(b) The Commission will use the information that is submitted in
support of requests for a waiver or deferral of the payment of an
application fee and the waiver, deferral, or reduction of an annual
regulatory fee to determine if the applicant has met the statutory and
regulatory legal standards to warrant relief.
(c) The Commission will use the information that is submitted in
support of requests for an exemption of the payment of an application
fee to facilitate the statutory provision that non-profit entities be
exempt from payment of regulatory fees; and facilitate the FCC's
ability to audit regulatory fee payment compliance.
