| April 14, 2008 | |
|
USAC will begin issuing Internal Connections and Basic Maintenance of Internal Connections funding commitments at the 81% discount rate for Funding Year 2007. The 81% discount rate will mark the final discount threshold for the year as USAC will reject any Priority Two request at 80% or below. The 81% discount threshold is lower than the established threshold for Funding Year 2006, which is 86%. Currently, there is approximately $658 million in pending Priority Two funding requests at or above the 81% discount rate, with a total of $878 million pending for all service categories that can be considered potentially fundable. |
