See Streamlined Process for Resolving Requests for Review of Decisions by the Universal Service Administrative Company, CC Docket Nos. 96-45 and 02-6, WC Docket Nos. 02-60, 06-122, 08-71, 10-90, 11-42, and 14-58, Public Notice, 29 FCC Rcd 11094 (WCB 2014). Section 54.719(b) of the Commission’s rules provides that any person aggrieved by an action taken by a division of USAC, after first seeking review at USAC, may seek review from the Commission. Section 54.719(c) of the Commission’s rules provides that parties seeking waivers of the Commission’s rules shall seek review directly from the Commission. 47 CFR § 54.719(b)-(c). In this Public Notice, we have reclassified as Requests for Waiver those appeals seeking review of a USAC decision that appropriately should have requested a waiver of the Commission’s rules. Similarly, we have reclassified as Requests for Review those appeals seeking a waiver of the Commission’s rules but that are, in fact, seeking review of a USAC decision. The deadline for filing petitions for reconsideration or applications for review concerning the disposition of any of these Requests is 30 days from the release date of this Public Notice. See 47 CFR §§ 1.106(f), 1.115(d); see also 47 CFR § 1.4(b)(2) (setting forth the method for computing the amount of time within which persons or entities must act in response to deadlines established by the Commission).

In remanding these applications to USAC, we make no finding as to the ultimate eligibility of the services or the petitioners’ applications.

Nevertheless, NEC scored higher in all other criteria evaluated, and had Brunswick scored NEC’s price for switches accurately, NEC’s bid still would have scored the highest overall total.

Madison Community Unit School District 12, IL, Application No. 181039400, CC Docket No. 02-6 (filed July 9, 2020) Upfront Recurring Charges Based on an audit finding, USAC seeks to recover funding from VC Services, LLC for recurring services that were invoiced in advance of delivery. The invoice covered all 12 months of the funding year pursuant to an annual contract and was issued during the first month of the funding year. Consistent with our obligation to conduct a de novo review of appeals of decisions made by USAC, we grant this request for review. See 47 CFR § 54.723. Based on the facts and circumstances of this case, we find that VC Services, LLC properly invoiced for the services and the services were delivered within the funding year. See, e.g., Request for Review of a Decision of the Universal Service Support Mechanism, CC Docket No. 06-6, Order, 23 FCC Rcd 15413, 15416, para. 6 (WCB 2008) (conducting de novo review of the facts and circumstances to determine that USAC's decision was in error).
