Wireline Bureau Extends E-rate Service Delivery Deadline

The FCC Wireline Bureau extended the E-rate service implementation deadline until Sept. 30, 2023, for FY 2020 and FY 2021 applicants with nonrecurring service deadlines, said a public notice Monday in docket 02-6. The bureau cited continued delays in delivering and installing equipment and services due to "labor and equipment shortages from the global supply chain disruptions" caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
