  • FCC Form 470 for failure to satisfy the 28-day bidding requirement. The Applicant then appealed to the Administrator, requesting that the 28-day competitive bidding requirement be waived. On May 21, 2002, the Administrator filed a letter seeking guidance from the Commission pursuant to section 54.702(c) of the Commission's rules. Consistent with past precedents, we conclude that a waiver of section 54.504(b)(4) of the Commission's rules is warranted in this case. Generally, the Commission may waive any provision of its rules, but a request for waiver must be supported by a showing of good cause. In the case at hand, strict compliance with our rules is inconsistent with the public interest. We find that the substantial delay in posting the second FCC

INTRODUCTION In this Order, we grant a request for review by Dallas Independent School District (Dallas) of a decision by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) denying an application for discounted services for Funding Year 2004 under the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (also known as the E-rate program). We find that Dallas did not violate section 54.504(c) of the Commission's rules, which states that an applicant for schools and libraries funding must have a legally binding agreement in place when it submits its FCC Form 471. Accordingly, we remand the appeal to USAC for action consistent with this Order and direct USAC to complete its review of the remanded application expeditiously. II.

Because all the requests for funding at issue followed USAC and the Commission's competitive bidding rules and regulations, as well as applicable state laws, as required by program rules, we conclude that Petitioners were in compliance with section 54.504(a) of the Commission's rules. Accordingly, we grant Petitioners' Requests for Review. IV.

On our own motion, however, we find that waiver of section 54.504(b) of the Commission's rules is in the public interest and warranted by the special circumstances of applicants utilizing state master contracts in Wyoming.

In a separate order released today, the Bureau denies Wyoming's Requests for Review, but, on its own motion, grants a waiver of section 54.504(b) of the Commission's rules.

In requesting the waiver, State of Alaska cited the high cost of Internet service in Alaska and the remoteness of the communities involved (some reachable only by air or water). Here,

III. DISCUSSION Section 54.504 of the Commission's rules requires applicants to seek competitive bids for services sought under the E-rate program. Applicants must ensure an open and fair competitive bidding process.

We find that the petitioners listed in appendix B have demonstrated good cause to waive sections 54.504 and 54.511 of the Commission's rules because either (1) the errors they made on their applications were ministerial or clerical and do not warrant a complete rejection of their applications; or (2) their competitive bidding processes were not compromised by their technical violation of the Commission's competitive bidding requirements.

USAC rescinded Oakland's funding on the grounds that the underlying application violated state procurement law and failed to satisfy Commission rules regarding eligible service contracts. In this order, we find that Oakland did not violate state law by entering into agreements preparatory to public works contracts. Consistent with precedent, we also grant Oakland a limited waiver of section 54.504(c) of our rules, which states that the FCC Form 471 requesting support for the services ordered by the applicant shall be submitted ``upon signing a contract for eligible services.'' We therefore grant Oakland's appeal and direct USAC to discontinue recovery actions against Oakland consistent with this order. II.

  • rules and any USAC procedural deadlines, such as the invoicing deadline, that might be necessary to effectuate our ruling. We find good cause to waive section 54.507(d) because filing an appeal of a denial of funding is likely to cause petitioners to miss the program's subsequent procedural deadlines in that funding year. We also find good cause to waive section 54.504(a) of the Commission's rules to allow Marian High School to amend its FCC Form 471 regarding the telephone service it requested. Consistent with precedent, we also waive section 54.720 of the Commission's rules for Van Alstyne Independent School District.

As a result, due to the non-usage sensitive nature of the services, services that could be used after the operating hours of schools and libraries presently go unused.

The Commission adopted a requirement, codified in section 54.504(b)(2)(ii) of the rules, that schools and libraries certify that the services obtained through discounts would be used solely for educational purposes.

  • April 18, 2007 Released: May 8, 2007 By the Commission: I. INTRODUCTION In this Order, we grant 59 appeals of decisions by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) denying petitioners' requests for funding under the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (also known as the E-rate program). The requests were denied because USAC found that the applicants violated section 54.504(d) 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. We find that 23 petitioners (Group A Petitioners) provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate that at least 70 percent of the requested services are eligible for support and thus the entire application should

We agree with USAC that the services sought by both Group C Petitioners were for ineligible entities and thus are ineligible for E-rate support. We clarify, however, that the 30 percent rule in section 54.504(d) is not applicable to requests by ineligible entities. The rule states that, ``[i]f 30 percent or more of a request for discounts made in an FCC Form 471 is for ineligible services, the request shall be denied in its entirety.'' The 30 percent rule does not extend to ineligible entities, and USAC should not apply it that way. Accordingly, for

As explained below, we find that, for 34 applicants that made ministerial or clerical errors on forms that were timely submitted, good cause exists to waive section 54.504(c) of the Commission's rules, which requires applicants to submit a completed FCC Form 471 to USAC. We also find that, for 28 applicants, good cause exists to waive section 54.504(b)(4) of the Commission's rules, which states that applicants must wait 28 days after their FCC Form 470 is posted to USAC's website or after public availability of an applicant's request

At this time, Commission rule sections 54.500, 54.501, and 54.504 all contain differently worded references to definitions of elementary and secondary schools. We first note that the existing definition of elementary school in section 54.500(c) tracks the statutory definition of an elementary school.

