FCC Delays Broadband Data Comment Deadlines by Three Weeks

The FCC Wireless Bureau on Friday agreed to delay by three weeks the comment deadlines on a Further NPRM on the broadband data collection process as sought by CTIA, USTelecom and the Competitive Carriers Association (see 2408260010). With the delay, comments are now due Oct. 7, replies Nov. 5 in docket 19-195. “Given the importance of receiving both timely and accurate BDC data submissions as well as robust input on the questions raised in the Fourth Further Notice, we find there is good cause to grant Joint Petitioners’ request,” the bureau said.
