I. INTRODUCTION
1. In this order, we grant six separate requests, filed by Advanced Communications Technology, 
Inc. (ACT); Allo Communications (Allo); Aventure Communication Technology, LLC (Aventure); CC 
Cellular; PrairieWave Black Hills, LLC (PrairieWave); Texas RSA 1 Limited Partnership dba XIT 
Wireless (XIT) (collectively, the petitioners), for waivers of various high-cost universal service support 
filing deadlines set forth in sections 54.307 and 54.802 of the Federal Communications Commission’s 
(Commission) rules.1 For the reasons discussed below, we find that the petitioners have demonstrated 
that good cause warrants waiver of the Commission’s rules.

II. BACKGROUND
2. Section 254(e) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), provides that 
“only an eligible telecommunications carrier [(ETC)] designated under section 214(e) shall be eligible to 
receive specific Federal universal service support.”2 Support shall be used “only for the provision, 
maintenance, and upgrading of facilities and services for which the support is intended.”3 To implement 
this statutory requirement, the Commission has adopted various certification and data filing 
requirements.4  
3. Pursuant to section 54.307 of the Commission’s rules, a competitive local exchange carrier 
(LEC) designated as an ETC must file with the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), 
working line count data according to the following schedule:
(1) No later than July 31st of each year, submit data as of December 31st of the previous 
calendar year;
(2) No later than September 30th of each year, submit data as of March 31st of the 
existing calendar year;
(3) No later than December 30th of each year, submit data as of June 30th of the existing 
calendar year; and
(4) No later than March 30th of each year, submit data as of September 30th of the 
previous calendar year;
in order to receive high-cost support for those quarterly periods.5  
4. To receive Interstate Access Support (IAS) pursuant to section 54.802 of the Commission’s 
rules, an ETC that is providing service within an area served by a price cap LEC must file certain data 
with USAC to receive funding.6 Specifically, an ETC must submit line count data showing separately the 
number of residential/single-line business lines, and multi-line business lines within its study area on a

quarterly basis.7 Mandatory line count data are due on the last business day of March, June, September, 
and December of each year.8  
5. ACT’s Petition for Waiver.  On June 6, 2007, ACT requested a waiver of section 54.307(c)(3)
of the Commission’s rules.9 ACT missed the December 30, 2005, line count filing deadline, and instead 
filed its data on January 3, 2006, two business days after the deadline.10 ACT states that it attempted to
send the required data to USAC by electronic mail (e-mail) before the deadline but, due to transmission 
problems, USAC did not receive the e-mail. 11  ACT argues that the Commission should grant its waiver 
request because ACT attempted to send the filing before the deadline and ACT immediately corrected its 
error by filing the required data with USAC.12  In response to missing the filing deadline, ACT has 
revised its internal filing procedures by establishing additional electronic calendar reminders and 
assigning filing responsibility to two employees.13 Additionally, in the future, ACT intends to submit its 
data electronically, one week before the applicable deadline.14
6. Allo’s Petition for Waiver.  On November 30, 2007, Allo Communications requested a 
waiver of section 54.802(a) of the Commission’s rules.15 Allo missed the September 28, 2007, line count 
filing deadline, and instead filed its data on September 30, 2007, two days after the filing deadline.16 Allo 
states that it mistakenly filed its line count data for all high-cost support mechanisms on the September 
30th deadline set out in section 54.307(c)(2) of the Commission’s rules, rather than separately filing its 
IAS line count data on September 28th, as required in section 54.802(a) of the Commission’s rules.17  
Allo has committed to change its internal procedures to account for the different filing deadlines.18
7. Aventure’s Petition for Waiver. On February 11, 2008, Aventure requested a waiver of 
section 54.307(c) of the Commission rules.19 Aventure states that it unintentionally missed the December

30, 2007, deadline to file line count data.20  On January 11, 2008, Aventure discovered that it missed the 
filing deadline and sent the required data to USAC, which received the data on January 14, 2008, ten
business days after the deadline.21 To ensure future filings are timely, Aventure has assigned filing 
responsibilities to another employee and instituted internal measures involving management oversight of 
filings.22  Aventure contends that it has demonstrated there is good cause, it is in the public interest, and it 
is consistent with Commission precedent to grant its waiver request because Aventure promptly corrected 
its error, the loss of high-cost support may harm Aventure’s customers, and Aventure has taken steps to 
ensure future filings are timely.23  
8. CC Cellular’s Petition for Waiver.  On November 11, 2007, CC Cellular requested a waiver 
of the March 30, 2007, filing deadline established by section 54.307(c)(4) of the Commission’s rules.24  
CC Cellular claims to have mailed the required data before the deadline, but USAC received it on April 6, 
2007, four business days after the deadline.25 CC Cellular states that it has revised its internal filing 
procedures and will now mail the required data at least five business days before any filing deadline, use 
overnight mail, track its mailings, and verify its mailing dates.26 CC Cellular argues it is in the public 
interest to grant its waiver request because it will ensure that CC Cellular can continue to provide “quality 
service to underserved areas of rural Nevada.”27  
9. PrairieWave’s Petition for Waiver.  On April 9, 2007, PrairieWave filed a request for waiver 
of section 54.802(a) of the Commission’s rules to permit PrairieWave to receive IAS for the second 
quarter of 2007 despite it having missed the March 30, 2007, filing deadline.28 PrairieWave filed the 
required data on April 9, 2006, six business days after the deadline.29  In support of its waiver request, 
PrairieWave states that it missed the filing deadline due to a merger between its parent company and 
another company.30  PrairieWave relies on its prior compliance with the line count filing deadline 
requirements, stating that it has never before failed to meet the relevant filing date.31 PrairieWave also 
asserts that Commission precedent supports granting its waiver request because it filed the required data 
within six business days of the deadline and has committed to revise its internal filing procedures.32  
  
20 Aventure Petition at 2; 47 C.F.R. § 54.307(c).  Because December 30, 2007, fell on a Sunday, the filing was due 
the following business day, Monday, December 31, 2007.

