§ 0.401 Location of Commission offices.

of a fee, the appropriate filing address or location is established
elsewhere in the rules for the various types of submissions made to the
Commission. The public should identify the correct filing location by
reference to these rules. Applications or submissions requiring fees must be
submitted in accordance with § 0.401(b) of the rules irrespective of the
addresses that may be set out elsewhere in the rules for other submissions.
(a) General correspondence, as well as applications and filings not
requiring the fees set forth at part 1, subpart G of the rules (or not
claiming an exemption, waiver or deferral from the fee requirement), should

G of the rules must be delivered to the Commission's lockbox bank in St.
Louis, Missouri with the correct fee and completed Fee Form attached to the
application or filing, unless otherwise directed by the Commission. In the
case of any conflict between this rule subpart and other rules establishing
filing locations for submissions subject to a fee, this subpart shall
govern.
Note: Applicants seeking a waiver or deferral of fees must submit their
application or filing in accordance with the addresses set forth below.
Applicants claiming a statutory exemption from the fees should file their
applications in accordance with paragraph (a) of this section.
(1) Applications and filings submitted by mail shall be addressed to the
U.S. Bank in St. Louis, Missouri. The bank maintains separate post office
boxes for the receipt of different types of applications. It will also
establish special post office boxes to receive responses to special filings
such as applications filed in response to “filing windows” established by
the Commission. The address for the submission of filings will be
established in the Public Notice announcing the filing dates. In all other
cases, applications and filings submitted by mail should be sent to the
addresses listed in the appropriate fee rules.
Note: Wireless Telecommunications Bureau applications that require frequency
coordination by certified coordinators must be submitted to the appropriate
certified frequency coordinator before filing with the Commission. After
coordination, the applications are filed with the Commission as set forth
herein. (See § § 90.127 and 90.175 of this chapter.)
(2) Applications and other filings may also be hand carried, in person or by
courier, to the U.S. Bank, Government Lockbox, 1005 Convention Plaza, St.
Louis, Missouri. All applications and filings delivered in this manner must
be in an envelope clearly marked for the “Federal Communications
Commission,” and identified with the appropriate Post Office Box address as
set out in the fee schedule (§ § 1.1102 through 1.1109 of this chapter).
Applications should be enclosed in a separate envelope for each Post Office
Box. Hand-carried or couriered applications and filings may be delivered at
any time on any day. Applications or filings received by the bank before
midnight on any Commission business day will be treated as having been filed
on that day. Materials received by the bank after midnight, Monday through
Friday, or on weekends or holidays, will be treated as having been filed on
the next Commission business day.
(3) Alternatively, applications and other filings may be sent electronically
via the Universal Licensing System (ULS) or the Cable Operations and
Licensing System (COALS) as appropriate for use of those systems.