We also waive section 54.504(d) to permit petitioners to remove ineligible basic maintenance services from their funding requests. Finally, we eliminate the requirement, beginning funding year 2011, that a technical contract that provides for more than basic maintenance services shall be deemed ineligible for discounts.

  • states that SLD's denial of funding was erroneously based on a list of services provided and a support agreement contract, instead of the cost data New Kensington later submitted to SLD. On appeal, New Kensington asks that it receive discount funding based on this later submitted information. For the reasons set forth below, we deny New Kensington's appeal. Under section 54.504 of the Commission's rules, eligible schools, libraries and consortia must file FCC Forms 470 (``Description of Services Requested and Certification'') and 471 (``Services Ordered and Certification Form'') with the Administrator in order to receive discount funding under the schools and libraries support mechanism. The Commission's rules thus clearly contemplate that these forms constitute the means by which eligible schools, libraries,

  • also reveals that SLD did not post Runnemede's FCC Form 470 to its web site at that time, nor did it notify Runnemede that it was not doing so. The lack of 28 days posting prior to the filing of Runnemede's FCC Form 471 thus resulted from SLD's failure to timely post the FCC Form 470 in accordance with section 54.504(b)(3) of the Commission's rules. In light of the fact that SLD's failure to post Runnemede's FCC Form 470 to its web site resulted in Runnemede's non-compliance with the 28 day posting requirement set forth in 47 C.F.R. � 54.504(b)(4), we believe that a waiver of that requirement is warranted.

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

Although compliance with any applicable state and local procurement laws is one of the minimum requirements for selecting services under the E-rate program, there are also certain specific Commission requirements with which all E-rate applicants must comply. Section 54.504(a) of the Commission's rules specifically states that the Commission's ``competitive bid requirements apply in addition to state and local competitive bidding requirements.'' While Send Technologies points out that the Investigative Audit Report determined that the Union Parish employee's 15 percent interest in Send Technologies did not by itself violate Louisiana state law, Send Technologies fails to make mention of other

In requesting the waiver, State of Alaska cited the high cost of Internet service in Alaska and the remoteness of the communities involved (some reachable only by air or water). Here,

  • FCC Form 470 for failure to satisfy the 28-day bidding requirement. The Applicant then appealed to the Administrator, requesting that the 28-day competitive bidding requirement be waived. On May 21, 2002, the Administrator filed a letter seeking guidance from the Commission pursuant to section 54.702(c) of the Commission's rules. Consistent with past precedents, we conclude that a waiver of section 54.504(b)(4) of the Commission's rules is warranted in this case. Generally, the Commission may waive any provision of its rules, but a request for waiver must be supported by a showing of good cause. In the case at hand, strict compliance with our rules is inconsistent with the public interest. We find that the substantial delay in posting the second FCC

  • I. INTRODUCTION In this Order, we grant a request for review by Dallas Independent School District (Dallas) of a decision by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) denying an application for discounted services for Funding Year 2004 under the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (also known as the E-rate program). We find that Dallas did not violate section 54.504(c) of the Commission's rules, which states that an applicant for schools and libraries funding must have a legally binding agreement in place when it submits its FCC Form 471. Accordingly, we remand the appeal to USAC for action consistent with this Order and direct USAC to complete its review of the remanded application expeditiously. II.

  • concludes that the posting of the bid proposal on the USAC website is an acceptable means of assuring a competitive bidding process. Because all the requests for funding at issue followed USAC and the Commission's competitive bidding rules and regulations, as well as applicable state laws, as required by program rules, we conclude that Petitioners were in compliance with section 54.504(a) of the Commission's rules. Accordingly, we grant Petitioners' Requests for Review. IV.

The USAC decisions at issue denied funding for discounted services for Funding Years 2000 and 2001 of the schools and libraries universal service mechanism. Consistent with precedent, we deny the Requests for Review. On our own motion, however, we find that waiver of section 54.504(b) of the Commission's rules is in the public interest and warranted by the special circumstances of applicants utilizing state master contracts in Wyoming.

In a separate order released today, the Bureau denies Wyoming's Requests for Review, but, on its own motion, grants a waiver of section 54.504(b) of the Commission's rules.