10. XIT’s Petition for Waiver. On December 12, 2007, XIT requested a waiver of the July 31, 
2007, filing deadline established under section 54.307(c)(1) of the Commission’s rules.33 XIT asserts that 
it missed the deadline due to employee error.34  In July 2007, the employee responsible for submitting the 
required data informed XIT that all of the July filings would be submitted.35  However, the employee 
resigned and, on August 6, 2007, XIT discovered that the employee had not filed the required data.36 On 
August 17, 2007, thirteen business days after the deadline, XIT filed the required data with USAC.37 To 
ensure that future filings are timely, XIT has assigned filing responsibilities to one central manager, 
requires that all filings be finalized and reviewed by the manager fourteen days before the deadline, and 
sends filings by overnight delivery or via hand-delivery.38 XIT argues that a waiver is in the public 
interest because XIT corrected its error by immediately filing the required data, it has taken steps to 
ensure future filings are timely, and grant of its waiver request will not harm any other party.39 XIT 
claims that Commission precedent supports grant of its waiver request.40 XIT also asserts that denying its 
request would frustrate the purpose of section 254(e) of the Act.41
A. DISCUSSION
11. We find that the petitioners have demonstrated that there is good cause to waive the 
applicable sections of the Commission’s rules.42  USAC processes a tremendous amount of data each 
year.  It is, therefore, administratively necessary to require carriers to meet the filing deadlines absent 
special circumstances.43 Although our rules require that data must be received by the applicable deadline, 
we find that petitioners have demonstrated that, in these special circumstances, there is good cause to 
waive the filing deadlines.44 Specifically, we find that waivers are warranted because the petitioners

42 Generally, the Commission’s rules may be waived for good cause shown.  47 C.F.R. § 1.3.  The Commission may 
exercise its discretion to waive a rule where the particular facts make strict compliance inconsistent with the public 
interest.  Northeast Cellular Telephone Co. v. FCC, 897 F.2d 1164, 1166 (D.C. Cir. 1990) (Northeast Cellular).  In 
addition, the Commission may take into account considerations of hardship, equity, or more effective 
implementation of overall policy on an individual basis. WAIT Radio v. FCC, 418 F.2d 1153, 1159 (D.C. Cir. 
1969); Northeast Cellular, 897 F.2d at 1166.  Waiver of the Commission’s rules is therefore appropriate only if 
special circumstances warrant a deviation from the general rule, and such deviation will serve the public interest.

promptly filed the required data and have revised their internal procedures to ensure compliance with the 
Commission’s rules.  In instances where carriers have filed the required data shortly after filing deadlines, 
the Commission has waived its rules.45  The petitioners filed the required data between one and thirteen 
business days after the deadline.46 Accordingly, we find that, by filing the required data within fourteen 
business days after the applicable filing deadlines, the petitioners promptly remedied their errors.  To 
ensure the Commission deadlines are met, these petitioners have revised their filing procedures.47  We 
note that these steps are similar to those taken by other carriers who missed filing deadlines but were

for Waiver, CC Docket No. 96-45 (filed Mar. 31, 2008) (Qwest Opposition) (collectively, Aventure opponents).  
The Aventure opponents assert that the Commission should not grant Aventure’s waiver request because Aventure is 
engaged in “traffic pumping” and “access stimulation.”  Sprint Opposition at 1; AT&T Opposition at 6; Qwest 
Opposition at 1.  The issues raised by the Aventure opponents are not related to the rule waivers sought by 
Aventure, but should instead be raised in the rulemaking proceeding initiated by the Commission to address these 
issues. See Establishing Just and Reasonable Rates for Local Exchange Carriers, WC Docket No. 07-137, Notice 
of Proposed Rulemaking, 22 FCC Rcd 17989 (2007) (considering “whether the current rules governing the tariffing 
of traffic-sensitive switched access services by [LEC’s] are ensuring that rates remain just and reasonable”).  The 
Aventure opponents may also file formal complaints with the Commission.  See, e.g., Qwest Communications Corp. 
v. Farmers and Merchants Mutual Tel. Co., File No. EB-07-MD-001, Order, 22 FCC Rcd 17973 (2007) (subsequent 
history omitted) (granting in part a formal complaint brought by Qwest Communications Corp. based on similar 
issues).

granted waivers of the missed deadlines.48 In granting other waiver requests, the Commission has found 
that carriers must comply with their commitments to revise their internal procedures to ensure that their
filings will be accurately and timely submitted.49 Similarly, we rely on these petitioners to fulfill their 
commitments to adhere to their revised filing procedures, and do not expect these petitioners to seek
similar waivers in the future.  
12. We find that petitioners’ circumstances are unique and emphasize that, going forward, we 
expect petitioners to file the required information with USAC and the Commission by the applicable 
filing deadlines.  We remind carriers that it is their responsibility to ensure that their filings are timely 
received in the appropriate places, regardless of the time and method of their filings.  Carriers now have 
many options by which to file, including U.S. Mail, other sources of commercial delivery, facsimile, and 
e-mail. For instance, any carrier receiving funding from the high-cost universal support mechanism may 
file timely via e-mail at hcfilings@HCLI.universalservice.org.  Additional information regarding USAC’s 
filing procedures and deadlines can be found at http://www.usac.org/hc/tools/filing-tool/default.aspx.  We 
encourage filers to use any and all methods they deem necessary to ensure that their filings are timely 
received. In addition, due to the procedures the petitioners have enacted in response to these late filings, 
we do not expect these petitioners to seek similar waivers in the future.
