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.
