V. Post-auction Procedures

A. Down Payments and Withdrawn Bid

Payments

140. After bidding has ended, the

Commission will issue a public notice

declaring the auction closed, identifying

the winning bids and bidders for each

license, and listing withdrawn bid

payments due.

141. Within ten business days after

release of the auction closing notice,

each winning bidder must submit

sufficient funds (in addition to its

upfront payment) to bring its total

amount of money on deposit with the

Government to 20 percent of its net

winning bids (actual bids less any

applicable small and very small

business bidding credits). See 47 CFR

1.2107(b). In addition, by the same

deadline all bidders must pay any

withdrawn bid amounts due under 47

CFR 1.2104(g), as discussed in ‘‘Bid

Removal and Bid Withdrawal,’’ Part

IV.B.6. (Upfront payments are applied

first to satisfy any withdrawn bid

liability, before being applied toward

down payments.)

B. Long-Form Application

142. Within ten business days after

release of the auction closing notice,

winning bidders must electronically

submit a properly completed long-form

application and required exhibits for

each license won through Auction No.

35. Winning bidders that are

entrepreneurs and/or small or very

small businesses must include an

exhibit demonstrating their eligibility

for closed bidding and/or small and

very small business bidding credits as

applicable. See 47 CFR 1.2112(b),

24.709(c)(2)(i). Further filing

instructions will be provided to auction

winners at the close of the auction.

C. Tribal Land Bidding Credit

143. A winning bidder that intends to

use its license(s) to deploy facilities and

provide services to federally-recognized

tribal lands that are unserved by any

telecommunications carrier or that have

a telephone service penetration rate

equal to or below 70 percent is eligible

to receive a tribal land bidding credit as

set forth in 47 CFR 1.2107 and

1.2110(e). A tribal land bidding credit is

in addition to, and separate from, any

other bidding credit for which a

winning bidder may qualify.

144. Unlike other bidding credits that

are requested prior to the auction, a

winning bidder applies for the tribal

land bidding credit after winning the

auction when it files its long-form

application (FCC Form 601). In order for

a winning bidder to be awarded a tribal

land bidding credit, it must provide

specific certifications regarding the

servicing of tribal lands and is subject

to specific performance criteria as set

forth in 47 CFR 1.2110(e).

145. For additional information on the

tribal land bidding credit, including

how to determine the amount of credit

available, see Public Notice DA 00–

2219, released September 28, 2000,

entitled Wireless Telecommunications

Bureau Announces Availability of

Bidding Credits For Providing Wireless

Services To Qualifying Tribal Lands.

D. Auction Discount Voucher

146. On June 8, 2000, the Commission

awarded Qualcomm, Inc. a transferable

Auction Discount Voucher in the

amount of $125,273,878.00. This

Auction Discount Voucher may be used

by Qualcomm or its transferee, in whole

or in part, to adjust a winning bid in any

spectrum auction prior to June 8, 2003,

subject to terms and conditions set forth

in the Commission’s Order.

E. Default and Disqualification

147. Any high bidder that defaults or

is disqualified after the close of the

auction (i.e., fails to remit the required

down payment within the prescribed

period of time, fails to submit a timely

long-form application, fails to make full

payment, or is otherwise disqualified)

will be subject to the payments

described in 47 CFR 1.2104(g)(2). In

such event the Commission may reauction the license or offer it to the next

highest bidder (in descending order) at

its final bid. See 47 CFR 1.2109(b) and

(c). In addition, if a default or

disqualification involves gross

misconduct, misrepresentation, or bad

faith by an applicant, the Commission

may declare the applicant and its

principals ineligible to bid in future

auctions, and may take any other action

that it deems necessary, including

institution of proceedings to revoke any

existing licenses held by the applicant.

See 47 CFR 1.2109(d).

