To request a change in the conditions of any data (administrative or technical) for a granted license, you must file a Modification application. This includes the reporting of data relating to a proposed facility that may have significant environmental effect. These instructions apply only to modifications of licenses for market-based (auctionable) services. Refer to Modification (Site-Based License) for information on modifying a site-based (non-auctionable) license.
IMPORTANT!!! Recent ULS enhancements and features utilize Java applets. To use ULS to file an application for Modification, your computer must be configured with Netscape Communicator 4.51, 4.61, 4.7, or higher. Refer to ULS Browser Requirements for more information.
Follow the steps below to modify a license:

Completed applications only appear on this screen on the day that they were submitted, with the exception of New applications in the auctionable services, which appear until the filing window is closed.
