The FCC Wireline Bureau reversed 11 E-rate decisions by the Universal Service Administrative Co., it said in an order Thursday (http://fcc.us/1wu8jEv). USAC had found petitioners didn’t get an extension of deadlines for service implementation, but in each case, “petitioners were unable to complete implementation on time for reasons beyond the service providers’ control, one of the criteria required by the rule for an extension of services implementation,” the bureau said in the order. “Petitioners made significant efforts to secure the necessary extensions,” it said, noting no evidence of waste, fraud or abuse.
