information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
Commission's burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility 
and clarity of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 
burden of the collection of information on the respondents, including 
the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology.

addresses from its databases and mailed to these licensees Public 
Notices that (1) announced when regulatory fees are due; and (2) 
provided guidance for making fee payments. For the FY 2004 regulatory 
season, the Commission is going to send fee assessments to cable TV 
operators, media services licensees, and commercial mobile radio 
service (CMRS) licensees so that they have an opportunity to counter, 
update or rectify basic license data and assessed fee amounts well 
before the actual due date for submission or regulatory fee payments. 
We will use the information to update our database.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
