 ORDER 
 Adopted:  February  28,  2002  Released:  March  6,  2002 
 By  the  Accounting  Policy  Division,  Common  Carrier  Bureau: 
 1.  Before  the  Accounting  Policy  Division  is  a  Request  for  Review  filed  by  Winchester  Public  Schools  (Winchester),  Winchester,  Virginia,  seeking  review  of  a  decision 
 issued  by  the  Schools  and  Libraries  Division  (SLD)  of  the  Universal  Service  Administrative  Company  (Administrator).  1  Winchester  seeks  review  of  SLD’s  denial  of  its  FCC  Form  471 
 application,  stating  that  Winchester's  application  did  not  meet  the  filing  requirements  for  the  2001-  2002  Schools  and  Libraries  filing  window.  2  However,  since  the  Request  for  Review  was 
 filed,  SLD  has  issued  an  Administrator's  Decision  on  Appeal,  informing  Winchester  that  its  appeal  has  brought  forward  persuasive  information  that  its  funding  requests  should  be  reviewed.  3 
 Winchester’s  Request  for  Review  is  therefore  dismissed  as  moot.
