FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
47 CFR Part 1
[MD Docket No. 20-270; FCC 24-137; FR ID 273962]
Schedule of Application Fees
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In this document, the Federal Communications Commission
(Commission) revises its Schedule of Application Fees to adjust for
increases in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
DATES: Effective date: May 23, 2025.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Daniel Daly, Office of Managing
Director, at (202) 418-1832, [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a summary of the Commission's Order,
FCC 24-137, MD Docket No. 20-270, adopted on December 31, 2024, and
released on January 7, 2025. Based on the CPI, there is an increase of
17.41 percent in application fees. The full text of this document is
available for public inspection by downloading the text from the
Commission's website at https://www.fcc.gov/document/2024-application-fee-order.
I. Procedural Matters
A. Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
1. No Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is required under the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 604, because the amendments
adopted herein pertain to agency organization, procedure, and practice,
or because there is ``good cause'' to conclude that notice and comment
and delayed effectiveness are unnecessary for non-substantive,
editorial revisions.
B. Final Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 Analysis
2. This document does not contain new or modified information
collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
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
3. The Commission has determined, and the Administrator of the
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, concurs that these rules are non-major under the Congressional
Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The Commission has sent a copy of the
Order to Congress and the Government Accountability office, pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
II. Order
4. By the Order, the Commission adopts rule changes to our Schedule
of Application Fees set forth in Sec. Sec. 1.1102 through 1.1109 of
our rules, to adjust our fees for processing applications and other
filings. Section 8(b)(1) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended
(Communications Act or Act), requires the Commission, in every even-
numbered year, to adjust the schedule of fees for processing
applications to reflect increases or decreases in the Consumer Price
Index (CPI), rounded to the nearest $5 increment. In the Order, we make
the 2024 CPI adjustment.
5. In December 2020, pursuant to authority established by the RAY
BAUM'S Act, the Commission adopted a new application fee schedule that
significantly updated the Commission's fiscal year (FY) 2018 fee
schedule (last fee schedule before implementation of the RAY BAUM'S
Act). Accordingly, in 2022, pursuant to section 8(b) of the Act, the
Commission adjusted the fees by applying an inflation factor to the
fees adopted in 2020 to reflect a change
[[Page 17013]]
in the CPI of 11.59%, an increase of 30.958 index points calculated
from 267.054 (April 2021) to 298.012 (October 2022). Applying the CPI
Index consistent with the preceding calculation and adjusted within a
specific timeframe, the fee schedule adopted in the 2024 Order reflects
a change in the CPI of 17.41%, an increase of 46.494 index points
calculated from 267.054 (first effective date of 2020 fees in April
2021) to 313.548 (April 2024). The adjustments comply with the
requirements set forth in section 8(b) of the Act. Pursuant to section
8(b)(2) of the Act, however, the Commission may not adjust an
application fee if: (1) in the case of a fee the current amount of
which is less than $200, the adjustment would result in a change in the
current amount of less than $10 or (2) in the case of a fee the current
amount of which is $200 or more, the adjustment would result in a
change in the current amount of less than 5 percent.
6. We recognize that, at the time of the Order, there are open
rulemakings that propose new application fees. The Order, however,
merely implements the 2024 CPI adjustment and does not address fees
proposed in any other proceedings.
7. Procedural Matters. 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 under section 8(b) leaves us no
discretion, prior notice and comment is unnecessary pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B). Additionally, no final regulatory flexibility
analysis is required pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 604(a) of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. Further, 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).
8. Congressional Review Act. The Commission has determined, and the
Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget, concurs, that this rule is non-major
under the Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The Commission
will send a copy of the Order to Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A) and section
9a(b) of the Act. Notification of the fee adjustments made in the Order
will also be published in the Federal Register.
9. Electronic Payments. As a reminder, filers are required to
submit payments electronically in accordance with the procedures set
forth on the Commission's website, https://www.fcc.gov/licensing-databases/fees/application-processing-fees. Payments can be made
through the Commission Registration System (CORES), accessible at
https://apps.fcc.gov/cores/userLogin.do. To file applications, tariffs,
and petitions, parties utilize, as applicable, the Commission's
Electronic Tariff Filing System (ETFS) 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 https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs.
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, accessible at https://www.fcc.gov/secretary.
III. Ordering Clauses
10. 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 in the Order
are adopted and the Schedule of Application Fees, 47 CFR 1.1102 through
1.1107, is amended as set forth in the Appendix of the Order.
11. It is further ordered that the rule changes and adjustments to
the Schedule of Application Fees made in the Order shall become
effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register.
12. It is further ordered that the Office of the Managing Director,
Performance Program Management, shall send a copy of the Order in a
report to be sent to Congress and the Government Accountability Office
pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A), and
section 9a(b) of the Act.

Some of the wireless application fees in this section have a
regulatory fee component that must be paid at the time of a new or a
renewal of a wireless application. Please refer to the Wireless Filing
Guide for payment type codes at https://www.fcc.gov/wireless-fees.
(a) In tables to this section, the amounts appearing in the column
labeled ``Fee Amount'' are for application fees only. Certain services,
as indicated in the following table, also have associated regulatory
fees that must be paid at the same time the application fee is paid.
For more information on the associated regulatory fees, please refer to
the most recent Wireless Telecommunications Bureau Fee Filing Guide for
the corresponding regulatory fee amount located at https://www.fcc.gov/wireless-fees For additional guidance, please refer to Sec. 1.1152.

(b) Site-based licensed services are services for which an
applicant's initial application for authorization generally provides
the exact technical parameters of its planned operations (such as
transmitter location, area of operation,
[[Page 17014]]
desired frequency(s)/band(s), power levels). Site-based licensed
services include land mobile systems (one or more base stations
communicating with mobile devices, or mobile-only systems), point-to-
point systems (two stations using a spectrum band to form a data
communications path), point to-multipoint systems (one or more base
stations that communicate with fixed remote units), as well as
radiolocation and radionavigation systems. Examples of these licenses
include, but are not limited to, the Industrial/Business Pool, Trunked
