Each year, the FCC has the task of an adopting a schedule of regulatory fees to be collected by the end of September. For fiscal year 2024, the Commission is required to collect a grand total of $390,192,000 in regulatory fees, payable through a collection of forfeitures for rule violations and, largely, through a fee schedule.
This fee schedule has been adopted by the Commission, albeit with reservations from the senior Republican Commissioner at the FCC.
