WTA Meets With FCC to Discuss Competitive Overlap Proceeding

On June 19, representatives from WTA and Monte R. Lee and Company met with staff from the FCC’s Wireline Competition Bureau to discuss the competitive overlap challenge process that will determine whether or not possible “unsubsidized competitors” will be treated as being present in certain census blocks. They also discussed the competitor form that WTA had previously developed and submitted to the Bureau to address the evidentiary burdens of that challenge process.
