Comment Deadline Set for “Community Use” Rulemaking

During the FCC’s February open meeting, the Commission adopted an Order temporarily waiving FCC regulations for the remainder of FY 2009 and through FY 2010 which would enable schools to “allow members of the general public to use the schools’ Internet access during non-operating hours.”  The Rulemaking has now been published in the Federal Register and the FCC is seeking comments on making the “community use” rule permanent.
