WTA Expresses Concerns about FCC Plans for E-ACAM True-Ups

Today, WTA filed comments in response to the FCC Public Notice of January 25, 2024, on the Enhanced A-CAM Eligible Locations True-Up. In its comment, WTA states that the Public Notice departs from repeated FCC and Wireline Competition Bureau pre-election statements and assurances to use August 30, 2023 as the cut-off date for unsubsidized competitor service and enforceable commitments for the Enhanced ACAM program. Instead, the Public Notice proposes the use of December 31, 2023. WTA asserts that the FCC’s policies “remain wholly consistent with the parameters specified by the FCC and Bureau…which were materially and detrimentally relied upon by WTA members and other RLECs in the making of their Enhanced A-CAM elections.”
