First, the FCC has asked AM and FM radio licensees to delay their 2024 regulatory fee payments due to errors in population counts that placed some stations in incorrect fee categories. This issue arose after some broadcasters noticed higher fees than expected in the CORES system, despite the FCC announcing reduced fees for 2024. But the Commission quickly resolved the errors and lifted the payment freeze on the Commission Registration System (CORES). Licensees can now view the updated fees on CORES. The FCC is reviewing payments made since September 10 to correct any discrepancies and will contact affected broadcasters if needed. Low Power FM stations labeled “Call Sign—LP” are exempt from FY 2024 fees. The payment deadline remains September 26, 11:59 PM EDT. Under the 2024 schedule, radio fees were reduced by $100-$1,000, depending on market size.
