Sec.  61.20   Method of filing publications.

   (a) Publications sent for filing must be addressed to ”Secretary, Federal
   Communications Commission, Washington, DC 20554.“ The date on which the
   publication is received by the Secretary of the Commission (or the Mail Room
   where submitted by mail) is considered the official filing date.

   (b)(1)  In addition, except for issuing carriers filing tariffing fees
   electronically, for all tariff publications requiring fees as set forth in
   part 1, subpart G of this chapter, issuing carriers must submit the original
   of the cover letter (without attachments), FCC Form 159, and the appropriate
   fee to the Mellon Bank, Pittsburgh, PA at the address set forth in  Sec. 1.1105
   of this chapter. Issuing carriers submitting tariffing fees electronically
   should submit the Form 159 and the original cover letter to the Secretary of
   the Commission in lieu of the Mellon Bank. The Form 159 should display the
   Electronic  Audit Code in the box in the upper left hand corner marked
   “reserved.” Issuing carriers should submit these fee materials on the same
   date as the submission in paragraph (a) of this section.

   (2) International carriers must certify in their original cover letter that
   they are authorized under Section 214 of the Communications Act of 1934, as
   amended, to provide service, and reference the FCC file number of that
   authorization.

   (c) In addition to the requirements set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of
   this section, the issuing carrier must send a copy of the cover letter with
   one 3 1/2 inch diskette or CD-ROM containing both the complete tariff and
   any attachments, as appropriate, to the Secretary, Federal Communications
   Commission. In addition, the issuing carrier must send one diskette or
   CD-ROM  of  the  complete tariff and a copy of the cover letter to the
   commercial contractor (at its office on Commission premises), and to the
   Chief, Tariff and Pricing Analysis Branch. The latter should be clearly
   labeled as the “Public Reference Copy.” The issuing carrier should file the
   copies required by this paragraph so they will be received on the same date
   as the filings in paragraph (a) of this section. In cases where the a single
   diskette or CD-ROM does not provide sufficient capacity for the carrier's
   entire tariff filing, the issuing carrier may submit two or more diskettes,
   or two or more CD-ROMs, as necessary.

   Redesignated at  61 FR 59366 , Nov. 22, 1996, and further redesignated and
   amended at  64 FR 46587 , Aug. 26, 1999]
