The Federal Communications Commission’s Wireless Telecommunications Bureau has released a Public Notice setting opposition and reply deadlines for an Application for Review filed by the Rural Wireless Association on March 29, 2018. RWA filed an application for review in which it asks the Commission to modify its Mobility Fund Phase II Challenge Process procedure to require the use of a uniform grid with cells of one square mile and a one-quarter mile “buffer” radius instead of square kilometer grid cells and a one-quarter kilometer “buffer” radius. RWA argued that the kilometer based standards adopted by the FCC will make challenges to eligible areas difficult and result in faulty MFII mapping data. Oppositions will be due April 27, 2018, and replies to oppositions will be due May 7, 2018.
