FCDL Comment:
DR1:During the Fiber Review, the applicant failed to respond to the Administrator’s Fiber Review Information Request to determine if the fiber solution can be exempt from the funding year 2017 competitive bidding requirements of the requested fiber solution. Therefore, this FRN is denied.||MR1:The FRN was modified from Ethernet to (No Special Construction) to agree with the applicant documentation.||MR2:Although non-recurring installation charges may occur and be invoiced before 7/1 of the FY (i.e. installation of Category One non-recurring services may occur as early as January 1 under certain conditions and installation of Category Two non-recurring services can occur as early as April 1 prior to the July 1 start of the funding year), the FCC Form 471 must list 7/1 of the funding year as the SSD. If your FRN contains any non-recurring installation charges that occurred prior to July 1 of the funding year, those charges may still be eligible for E-rate reimbursement during the invoicing process if all other eligibility conditions are met.
