                  CHANGES TO FEE REQUIREMENTS
             FOR PART 80 MARITIME COAST APPLICANTS
                                
                                
PR Docket No. 92-257 (Fourth Report and Order and Third Further Notice of Proposed Rule Making) 
released on November 16, 2000 adopted a 10 year license term for Part 80 licenses other than ship
stations in the maritime services.  The Wireless Telecommunications Bureau implemented this change
effective with Commission receipts of January 13, 2001.  Part 80 Maritime Coast applications for
new or renewed authorizations received on or after January 13, 2001 resulting in a subsequent granted
authorization will receive a 10 year license term.  These licenses were previously authorized for a 5 year
term. 

Part 80 Maritime Coast applications for New, Renewal, or Renew/Mod received on or after January 13,
2001, and requiring payment of regulatory fees at the time of application filing, must be accompanied by
regulatory payment for 10 years in lieu of 5 years.  

The changes affect Payment/Fee Type Code PBMR only.  The new fee amount required is $165.00. 
Applications received with insufficient payment will not be accepted for filing.
