The deadline to file an FCC Form 470 for FY2016 is almost here.

*April 1, 2016 is the last day to file an FY2016 FCC Form 470.*

If you wait to file your Form 470 until April 1, then you will have to
complete all of the following on April 29, which is the day that the Form
471 filing window closes:
    - Evaluate the bid responses and select a service provider
    - Enter into a legally binding contract with that service provider,
unless services will be month to month or tariff
    - Complete and submit your FCC Form 471

That's a lot to accomplish in one day. Get your Form 470 completed as soon
as possible. Be working on the steps to prepare your Form 471.

Don't forget that both the FCC Form 470 and the FCC Form 471 must be filed
in EPC.