In this case, we conclude that, because Idaho Falls sought a leased WAN for Internet access service, the service should have been categorized as Internet access rather than telecommunications. As a result, the services that Idaho Falls sought were eligible for funding as Priority 1 services. However, Idaho Falls' failure to categorize this service

USAC rescinded Oakland's funding on the grounds that the underlying application violated state procurement law and failed to satisfy Commission rules regarding eligible service contracts. In this order, we find that Oakland did not violate state law by entering into agreements preparatory to public works contracts. Consistent with precedent, we also grant Oakland a limited waiver of section 54.504(c) of our rules, which states that the FCC Form 471 requesting support for the services ordered by the applicant shall be submitted ``upon signing a contract for eligible services.''

We also find good cause to waive section 54.504(a) of the Commission's rules to allow Marian High School to amend its FCC Form 471 regarding the telephone service it requested.

To ensure applicants make a bona fide request for services, the Commission requires applicants to undertake a technology assessment before making a request for services. Section 54.504(b)(vii) states that in its FCC Form 470 the applicant must certify that it has a technology plan that has been certified by its state, the Administrator, or an independent entity approved by the Commission. The instructions for FCC Form 470 permit applicants to certify that their technology plan will be approved by the relevant body no later than the time

The school or library is required to comply with the Commission's competitive bidding requirements as set forth in sections 54.504 and 54.511(a) of our rules and related orders. The school or library is the entity that submits FCC Form 471, notifying the Administrator of the services that have been ordered, the service providers with whom it has entered into agreements, and an estimate of the funds needed to cover the discounts to be provided on eligible services.

We conclude that we should recover the full amount disbursed for any funding requests in which the beneficiary failed to comply with the Commission's competitive bidding requirements as set forth in section 54.504 and 54.511 of our rules and amplified in related Commission orders. For instance, it is appropriate to recover the full amount of funds disbursed for a funding request when the beneficiary signs a contract before the end of the 28-day posting period.

INTRODUCTION In this Order, we grant 59 appeals of decisions by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) denying petitioners' requests for funding under the schools and libraries universal service support mechanism (also known as the E-rate program). The requests were denied because USAC found that the applicants violated section 54.504(d) 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. We find that 23 petitioners (Group A Petitioners) provided sufficient evidence to demonstrate that at least 70 percent of the requested services are eligible for support and thus the entire application should

We agree with USAC that the services sought by both Group C Petitioners were for ineligible entities and thus are ineligible for E-rate support. We clarify, however, that the 30 percent rule in section 54.504(d) is not applicable to requests by ineligible entities. The rule states that, ``[i]f 30 percent or more of a request for discounts made in an FCC Form 471 is for ineligible services, the request shall be denied in its entirety.'' The 30 percent rule does not extend to ineligible entities, and USAC should not apply it that way. Accordingly, for

We also find that, for 28 applicants, good cause exists to waive section 54.504(b)(4) of the Commission's rules, which states that applicants must wait 28 days after their FCC Form 470 is posted to USAC's website or after public availability of an applicant's request

  • states that SLD's denial of funding was erroneously based on a list of services provided and a support agreement contract, instead of the cost data New Kensington later submitted to SLD. On appeal, New Kensington asks that it receive discount funding based on this later submitted information. For the reasons set forth below, we deny New Kensington's appeal. Under section 54.504 of the Commission's rules, eligible schools, libraries and consortia must file FCC Forms 470 (``Description of Services Requested and Certification'') and 471 (``Services Ordered and Certification Form'') with the Administrator in order to receive discount funding under the schools and libraries support mechanism.

  • also reveals that SLD did not post Runnemede's FCC Form 470 to its web site at that time, nor did it notify Runnemede that it was not doing so. The lack of 28 days posting prior to the filing of Runnemede's FCC Form 471 thus resulted from SLD's failure to timely post the FCC Form 470 in accordance with section 54.504(b)(3) of the Commission's rules. In light of the fact that SLD's failure to post Runnemede's FCC Form 470 to its web site resulted in Runnemede's non-compliance with the 28 day posting requirement set forth in 47 C.F.R. � 54.504(b)(4), we believe that a waiver of that requirement is warranted. Under these circumstances, we remand Runnemede's application to SLD for reprocessing

The Bureau finds that Dallas did not violate section 54.504(c) of the Commissions rules, which states that an applicant for schools and libraries funding must have a legally binding agreement in place when it submits its FCC Form 471.

In Joint Board, the Commission granted the State of Alaska a limited waiver of Section 54.504(b)(2)(v) of the Rules to allow members of certain remote communities to use excess service obtained with E-rate support when the services were not in use by schools or libraries. In requesting the waiver, State of Alaska cited the high cost of Internet service in Alaska and the remoteness of the communities involved (some reachable only by air or water). Here,
