A 30-day extension for data from inmate calling service providers was granted by the FCC Wireline Bureau in an order (http://bit.ly/1tIT6R9) posted in docket 12-375 and released in Monday’s Daily Digest. Petitions by CenturyLink, Global*Tel Link, Inmate Calling Solutions, Network Communications International Corp. and Telmate for 60- or 90-day extensions were denied because they would delay commission action, the order said. A shorter extension was granted, because of “the scope of the data request and our interest in obtaining accurate and complete responses,” the order said. The data now are due Aug. 18, the order said.
