Inquiry Concerning Advanced Telecommunications Capability

On August 7, 1998, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released a Notice of Inquiry to solicit comment about the availability of advanced telecommunications capability to all Americans. The Notice seeks comment from businesses, consumers, public interest groups, and others on what the statutory meaning of ``advanced telecommunications capability'' should include. In addition, the Notice seeks comment on the current and future availability of advanced telecommunications capability and the likelihood that it will be deployed to all Americans. Finally, the Notice seeks comment on what action the FCC should take if it finds that advanced telecommunications capability is not being deployed to all Americans in a reasonable and timely fashion.
