FCDL Comment:
MR1:Modified by SLD Per FCC Order 14-189, to prevent warehousing of excess fiber capacity, applicants may only receive funding for special construction charges for a Self-provisioned network if it constructed and lit within the same funding year. If excess strands are being installed that will not be lit during the current FY and will remain dormant until lit for the applicant’s exclusive future use; the applicant must provide a cost allocation for the cost of the unlit strands. The applicant provided the following cost allocation calculation of $7,356.60. During the Fiber Review, it was determined that the calculation should be $8,069.30. Therefore, this FRN has been modified from $438,000.00 to $429,930.70 to account for the fiber strands that will not be lit during this FY.
