Sec. 1.1116 Penalty for late or insufficient payments.
(a) Filings subject to fees and accompanied by defective fee submissions
will be dismissed under Sec. 1.1109 (d) of this subpart where the defect is
discovered by the Commission's staff within 30 calendar days from the
receipt of the application or filing by the Commission.
(1) A defective fee may be corrected by resubmitting the application or
other filing, together with the entire correct fee.
(2) For purposes of determining whether the filing is timely, the date of
resubmission with the correct fee will be considered the date of filing.
However, in cases where the fee payment fails due to error of the
applicant's bank, as evidenced by an affidavit of an officer of the bank,
the date of the original submission will be considered the date of filing.
(b) Applications or filings accompanied by insufficient fees or no fees, or
where such applications or filings are made by persons or organizations that
are delinquent in fees owed to the Commission, that are inadvertently
forwarded to Commission staff for substantive review will be billed for the
amount due if the discrepancy is not discovered until after 30 calendar days
from the receipt of the application or filing by the Commission.
Applications or filings that are accompanied by insufficient fees or no fees
will have a penalty charge equaling 25 percent of the amount due added to
each bill. Any Commission action taken prior to timely payment of these
charges is contingent and subject to rescission.
(c) Applicants to whom a deferral of payment is granted under the terms of
this subsection will be billed for the amount due plus a charge equalling 25
percent of the amount due. Any Commission actions taken prior to timely
payment of these charges are contingent and subject to rescission.
(d) Failure to submit fees, following notice to the applicant of failure to
submit the required fee, is subject to collection of the fee, including
interest thereon, any associated penalties, and the full cost of collection
to the Federal government pursuant to the provisions of the Debt Collection
Improvement Act, 31 U.S.C. 3717 and 3720A. See 47 CFR 1.1901 through 1.1952.
The debt collection processes described above may proceed concurrently with
any other sanction in this paragraph.

Editorial Note: At 69 FR 57230 , Sept. 24, 2004, Sec. 1.1116(a) introductory
text was corrected by changing the reference to “ Sec. 1.1109(b)” to read
“ Sec. 1.1109(d)”; however, the amendment could not be incorporated because that
reference does not exist in the paragraph.
