FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

FCC Office of the Secretary Closes Temporay Filing Facility at 1919 M Street, NW

Released: February 18, 1999.

Effective March 1, 1999, all paper filings hand delivered to the Federal Communications Commission will be accepted only at the designated filing counter, TW-A325, in the 12th Street Lobby of the Commission's Portals II building, 445-12th Street, SW, Washington, DC 20554. The temporary filing facility located at Room 222, 1919 M Street, NW, Washington, DC, will be discontinued at the close of business on Friday, February 26, 1999. Staff shortages in the Secretary's Office, increased workload associated with serving FCC staff in split locations, and the Secretary's desire to expedite the distribution of paper filings have triggered the need to close the temporary filing facility before the Commission's complete relocation to the Portals II building.

In accordance with current practice, paper filings will be accepted between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Filers will continue to receive their ``stamp and return'' copy upon request.

FCC Secretary Magalie Salas stated, ``We appreciate everyone's cooperation during our transition period, and we look forward to serving you at the Portals II building.''

Please forward any questions to FCC Secretary Magalie Roman Salas; Deputy Secretary Bill Caton; or Assistant Secretary Ruth Dancey at (202) 418-0300 or http://www.fcc.gov/office of the secretary.

Federal Communications Commission. Magalie Roman Salas, Secretary.