F. Refund of Remaining Upfront

Payment Balance

148. All applicants that submitted

upfront payments but were not winning

bidders for a license in Auction No. 35

may be entitled to a refund of their

remaining upfront payment balance

after the conclusion of the auction. No

refund will be made unless there are

excess funds on deposit from that

applicant after any applicable bid

withdrawal payments have been paid.

149. Qualified bidders that have

exhausted all of their activity rule

waivers, have no remaining bidding

eligibility, and have not withdrawn a

high bid during the auction must submit

a written refund request. If you have

completed the refund instructions

electronically, then only a written

request for the refund is necessary. If

not, the request must also include wire

transfer instructions and a Taxpayer

Identification Number (TIN). Send

refund request to: Federal

Communications Commission,

Financial Operations Center, Auctions

Accounting Group, Shirley Hanberry,

445 12th Street, SW, Room 1–A824,

Washington, DC 20554.

150. Bidders are encouraged to file

their refund information electronically

using the refund information portion of

the FCC Form 175, but bidders can also

fax their information to the Auctions

Accounting Group at (202) 418–2843.

Once the information has been

approved, a refund will be sent to the

party identified in the refund

information. NOTE: Refund processing

generally takes up to two weeks to

complete. Bidders with questions about

refunds should contact Tim Dates or

Gail Glasser at (202) 418–1995.

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION

Charges for Certain Disclosures

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice regarding charges for

certain disclosures.

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade

Commission announces that the current

$8.50 ceiling on allowable charges

under Section 612(a) of the Fair Credit

Reporting Act (‘‘FCRA’’) will remain

unchanged for 2001. Under 1996

amendments to the FCRA, the Federal

Trade Commission is required to

increase the $8.00 amount referred to in

paragraph (1)(A)(i) of Section 612(a) on

January 1 of each year, based

proportionally on changes in the

Consumer Price Index (‘‘CPI’’), with

fractional changes rounded to the

nearest fifty cents. The CPI increased

7.75 percent between September 1997,

the date the FCRA amendments took

effect, and September 2000. This

increase in the CPI and the requirement

that any increase be rounded to the

nearest fifty cents results in no change

in the current maximum allowable

charge of $8.50.

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 1, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Federal Trade Commission,

Washington, DC 20580.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Keith B. Anderson, Bureau of

Economics, Federal Trade Commission,

Washington, DC 20580, 202–326–3428.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

612(a)(1)(A) of the Fair Credit Reporting

Act, as amended in 1996, states that,

where a consumer reporting agency is

permitted to impose a reasonable charge

on a consumer for making a disclosure

to the consumer pursuant to Section

609, the charge shall not exceed $8 and

shall be indicated to the consumer

before making the disclosure. Section

612(a)(2) goes on to state that the

Federal Trade Commission (‘‘the

Commission’’) shall increase the $8.00

maximum amount on January 1 of each

year, based proportionally on changes in

the Consumer Price Index, with

fractional changes rounded to the

nearest fifty cents.

The Commission considers the $8

amount referred to in paragraph (1)(A)(i)

of Section 612(a) to be the baseline for

the effective ceiling on reasonable

charges dating from the effective date of

the amended FCRA, i.e., September 30,

1997. Each year the Commission

calculates the proportional increase in

the Consumer Price Index (using the

most general CPI, which is for all urban

consumers, all items) from September

1997 to September of the current year.

The Commission then determines what

modification, if any, from the original

base of $8 should be made effective on

January 1 of the subsequent year, given

the requirement that fractional changes

be rounded to the nearest fifty cents.

Between September 1997 and

September 2000, the Consumer Price

Index for all urban consumers and all

items increased by 7.75 percent—from

an index value of 161.2 in September

1997 to a value of 173.7 in September

2000. An increase of 7.75 percent in the

$8.00 base figure would lead to a new

figure of $8.62. However, because the

statute directs that the resulting figure

be rounded to the nearest $0.50, the

allowable charge should be $8.50.

The Commission therefore determines

that the allowable charge for the year

2001 will remain unchanged at $8.50.

By direction of the Commission.

Donald S. Clark,

Secretary.
