CPUC Won't Vote on ETC, Grant Items Thursday

The California Public Utilities Commission delayed votes on eligible telecom carrier (ETC) petitions by Etheric Communications (docket A.21-01-00) and Wavelength Internet (docket A.21-01-009) until the Dec. 15 meeting, showed a hold list Monday. The CPUC postponed another telecom item that also was scheduled for this Thursday’s meeting on a proposal to award $1.4 million in California Advanced Services Fund support to 19 public housing projects (Resolution T-17775). The CPUC held the Etheric item before (see 2210200073), with a Nov. 4 proposed decision denying ETC designation but granting a certificate of public convenience and necessity (CPCN). The Wavelength proposal would similarly deny ETC status but grant a CPCN.
