Quick EDOCS / ECFS Search
If you know the reference number for a particular Commission item, e.g. FCC 00-29, DA 11-222, you can use this quick search by selecting the appropriate type under "EDOCS" and specifying the output type. Docket and rulemaking numbers (e.g., Docket 99-25) can be searched by selecting the appropriate type under ECFS
(no document
type needed). Not all documents may be available using this limited search.
If you need help with finding documents, contact MBWEB@fcc.gov for assistance.
EDOCS: If you know the FCC, DA, or (in some cases)
the EDOCS DOC number, select the corresponding document type in the left box.
Enter the number of the item in the Number box, e.g. 12-222. In the third
box, select the output type (text, PDF, or Word). When you submit, this should
pull up the document directly from EDOCS, or an error message will pop up if the document
does not exist.
ECFS: If you have a Docket or Rulemaking number, scroll down in the
left box. Under ECFS, select either DKT or RM, as appropriate. Enter the
Docket number (e.g. 09-66) or rulemaking number in the second box.
The output type (Text, PDF, Word) is ignored for this inquiry. When you submit,
ECFS will pull up records for the proceeding or give a "not found" message.
Documents from 1997 and later can be retrieved from the links on the page,
earlier proceedings may have proceeding history pages. Records go back to
about 1990.
Note: Documents are usually posted within two or three
working days of release. Please check back after that much time has passed if you cannot
find a document immediately after release. Sometimes due to oversight a document is accidentally not
posted. If you believe this has occurred, or have any sort of problem with finding
documents, or discover a document which is posted but not listed, please e-mail
MBWEB@fcc.gov.
Older Documents From Predecessor Bureaus
The following lists contain documents from the predecessor to the current Media Bureau. We began a new indexing system in 2001, so there are two choices for each Bureau covering different years, with some overlap between the two. Use the more recent indexes if possible because they are easier to read.
For more information pertaining to the Media Bureau, please call: (202) 418-7200.
