FCC Announces New Address for Filing of Paper Documents

December 2009
Effective December 28, 2009, hand or messenger-delivered paper filings for the Commission’s Secretary must be submitted at its main building: 445 12th Street, SW, Room TW-A325, Washington, DC 20554.

Previously, the FCC required that such filings be made at an address on Massachusetts Avenue, where they were subjected to radiation to prevent mail-borne contaminants from entering the Commission’s main building. The Massachusetts Avenue facility will be closed.


Paper filings submitted by the US Postal Service, including First Class, Express Mail and Priority Mail, should also be addressed to the FCC at its main building address listed above. However, filings submitted by any other courier must be addressed to 9300 East Hampton Drive, Capitol Heights, MD 20743.
