Sec.  61.14   Method of filing publications.

   (a) Publications filed electronically must be addressed to “Secretary,
   Federal Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554.” The Electronic
   Tariff Filing System will accept filings 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
   The official filing date of a publication received by the Electronic Tariff
   Filing System will be determined by the date and time the transmission ends.
   If the transmission ends after the close of a business day, as that term is
   defined in  Sec. 1.4(e)(2) of this Chapter, the filing will be date and time
   stamped as of the opening of the next business day.

   (b)(1)  In addition, except for issuing carriers filing tariffing fees
   electronically, for all tariff publications requiring fees as set forth in
   part 1, subpart G of this chapter, issuing carriers must submit the original
   of the cover letter (without attachments), FCC Form 159, and the appropriate
   fee to the Mellon Bank, Pittsburgh, PA at the address set forth in  Sec. 1.1105
   of this chapter.

   (2) Issuing carriers filing tariffing fees electronically must submit the
   Form 159. The issuing carrier may submit the Form 159 in either of the
   methods set forth in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) or (b)(2)(ii) of this section:

   (i) Issuing carriers submitting tariffing fees electronically may submit a
   paper copy of the Form 159, and the original transmittal letter to the
   Secretary of the Commission in lieu of the Mellon Bank, or;

   (ii) Issuing carriers submitting tariffing fees electronically may submit a
   copy of the Form 159 electronically as an associated document with their
   tariff filing publication. In this instance issuing carriers must provide an
   electronic signature on their letter of transmittal in accordance with
   section 1.52 of this chapter.

   (iii) Regardless of whether the Form 159 is submitted pursuant to paragraph
   (b)(2)(i) or (b)(2)(ii) of this section, the Form 159 should display the
   Electronic  Audit Code in the box in the upper left hand corner marked
   “reserved.” Issuing carriers should submit these fee materials on the same
   date as the submission in paragraph (a) of this section.

   (c) Carriers that are required to file publications electronically may not
   file those publications on paper or other media unless specifically required
   to do so by the Commission.

   (d) Carriers that are required to file publications electronically need only
   transmit one set of files to the Commission. No other copies to any other
   party are required.

   (e) Carriers that are required to file publications electronically must
   continue to comply with the format requirements set forth in part 61.
