency's financial efficiency by reducing expenditures, including the annual fee for utilizing the bank's services and the cost of processing each transaction manually, with very little or no inconvenience to the regulatees, applicants, and the public.\5\ As part of this process, the Commission has closed Lockbox 979092 (used to submit fees and petitions related to services provided by the Public Safety & Homeland Security Bureau) and Lockbox 979091 (used to submit fees and petitions related to services provided by the Wireline Competition Bureau).\6\ Additional closings will occur in coming months. As these Lockboxes are closed, filers will be required to submit payments electronically in accordance with the procedures set forth on the Commission's website, https://www.fcc.gov/licensingdatabases/fees. Payments can be made through the Fee Filer Online System (Fee Filer), accessible at https://www.fcc.gov/licensing-databases/fees/fee-filer, although we caution filers that the agency may transition to other secure payment systems in the future, after appropriate public notice and guidance. To file applications, tariffs, and petitions, parties should utilize, as applicable, the Commission's Electronic Tariff Filing System for tariffs, which can be found at https://apps.fcc.gov/etfs/etfsHome.action, or the Electronic Comment Filing System (ECFS), which can be found at http://apps.fcc.gov/ecfs/upload/display. Petitions filed in hard copy format should be submitted according to the procedures set forth on the web page of the Commission's Office of the Secretary, https://www.fcc.gov/seretary. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ The Commission previously revised its payment rules to encourage electronic payment of application processing fees and require electronic payment of regulatory fees. 47 CFR 1.1112 (application fees) and 1.1158 (regulatory fees). These rules became effective November 30, 2015. 80 FR 66816 (Oct. 30, 2015). \5\ See Treasury Financial Manual, Bulletin No. 2017-12, ``Agency No-Cash or No-Check Policies,'' released on September 18, 2017 (explaining the circumstances under which agencies may decide not to accept payments made in cash or by check), available at https://tfm.fiscal.treasury.gov/v1/bull/17-12.pdf; see also https://www.thefederalregister.org/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-06-16/pdf/2011-15181.pdf. \6\ Amendment of Part 1 of the Commission's Rules, Order, MD Docket No. 17-123, 32 FCC Rcd 4203 (2017) (modifying Section 1.1109 of the Commission's rules to delete reference to P.O. Box 979092 at U.S. Bank in St. Louis, Missouri); Amendment of Parts 0, 1, 51, and 61 of the Commission's Rules, Order, MD Docket No. 17-357, 32 FCC Rcd 10565 (2017) (modifying Section 1.1105 of the Commission's rules to delete reference to P.O. Box 979091 at U.S. Bank in St. Louis, Missouri). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- II. Procedural Matters A. Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis 4. This Order is exempt from the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 601(2). B. Final Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 Analysis 5. This document does not contain new or modified information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), Public Law 104-13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain any new or modified information collection burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees, pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4). C. Congressional Review Act 6. The Commission will send a copy of this Order to Congress and the Government Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A). III. Ordering Clauses 7. Accordingly, it is ordered, that, pursuant to 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 CFR 1.1102 through 1.1109, is amended as set forth in the Rule Changes section. 8. It is further ordered that the rule changes and amendments to the Schedule of Application Fees made herein shall become effective September 4, 2018. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene Dortch, Secretary. Final Rules For the reasons discussed in the preamble, the Federal Communications Commission amends 47 CFR part 1 as follows: PART 1--PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE 0 1. The authority citation for part 1 continues to read as follows: Authority: 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 155, 157, 160, 201, 225, 227, 303, 309, 332, 1403, 1404, 1451, 1452, and 1455, unless otherwise noted. 0 2. Section 1.1102 is revised to read as follows: Sec. 1.1102 Schedule of charges for applications and other filings in the wireless telecommunications services. In the table below, the amounts appearing in the column labeled ``Fee Amount'' are for application fees only. Those services designated in the table below with an asterisk (*) in the column labeled ``Payment Type Code'' also have associated regulatory fees that must be paid at the same time the application fee is paid. Please refer to the FY 2017 Wireless Telecommunications Fee Filing Guide (updated and effective 9/ 26/16) for the corresponding regulatory fee amount located at https://www.fcc.gov/document/wtb-fee-filing-guide-effective-september-26-2016. For additional guidance, please refer to Sec. 1.1152. Payment can be made electronically using the Commission's electronic filing and payment system ``Fee Filer'' (www.fcc.gov/feefiler).
