Change in Filing Location for Paper Documents
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
The Commission released a document on December 3, 2009, announcing the new filing location for paper documents effective December 28, 2009. The Commission's contractor will begin receiving handdelivered and/or messengerdelivered paper filings for the Commission's Secretary at the FCC Headquarters building located at 445 12th Street, SW., Room TWA325, Washington, DC 20554.
As the Commission continues to balance its efforts to be accessible to its customers with the need for heightened security measures, we encourage our customers to take full advantage of the Commission's Electronic Comment Filing System to facilitate the filing of applicable documents.
This amendment is made pursuant to Sec. 0.231(b) of the
Commission's rules, 47 CFR 0231. The Federal Communications Commission
considers the rule amendments as a matter of agency practice and
procedure; therefore, compliance with the notice and comment and
effective date provision of the Administrative Procedure Act is not
required. Therefore, the Commission will not send a copy of this final
rule pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
