Subject: [WISPAMembers] FCC Affordable Connectivity Program Order and
FNPRM On Transparency Collection
To: <dave.taht at gmail.com>


I am attaching a summary of the Federal Communications Commission’s
(FCC) Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) Transparency Order and
Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (FNPRM) that WISPA’s outside
counsel, Lerman Senter, prepared.  WISPA greatly appreciates Lerman
Senter’s excellent advocacy in this proceeding!  Their advocacy
resulted in several important policy victories in this proceeding that
I have listed below.  I also want to thank the firm for their quick
summary of the Order and FNPRM.  I have also attached a link to the
actual FCC Order and FNPRM.

Key WISPA Policy Wins:

(1) Requiring only the collection of aggregate numbers of ACP
households; no requirement yet for a subscriber level collection.
(2) Not requiring the collection and publication of take rates and churn rates.
(3) Tailoring the base forfeiture amounts to an ACP provider’s number
of ACP households.
(4) Requiring only annual publication of the aggregated number of ACP
households.
(5) Reliance on the broadband labels to collect plan price and
characteristic information and consistency with broadband labels in
reporting of price information.
(6) Aggregating data at the ZIP Code level on a “snapshot” date.
