Mineola Union Free
School District, Mineola, New York: Wireline Competition
Bureau directs USAC to allow Mineola to submit two funding requests
and consider them with its FY 2008 application. In FY 2008, Mineola
timely submitted a paper copy of its FCC Form 471 to USAC. Upon
realizing that it had inadvertently failed to include two of its
three funding requests as part of its FY 2008 application, Mineola
asked USAC if it could submit the missing two pages, including
the two funding requests, to be included with its application as
submitted to USAC. Based on the information provided to us by USAC
staff, we find that this was a clerical error that can be corrected,
pursuant to Commission precedent.

rules expressly permit applicants to receive extensions of the implementation
of non-recurring services deadline in cases where the “service
provider is unable to complete implementation for reasons beyond
the service provider's control,” we grant Hickory Public School’s
appeal and remand it to USAC for appropriate action consistent with

projections of demand and administrative expenses for the Federal
Universal Service Fund for the Third Quarter of 2007. According to
USAC’s projections, $650 million in unused funds from Funding
Years 2001 through 2004 is available to carry forward to increase
disbursements to schools and libraries via the schools and libraries
universal service mechanism. Section 54.507(a)(2) of the Commission’s

and that are unused from prior years shall be available for use in
the next full funding year of the schools and libraries mechanism

Brewster Academy: In

USAC denied funding on the grounds that the requests for telecommunications
service were from service providers that do not provide telecommunications

reimbursement from the E-Rate program. Because the Petitioners may
have used incorrect Service Provider Information Numbers (SPINs),
the order grants the Petitioners the opportunity to correct the SPINs.

Commission grants in part and denies in part Macomb Intermediate
School District Technology Consortium’s (Macomb ISD) Request

that Macomb ISD violated the Commission’s competitive bidding
rules by not selecting the bids that were the most cost-effective.
We find, however, that Macomb ISD is entitled to E-rate program
funding for the T-3 lines in an amount associated with the least
expensive of the services, consistent with the Commission’s
rules on competitive bidding. Released on May 8, 2007. CC Docket

for Review of decisions by USAC denying petitioners’ requests

of the funding requests were for entities ineligible for E-Rate
support. The Commission finds that 11 petitioners have provided
sufficient evidence that the entities for which they sought discounted
services were eligible for support and that four petitioners have
provided sufficient evidence justifying further review by USAC.
For the remaining two petitioners, the Commission holds that the
Commission’s 30 percent rule is not applicable to the petitioners’ applications.

of the Commission’s rules, which requires USAC to deny a
request for E-rate support if 30 percent or more of a request for
discounts is for ineligible services. The Commission finds that
23 petitioners provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate that
at least 70 percent of the requested services are eligible for
support. For the remaining 36 petitioners, the Commission finds
that good cause exists to justify, on our own motion, waivers of
section 54.504(d). Released on May 8, 2007. CC Docket No. 02-6.

share for the services. In this order, the Commission finds that
the petitioners either provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate
they had the resources to make effective use of the requested eligible
services or they should have an additional opportunity to provide
the documentation to USAC. Accordingly, the Commission grants
the appeals and remands the underlying applications to USAC for

Cass Lake-Bena Schools,
ISD No. 115: In this Order, the Wireline Competition Bureau
(Bureau) deny four appeals of decisions by the Universal Service
Administrative Company (USAC) reducing or denying funding from
the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (also
known as the E-rate program) for Funding Year 2001 on the grounds
that they failed to timely submit an FCC Form 486. Under the E-rate
program, eligible schools, libraries, and consortia that include
eligible schools and libraries may apply for discounts for eligible
telecommunications services, Internet access, and internal connections.
After an applicant for discounted services under the E-rate program
has entered into agreements for eligible services with one or more
service providers, it must file an FCC Form 471 with USAC. The
FCC Form 471 notifies USAC of the services that have been ordered
and supplies an estimate of funds requested for eligible services.
USAC then issues a funding commitment decision letter indicating
the funding, if any, for which the applicant is approved to receive.
After the funding year begins and the applicant begins receiving
services at the discounted rate, the applicant submits an FCC Form
486 to USAC. The FCC Form 486 indicates that the service has begun,
specifies the service start date and demonstrates that the applicant
has received approval of its technology plans. The timely submission
of FCC Form 486 ensures that disbursements for discounts on eligible
services occur in a prompt and efficient manner. Released on March
13, 2007. CC Docket No. 02-6. (DA 07-1238)

Abington School District: In
this Order, the Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau) grants a request
by Abington School District (Abington) for review of a decision by
USAC reducing Abington’s funding from the E-rate program because
USAC determined that Abington did not have a technology plan in place
for a requested service for FY 2002. The Bureau finds that Abington
lacked sufficient notice that a technology plan was required for
Off Premise Extension lines of a Private Branch Exchange service.
The Bureau also finds that Abington demonstrated that rigid compliance
with the application procedures does not further the purposes of
section 254(h) or serve the public interest and that there is no
evidence in the record that Abington engaged in activity intended
to defraud or abuse the E-rate program. Accordingly, the Bureau waives
the technology plan rules to the extent provided in the Order and
remands the underlying application to USAC for further consideration
consistent with the Order. Released on November 14, 2006. CC Docket

- Order.: In this order, Grants a request for waiver
by Removable Media Solutions, Inc. (RMSI), a service provider filing
on behalf of Shiprock Alternative High School (Shiprock), Flagstaff,
Arizona. An invoice submitted by RMSI was denied funding by USAC because
the installation of non-recurring services took place after the implementation
deadline established under Section 54.507(d) of the Commission’s rules.
Because the implementation delay was due to factors outside of RMSI’s
control, we find that the public interest is served by waiving the
Commission’s rules and extending the implementation deadline for RMSI,
consistent with the Commission’s rules which permit extensions in such
circumstances under Section 54.507(d)(3). Also, we note for your information
that a representative from RMSI indicated, and the bank has confirmed,
that RMSI is on the verge of bankruptcy and the prompt resolution of
this case will help RMSI settle this matter. Released on 11/18/05.

