| 2010-4688 | Schools and Libraries Universal Service Support Mechanism | Proposed Rule | In the companion order that accompanied a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), the Commission enabled schools that receive funding from the E-rate program (more formally, the schools and libraries universal service support program) to allow members of the general public to use the schools' Internet access during non-operating hours. The Commission waived, on its own motion, through funding year 2010 (which ends June 30, 2011), rules that currently discourage public use of resources funded under the E-rate program. In the NPRM, the Commission seeks comment on revising its rules to make this change permanent. This change will leverage universal service funding to serve a larger population at no increased cost to the E-rate program. The general public will be able to use the Internet access already present in schools, at the schools' discretion, for purposes such as job searches and applications, digital literacy programs, and online access to governmental services and resources. | 2010-03-05 | 2010 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2010/03/05/2010-4688/schools-and-libraries-universal-service-support-mechanism | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2010-03-05/pdf/2010-4688.pdf | Federal Communications Commission | 161 | In the companion order that accompanied a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), the Commission enabled schools that receive funding from the E-rate program (more formally, the schools and libraries universal service support program) to allow members of... |
