FCC Fines Westel $400K for Telecom Reporting Worksheet Violations

The FCC fined Westel $400,000 for apparently failing to file annual and quarterly telecom reporting worksheets and failing to respond fully to an Enforcement Bureau letter of inquiry on compliance. Westel "failed repeatedly to file or to file on time a total of 14 worksheets," said the order, released Thursday. Westel didn't comment.
