Practice and Procedure
The FCC proposes to amend its regulations regarding forfeitures by adding a note incorporating guidelines for assessing forfeitures. This action is being taken in response to a decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia which vacated the Commission's 1993 Forfeiture Policy Statement because the Court found it should have been subject to Notice and Comment rulemaking proceedings. The Commission is requesting comments on the advantages or disadvantages of adopting forfeiture guidelines, and on the reasonableness of proposed base forfeiture amounts applicable to violations in the various services.
