NTCA Supports Additional Time For Compliance with Affordable Connectivity Program Usage Monitoring Rule

(Mar 31) In comments filed with the FCC, NTCA asked for additional time for members to comply with the ACP program’s “non-usage” provisions. These require that providers track the broadband usage of ACP-enrolled subscribers that are not assessed any monthly charges after the application of the program subsidy to their bill – NTCA stated that smaller providers cannot comply with this rule by April 15 and asked the FCC to delay it and consider less burdensome alternatives.