Third Report and Order: The Commission adopts the
Third Report and Order and Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
today, the FCC is seeking to make the administration of the schools
and libraries program as straightforward as possible for participants,
while also ensuring the continued integrity of the program by strengthening
the procedural safeguards. The measures adopted today include: 1.
Preventing Waste, Fraud and Abuse – Prohibits the transfer of equipment
that has been purchased with universal service discounts to other
locations for three years after purchase, with limited exceptions.
1. Preventing Waste, Fraud and Abuse – Prohibits the transfer of
equipment that has been purchased with universal service discounts
to other locations for three years after purchase, with limited exceptions2.
Simplifying Program Administration – Creates a more formal and transparent
process for updating annually the list of services eligible for support.3.
Ensuring Equitable Distribution of Funds – Limits support for upgrading
or replacing internal connections to no more than twice every five
years, but exempts basic maintenance services from this restriction.
In the Second Further Notice adopted, the FCC will be seeking comment
on changing the current discount matrix used to determine the level
of discounts for which applicants are eligible, and additional measures
to further prevent waste, fraud and abuse, including whether to adopt
1) a ceiling on the total funding an applicant can request on an
annual basis; 2) strengthened requirements for technology plans;
and, 3) additional record keeping requirements. (FCC 03-323).Released

Summary: The State of Alaska asks the Commission to waive its rules
to allow others living in remote rural Alaska communities to use the
telecommunications services received by rural school districts and
libraries under the schools and libraries support program if the following
conditions are met: (1) the services used by the school district or
library are sold by the service provider on the basis of a price that
is not usage sensitive; (2) the use by others in those communities
is limited to hours in which the school or library through which the
Internet would be accessed is closed (e.g., after-school hours and
holidays); and (3) no dial-up Internet access is otherwise available

USAC's Draft Audit Report Due Date. Grants limited, 45-day extension
of the deadline for USAC's independent auditor to file its draft

books until early February, leaving the auditor with insufficient
time to complete the audit by March 1. Thus, a limited extension
is warranted and does not impair the Commission's oversight of USAC.

President signed into law the Children's Internet Protection Act
, included as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2001, Pub.
L. 106-554. CIPA provides that in order to be eligible for E-rate funding
under section 254 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, schools
and libraries that have computers with Internet access must have in
place certain Internet safety policies. Recipients must adopt and implement
an Internet safety policy that includes the operation of a technology
prevention measure, protecting against Internet access for both adults
and minors to visual depictions that are obscene, child pornography,
and, with respect to use of the computers by minors, harmful to minors.
Schools (but not libraries) must also certify that their policy includes
monitoring the online activities of minors.

Order. Common Carrier Bureau releases order clarifying
the limited waiver of the competitive bidding requirements granted
in prior extension orders also applies to the November 1, 2000 extension
order. DA 00-2900. On November 1, 2000, the Common Carrier Bureau
issued an Order which extended the September 30, 2000 deadline for
implementation of non-recurring services by applicants for universal
service support for eligible schools and libraries who were unable,
through no fault of their own, to complete installation of non-recurring
services by the deadline. Specifically, we extended the deadline
to September 30, 2001 for those applicants: (1) whose Year Two funding
commitment letters were issued by the Universal Service Administrative
Company (USAC or the Administrator) on or after April 4, 2000; (2)
who received service provider change authorizations or service substitution
authorizations from USAC on or after April 4, 2000; (3) whose service
providers were unable to complete implementation for reasons beyond
the service providers control; or (4) who have had their funding
disbursements delayed while USAC investigates their application for
program compliance. (CC Docket No.

Order. Common Carrier Bureau releases Service Provider
Identification Number (SPIN) Change Appeals Submitted by Eligible
Schools and Libraries (Copan Remand Order). In this order, CCB remanded
to USAC 31 schools and libraries appeals concerning Service Provider
change requests and directs USAC to resolve the appeals in keeping
with the Commission's March 16, 2000 Copan Order. In the Copan Order,
the Commission broadened the categories for acceptable service provider
identification number (SPIN) changes so that SPIN changes are now
permitted whenever an applicant certifies that (1) the SPIN change
is allowed under its state and local procurement rules and under
the terms of the contract between the applicant and its original
service provider, and (2) the applicant has notified its original
service provider of its intent to change service providers. Under
the previous SLD SPIN change guidelines, SPIN changes were permitted
only where the service provider: (1) refuses to participate; (2),
has gone out of business; or (3) has breached its contract. This
remand allows SLD to decide the SPIN change requests based on the
guidance in the Copan Order. (CC Docket No. 96-45) DA 00-2629: Text | Word 11/21/00
