By Alina Selyukh WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Comcast Corp said on Thursday it plans to submit documents on its proposed $45 billion takeover of Time Warner Cable Inc to U.S. regulators by the end of March, when antitrust and public interest reviews will be launched. The proposed merger between the two biggest U.S. cable service providers is expected to draw intense scrutiny from the Federal Communications Commission, which reviews whether deals are in the public interest, and either the Department of Justice or the Federal Trade Commission, which share antitrust oversight. Comcast is targeting the end of March to submit its application to the FCC, spokeswoman Sena Fitzmaurice said. Around the same time, Comcast will also submit documents asking antitrust regulators for approval, she said.
