**FCC ANNOUNCES EFFECTIVE DATE FOR REORGANIZED BUREAUS**

*Initiates New FCC Reform Web Site*

Washington, DC -- The FCC today announced that reorganization of several
of the agency's bureaus will go into effect March 25, 2002.

As part of its reform efforts to make the FCC more effective, efficient
and responsive, the Commission in January announced its approval of the
reorganization of several of the agency's bureaus. Congress and the
National Treasury Employees Union Local 209 also have approved the
reorganization.

The bureaus affected by the reorganization are: Media Bureau (formerly
the Cable Services and Mass Media Bureaus); Wireline Competitition
Bureau (formerly Common Carrier Bureau); Consumer and Governmental
Affairs Bureau (formerly Consumer Information Bureau); International
Bureau; Enforcement Bureau; Wireless Telecommunications Bureau; and
Office of Legislative Affairs (formerly Office of Legislative and
Intergovernmental Affairs). A list of senior managers is attached.

The Commission also announced the launch of a new web site on the FCC's
reform efforts, which can be found at: <http://www.fcc.gov/fcc_reform/>
