NTCA Joins Industry on Joint Letter to FCC Commissioners on RDOF Issues

On January 16, 2020, NTCA and industry partners jointly filed a letter to Chairman Pai and Commissioners O'Reilly, Carr, Rosenworcel and Starks noting the need to significantly reduce the burdens of the letter of credit (LOC) requirements in the RDOF auction so that the obligations correspond more appropriately to the risks presented. The group highlighted the importance of connecting every American to broadband and stated that many of our members are motivated about the prospects of participating in the RDOF auction this year.
