Common Carrier Bureau Seeks Comment on Proposals To Revise the Methodology for Determining Universal Service Support

In this Public Notice, the Common Carrier Bureau (Bureau) describes certain proposals by outside parties to alter the methodology for determining high cost universal service support based on forward- looking economic costs. Some parties have filed petitions for reconsideration or judicial appeals of the methodology announced in the May 8, 1997 Universal Service Order and the Commission has committed to complete the reconsideration of its methodology before it is implemented for non-rural carriers. This Public Notice seeks additional proposals to modify the methodology, as well as comment on the existing proposals.
