Comment Dates Set for Mobile Data Roaming Rulemaking
Last week, the FCC's Order on Reconsideration and FNPRM regarding Mobile Voice and Data Roaming (formally adopted at the Commission's April 21 open meeting) were published in the Federal Register. As a result, the clock has started for comments to the FNPRM, with initial comments due June 14 and reply comments due July 12. (As for the Order on Reconsideration, which eliminates the home roaming exclusion for voice and related services (currently codified at 47 C.F.R. 20.12), the rule amendment goes into effect on May 28, 2010.)
As of this posting, the FCC's other broadband proceedings from the April 21 open meeting (i.e., USF Reform, Cable Gateway/CableCARD, Broadband Survivability, and Cyber Security Certification) have not been published, and thus, the comment dates have not been set yet. We will, of course, let you know when that happens.
